7. Disembark Last

Being the organized cruiser you are, you probably think heading to disembark first will probably get you off the ship fastest. Not so. Wait it out, and you’ll miss the lines. If you’re in no rush to get to the airport, it’s best to let all the other passengers off the ship first, and exit only when the last call is announced. Bonus: Your bags will be much easier to find now that most other passengers have cleared out.
