I just kind of always assume that there's going to be no intimacy time when traveling with family, and be delightfully surprised when there is. In 20 years of marriage with regular (yearly, ish) family travel, I have yet to be surprised.

There are usually a lot of events on-board. Could you sign her up for something that wouldn't be weird for you to not attend? Are you attending any events *with* her? It's one thing to say "yes, that sounds like a good deal", and it's another to get there and realize that you're a compensated baby sitter; might not be sitting well.

Do you have any excursions booked, assuming you're hitting destinations outside of the US? Make sure she knows (and you two also) that you need to be back on-ship at the right time because they *will not wait for you*.
