Health & Safety

Health:

Please make sure your iCruise consultant is informed at the time of booking should you require any assistance due to mobility, diet, medical or other conditions that may hinder your travel arrangements or require additional services by a supplier.
A certificate of fitness is required for all passengers with a known medical condition. To aid onboard medical care, passengers are requested to bring with them a recent medical history from their doctor. Passengers requiring assistance must have this cleared at the time of booking, in some cases passengers requiring assistance may need to be accompanied. Passengers must also bring with them sufficient quantities of any prescribed medicines to last the duration of their holiday.

Due to strict safety requirements a cruise line has the right to deny boarding should documentation / passenger information be incorrect and/or the cruise line renders the passenger unfit to travel.

Vaccinations & Health Advisories:

We strongly recommend you seek information and advice from either your doctor or an approved health travel advisory service to identify any specific vaccination or health warning/precaution that may be required for each port of call you will be visiting. Some countries enforce strict health requirements and may deny passengers with the incorrect documentation/vaccinations from being able to go ashore.

Medical Services:

The onboard medical facility onboard a ship is staffed full time with registered doctors and nurses. There is a charge for this facility and charges for medical services will be added to your onboard cabin account. You will be provided with an itemised account for insurance purposes.

Pregnancy:

Conditions for pregnant passengers may vary per cruise line, please ask your iCruise consultant for details relating to your cruise or refer to the cruise line’s Terms & Conditions pages in their brochure.
