Packing light isn’t a priority for me on cruises. And I’m at the end of a 9 day stay with friends durin which I’ve loved out of a carryon and “personal item” to use airline words.
But for cruises? Nah
That said, I pack for the “just in case”. My carryon roller bag has my pretty clothes, a pair of comfy nice shoes that coordinate with all dresses, my swimsuits and coverup, sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, makeup, hair hoop, and kindle.
Everything else is in a checked bag. If the checked bag doesn’t make it onto the ship, I’ve got my essentials in carryon.
