Thread: Do NOT need to pack list

Over the years we've had many Must Pack Lists so let's do a list of what you do NOT need to take. Knowing what is not needed is as important as what is.

I'll get you started. PLEASE PLEASE add additional.

NOT Needed List

Beach Towels

Clothes Hangers (Room steward will provide all you need)

Clothes Hamper (Empty suitcase works great)

Small Bills (Purser's Desk will break the larger ones for you)

Bungee Cord (Use a chair or table)

Food/Snacks (Lots of food awaits on the ship)

More than two formal outfits ... no matter how long the cruise

This is a great idea for a threaad, Lulu!
Going to have to put my thinking cap on. Sure hope others will, too.
THANK YOU.

At the risk of embarrassing myself, but in the spirit of complete openness, my packing list clearly does NOT include pajamas!

Actually, my list has been created over the years to make sure that I don't forget something very important. If something isn't on my list, then I have clearly decided that I don't need it!

O I ALWAYS take pj's
Always

Clothes Hamper (Empty suitcase works great)

If an empty suitcase isn't possible, take a large trash bag and fill that. Then when you repack to leave, everything still fits. I still use the suitcases, only put some things away and hang a few.

I don't take an over the door hanger, I have found everything fits in the bathroom & drawers, nite stands in the cabin.

Us posh people alway bring PJ's for use under out posh robes on our balconies....

Don't need 6 pair of shoes for night time. Can use one formal pair and 2 others at most. And really don't need more than 3 pair of shoes for the daytime.

Rather than have members take up valuable packing space with an item that's clearly not needed, you were willing l to embarrass yourself!

A different outfit for every evening and definitely for the daytime. With luggage constraints, compact packing is becoming more and more necessary. I never remember what other passengers wear.
