We are going to try this next cruise. It will help that we have learned to travel carryon only recently, so only one small bag per person.
But, for me, the main benefit will be not packing on the night before disembarking. I despise doing that! We often come back earlier than I want from
Castaway Cay so that we have time to get it all done before dinner. But worse is that reminder all day that the cruise has come to an end and we must pack.
We are early risers, so I would much rather get up at 6:30 the next morning and pack everything then. Disembarking day is already sad, so adding the packing to it won't take away from it and will leave the day before to be a regular cruise day.
