MinorAccompany policy

Infants on board Infants under one year* are admitted on board, except for cruises of 11 nights or longer, when they must be at least one year. This policy is due to long cruises often having multiple days at sea, which can impede our ability to provide urgent medical care for infants.

Smoking is prohibited inside the staterooms or balconies. Smoking is allowed only in designated areas such as cigar room or left side of the pool deck.
