Life on Cruise Ships and Key Facts

Cruise ships can be likened to floating deluxe hotels equipped with the latest technology. You can follow the daily program outlining activities from the ship's newspaper distributed to your cabin the evening before each day. Think of this newspaper as a bulletin containing all information about what will happen on board that day, including all activities within the ship, weather forecasts, details about ports of call, contact information for reservations at specialty restaurants or spas, and more.

Upon boarding the ship, you must check in your luggage, hand over your passport, and provide credit card details (a deposit may be required for potential expenses) at the check-in desk located at the ship's entrance. Your passport will be returned to you only at the end of the tour after being handed over at the beginning of the journey. After submitting your passport to the ship, you will receive a Boarding Card from the cruise line. This card serves as both your passport substitute and your cabin key, and is used for all transactions on board. The Boarding Card displays various information such as your first and last name, cabin number, and dining session.

There is a dress code for passengers on board the ship. Since there are special events such as the Captain's Welcome Dinner and Gala Night, we kindly request that you bring elegant and classic attire. You can track these events, including the Gala Night and Welcome Dinner, via the ship's newspaper mentioned earlier. Additionally, the dress code is specified in the bulletin.

Cruise ships offer open buffet restaurants where you can eat something at any time throughout 20 hours of the day. In addition to breakfast, lunch, and dinner included in your fare at the main restaurant, there are fast-food outlets and buffets available. Specialty concept restaurants are also available on board, such as Thai restaurants and steakhouses. You can make reservations in advance to enjoy special meals prepared by dedicated chefs at these venues. Thematic restaurants are subject to an additional charge.

Cruise ships offer numerous facilities and activities for families traveling with children. Onboard, there are children's pools and play clubs where kids can spend their time.

Cruise ships are designed by engineers to minimize motion during travel, and ship captains are specially trained. Smoking is prohibited in all indoor areas of the ship, including your cabin. You may smoke on the open deck unless there is a sign prohibiting it; smoking areas with ashtrays are available. Ships have doctors and nurses on board, and accessible cabins for guests with disabilities are also provided.
