    Add the cruise line, ship, sailing dates, cabin information, booking references and everyone travelling with you.

  2. Build the trip hub

    Add ports, excursions, checklists, payments, documents and reminders so every moving part has a proper home.

  3. Stay ready to sail

    Use the countdown and readiness checks to see what is done, what needs attention and what is coming next.
