Gratuities

Gratuities are not included in the cruise fare. They are added automatically to your onboard account during the cruise, and at Guest Services you can change the amount or settle in cash. A separate service charge equivalent to 15% is automatically added to bar, beverage and deck service checks. It is customary to prepare cash separately for tips to local guides and drivers at ports of call.

Payment

Cashless onboard

Medical facilities

Every ship has a medical center run by a medical partner company, with doctors and nurses on staff to handle sudden illness and emergencies. Consultations, treatment and medication are charged to your onboard account, and no specific fee schedule is published.

Bringing items onboard

Wine, champagne, beer and spirits can be brought on board at embarkation without limit. Alcohol purchased at ports of call can also be brought back and drunk on board. Drinking alcohol you have brought is unrestricted in your cabin, and in practice no corkage fee is charged even when drinking it in shared areas such as restaurants.

Mobile and connectivity

Regular land-based roaming is not available at sea. Depending on the sea area, satellite-based maritime roaming may connect, but it is not covered by regular international roaming plans and carries a risk of large bills. After departure, the usual precaution is to switch to airplane mode and use WhatsApp, FaceTime and the like over the free onboard Wi-Fi.
