I don't know if they adhere to it, but I believe it says one suitcase per person, as well as your carry on things.Wait I'm confused, Disney Cruiseline limits the amount of luggage you can bring?

Thanks, you prompted me to do a little digging.I don't know if they adhere to it, but I believe it says one suitcase per person, as well as your carry on things.
no, not really. You just have to have space to store your luggage. Nesting luggage will take less space. Under the bed will hold 4 - 6 suitcases easily, but not the very large suitcase (50 lbs of clothes and shoes in only 66% of the suitcase).Wait I'm confused, Disney Cruiseline limits the amount of luggage you can bring?
Thanks. I wonder where I got that "1 suitcase per person" from? I won't have more than that (flying), but I do read about others that do, so it makes more sense.Thanks, you prompted me to do a little digging.
Mom's Park panel - 2 checked bags per person. https://disneyparksmomspanel.disney...ictions-carryon-checked-disney-cruise-252449/
DCL site: 2 bag tags are provided per person: https://disneycruise.disney.go.com/faq/preparing-for-cruise/luggage-tags/
Though to be fair, the Cruiseline site does not say that is all you are entitled to as we all know the porters will have extras at the drop off point at the terminal. Not sure how it works for bus riders.
We have taken 6 bags for 3 people previously. Though 1.5 luggage was just with fish extender stuff in it.
We actually use baggies as our packing cubes. This way, we can suck all the air out of the baggies and have more room for items. Just need to be wary of the wrinkles it can cause.
I just weighed one of the largest ones I have, using a luggage scale, and it didn't even register. I have 20 some pieces, which all pack into one medium sized one for storage, and they only weigh 2.6 lbs altogether. While of course they will add a bit, weight is not something I would worry about with packing cubes. They are made of light nylon.They do add weight, so consider that.
We use them for the little things, sock, underwear, etc. Each person has their own for this.
My husband SWEARS by the folder clothing holders by Eagle Creek. He's a big guy, and it keeps his shirts from looking horrible. These are awesome.
I started with an order of three different sizes. It came as a package. I found that they worked so well for us that I ordered lots more in various colors. You can't go wrong with the three standard size package, you will always find something to do with each one. I suggest you start with that but not everyone will agree. At least when you have the there sizes you can then figure out your own needs and order more in what ever size you feel suits you best going forward. What I use/have probably would be different than what you may need. With packing cubes each family will be different and will use them differently (as you can probably tell by the above posts). I pack using a different color for each person. Some pack using a different color for each day.So for those of you who love the packing cubes, how do you find a set online that will fit just right in your suitcase? In the pics, it always looks like a perfect little puzzle with no wasted space. But not all suitcases are the same dimensions, so how do you make sure they will fit in a way to actually maximize your space before ordering?
Or can they be arranged in enough different ways that it is not really an issue? I just know we're going to need to use all the space we have.
Or, when I get linens and they come in the vinyl, zip pouches, save them up. They serve the same purpose and are sturdy.
As for maximizing space, they do fit like a puzzle and I seldom pack them in the same way twice.
