In this one I walk you through a calm, five-minute personal safety routine to do on your very first day aboard, so you are quietly prepared without a drop of fear. We cover the new app and stateroom-TV muster drill and why you still must check in at your station in person before sailing, how to find your muster station on your key card and the back of your cabin door, and the counting-the-doors walk to your station and the nearest stairs for when the lights are gone and the elevators are off. I also cover where life jackets live and trying one on, the seven-short-one-long emergency signal, a simple bedside kit of shoes, flashlight, medications and documents, and why you should tell the crew in advance if you would need help evacuating. Cruising is very safe, and this is simply about being prepared. A gentle, honest note: always follow your own ship's current safety instructions and crew directions, which take priority over anything here. This channel is general travel information, not professional safety advice.
