Don't Worry About Getting Seasick.
Most modern cruise ships are so big that seasickness is rarely a problem, they also tend to avoid areas with rougher weather and have stabilizers fitted to reduce the ship's side-to-side motion. This being said, it can't hurt to pack some Dramamine just in case.
Don't Book Last Minute.
Whereas booking late may be beneficial when flying or booking a package holiday, with cruises the opposite seems to apply. Cruise lines tend to offer their best prices first, then, as demand increases and ships sell out they raise them.
Also, booking early gives you a better pick of the cabins available.
Don't Book Off-Season.
Booking a cruise off-season can be a lot cheaper, less overcrowded, and even offer special promotions, but, the weather will probably be worse, excursions could be canceled and some activities may not even be available. So, although by booking off-season you may save hundreds of dollars if you only go on holiday once a year it probably isn't worth risking spending it stuck in a cabin on a choppy sea.
Don't book Cruise Line Excursions
Cruise line excursions are less hassle and you'll be sure to get back to the ship on time, but they are more expensive, often underwhelming and they'll make you feel like cattle being herded around. In places where the port is a long way from the sights a Cruise line excursion makes sense but in places like Monte Carlo where you can walk to the castle and casino, or St Thomas where you can get a taxi to the beach you're better off going alone! Although be sure to get back on time!
Don't Pick A Cruise Based On Your Age.
Just because you are young it doesn't mean you love clubbing and just because you're old it doesn't mean you're in bed by 8. Pick your cruise based on the events and activities that it offers and not the age group that it is marketed for.
