What If You Miss the Ship?

Clear answers for today’s cruise travelers.

Important Rules

If you miss the ship, the cruise line is not responsible. You will lose the full fare in most cases. Always arrive at the port early and consider travel insurance that covers missed departures.

If the ship leaves without you in a foreign port, you must get to the next port on your own.
