'I'm a cruise expert - you can be banned for life for bringing these items on board' A cruise ship expert has issued a stark warning to holidaymakers planning on bringing unusual items onboard.
"All cruise lines ban any extension cord with a surge protector feature," warns Gary, explaining that unlike at home, these are incompatible with the ship's electrical system and could potentially cause a fire in your cabin.
Gary Bembridge has revealed that many cruise lines have a list of prohibited items that could potentially get you banned for life if not adhered to.
He explains that there are several items, often banned for safety reasons, that travellers should definitely avoid packing before embarking on a cruise.
Gary, a seasoned cruiser, shared that Bluetooth speakers are now banned on Carnival cruise line for safety reasons.
