11 Cruise Rules That Are ALLOWED… But Passengers Think They Should Be BANNED!
11 Cruise Rules That Are ALLOWED… But Passengers Think They Should Be BANNED! Some cruise ship habits are technically allowed, but that does not mean other passengers are happy about them. In this video, we look at 11 cruise rules, cruise behaviours, and onboard habits that passengers are still allowed to do, even though many cruisers think they should be banned. From cruise elevator etiquette and buffet behaviour to pyjamas at breakfast, loud phone calls, queue jumping, hallway noise, wet swimwear indoors, strong perfume, and public meltdowns at Guest Services, these are the small cruise habits that can quickly turn into big arguments onboard. Cruise ships are shared spaces, and sometimes the most annoying things on a cruise are not major rule-breaking moments. They are the little things passengers do without thinking. Holding up elevators, blocking buffet lines, saving seats for too long, coughing near shared food, wearing robes to the buffet, or treating public areas like private lounges can all make other cruisers wonder the same thing: should this still be allowed? This video is all about cruise etiquette, cruise passenger behaviour, cruise rules, and the unwritten rules of cruising that every cruiser should know before their next cruise. Whether you are a first-time cruiser, a senior cruiser, a regular cruise passenger, or someone planning a cruise in 2026, these are the cruise habits that often divide opinions. Some people believe passengers are overreacting and everyone should relax because they are on holiday. Others think cruise lines should make clearer rules before these little annoyances ruin the experience for everyone else. So which cruise behaviour would you ban if you had the power? Pyjamas in the buffet? Loud FaceTime calls? Queue jumping? Elevator hogging? Buffet hygiene mistakes? Let us know in the comments, because this one is definitely going to split cruise passengers right down the middle.
