Keeping cruise ships clean has been an even bigger priority since the Covid pandemic closed down the cruise industry.

Now, unless you stay in a luxury hotel, chances are you're getting the shampoo, body wash, and conditioner dispensers in the shower. In some cases, like you do on Royal Caribbean cruise ships in non-suite rooms you might be stuck with a single dispenser full of a combined shampoo/conditioner/body wash.

Many people take a cruise to escape reality. They may want to get away from their job, their family, and the stress of everyday life. In addition, some people want to get a respite from the political strife dividing the nation and the world.

Cruisers usually understand the idea that you should avoid certain topics on cruise ships. That usually starts with politics and religion. Yes, there are always a few people wearing overly political T-shirts (and almost always one man over the age of 80 in head-to-toe Donald Trump gear) but most people try to keep those things off the ships.
