When we're going on a cruise, we travel with two computers, two iPhones, two cameras and two iPads. You can debate whether as intrepid cruise writers we need all of that equipment if you like, but it's a debate you'll lose.<\/span><\/p>\n

And as we've been going through airport security, we've often wondered — when we've been delayed going through the human scanner and our equipment has cleared the bag scanner — who's watching?<\/span><\/p>\n

It never occurred to us the same fear could be applied when boarding a cruise ship.<\/span><\/p>\n

The basic problem is the same: when you are separated from your hand luggage for whatever reason<\/i>, nobody is assuming the responsibility of whatever you have in carryon.<\/span><\/p>\n

Right?<\/span><\/p>\n
