| What flight and
departure times can I take? |
You should plan to arrive at the nearest airport closes to
your port of departure at least three hours before embarkation
begins. Board all most ships start around 12.30pm and stops
around 1 hour prior to departure. If you’re late, the
ship will sail without you.

Menu
| What happens if my flight is
delayed or cancelled? |
If you have purchased travel insurance or arranged air through
the cruise line, you are eligible for reimbursement costs
incurred while catching up with your ship at its next port
of call (cost to get new tickets or hotel stays). This applies
only to carrier-caused delays or other covered reasons, but
check with your insurance vendor before travel.
If you have arranged air privately and have not purchased
travel insurance, you are responsible for all costs incurred
while catching up with your ship at its next port of call.
We highly recommend taking insurance!

| Can I customize my air through
the cruise line? |
Yes. You can customize your flight by selecting the airlines,
dates, times, departure cities, and other flight-related options
of your choice. The cruise lines may charge from $35 or more
per person for this service, in addition to any airline charges.

Menu
| Should I book air through the
cruise line? |
Booking air through the cruise line protects you if your
flight is delayed and you either miss your cruise or are running
late. If you are running late for your cruise, cruise line
representatives will make every effort to get you to the ship
before departure. If you miss your cruise altogether, the
cruise line will reimburse you up to $500 in costs incurred
while catching up with your ship at its next port of call.
In addition, air rates offered by the cruise lines are often
less expensive than those available to the general public--especially
on holidays and during high seasons--and the departure times
and dates ensure that you will reach your departure port on
time, barring any prolonged delays.

Menu
| How much are transfers from
airport to ship? |
Transfer costs depend entirely on the cruise line, your airport
of arrival, and the distance from the airport of arrival to
the departure port.

Menu
| How do I arrange transfers?
|
You can reserve transfers by contacting us once you’ve
booked your cruise. You must make reservations at least 14
days prior to your sailing date.

Menu
| What time do I board the ship?
|
Ship embarkation usually begins approximately 3 hours prior
to departure. You should check your ticket package for an
exact time.
Back to Flights, Transfers & Departure Times
Menu
| When does the ship depart?
|
Your ticket package will include a detailed cruise itinerary.
Most ships depart in the late afternoon around 4 or 5pm, but
so can depart as late as 10pm. Be sure to check your detailed
itinerary for an exact departure time.
