I wanted to share a thought one bad habit every cruiser should avoid.While most cruise passengers are courteous, and considerate - there are things everyone should follow to make sure they are respectful, and make pleasant companions. For example:Follow every precaution to avoid bringing or spreading Norovirus. Cruise lines cannot prevent the virus being brought on board, and they rely on passengers to be honest. If there's an outbreak on a ship, it creates an enormous amount of extra duties for the crew, on top of their existing responsibilities, and it's a highly disrespectful way to treat fellow cruisers. I've been on a ship where there was an outbreak. The key reason it spread was that passengers followed neither the advice on sanitization nor the quarantine requirements after contracting the virus. Wash your hands with soap and water regularly, and use the antibacterial gel placed around the ship. Follow the guidance and stay in your cabin if you contract a virus.Listen to the next episode for another bad habit to avoid
