Thread: What is the one thing you wish...

What is the one item you wish other passengers on your cruise had left at home?

Uptight attitude that nothing is ever as good as it is at home, or as good as their last cruise.
This is a minority, thank goodness, but always quite a vocal minority.

Their children. There was this one bratty kid on my last cruise who kept showing up everywhere - cutting in line at the buffet, sticking his fingers in stuff, trying to get in front of the camera whenever they were filming, knocking people over on the ice rink, hitting the golf ball hard on the mini-golf, basically being a major pain. Most of the other children were fine. This one child needed to learn some manners.

They're "better than you" attitude that can be experienced on some cruise ships, especially a specific cruise line that I have been on.

The overall rudeness of some people who have no respect for ohers.

Phones.

There is no need to have a phone on a ship when an email is quieter, more efficient and can be a keepsake too.

I hate the sound of ringtones blaring and hearing conversations at equally high volume when I am on holiday.

After that its unruly kids, stuck up attitudes and general disrespectful behaviour.

Super duper drunk people who are almost stripteasing at the pool while kids are around.

There was a family on board our last cruise who should have left their kids at home...and they should had stayed home too. Or at least traveled someplace where they wouldn't come into contact with anyone else.

I'm not looking forward to the day when cell phones work on ships at sea. Especially after dealing with people driving while talking, walking around while talking (not paying attention in parking lots and in stores), gabbing away at restaurants...

Another vote for Cell Phones! We cruise to GET AWAY from those darn things!
