Calling everyone with a septum piercing, I need some help.

UPDATE: thanks everyone, your input has been super helpful😘

I'm turning 20 this year and am closer than ever to getting my first tat or piercing, I think it's finally time. I have a lot of things I want on my "body mod bucket list" but right now I can only do one little thing. here's my question, would getting my septum pierced while on my week long cruise be a bad idea? I've scoured the internet but can't really find any helpful info. For all of you that have your septum pierced, did it hurt more, less, or the same amount as getting your ears pierced? I understand that pain tolerance varies from person to person, but still. And how long did it take to completely heal? At the end of my vacation should it be healed enough to flip it up to hide from my parents?
