The below is correct at time of publishing and pertains to UK and Republic of Ireland (ROI) passport holders and should be used for guidance only. Please note, some &quot;British Isles&quot; passports issued in the Isle of Man or the Bailiwicks of Jersey or Guernsey, do not have the same visa exceptions as a full UK passport and guests holding either of these passports should check this with <a rel="noopener noreferrer" title="Cunard Visa Service" aria-label="Cunard Visa Service" href="https://www.cibtvisas.co.uk/cunard" target="_blank">CIBT</a> specifically for the countries they are visiting on their itinerary.

Any visa that is obtained on board are charged in dollars, this will be converted to Pounds Sterling (and charged at the conversion rate of the day) to your on board account.

Visa requirements for those with a full British Citizen Passport

Please note that there may be a visa requirement for your cruise and it is the responsibility of each guest to ensure that they are in possession of all travel documents required for their itinerary.&nbsp;
Guests who do not possess the proper documentation may be prevented from boarding their flight or ship or from entering a country. In some cases this may lead to large fines which you will be required to pay and/or immediate repatriation to your home country at your own expense. Please ensure you check your requirements carefully before you travel to avoid unnecessary expense and inconvenience.
Any visa obtained on board is charged in US dollars, converted from the local currency at the conversion rate of the day and charged to your onboard account.
<h3 style="text-align: left;">Things to remember</h3>
Names on visas must appear as they do on your passports: When applying for your visa you must ensure that all guests' full names are exactly the same as they appear as in their passport. If there is any difference, you may be refused entry onto your flight/cruise.
Passport and visa requirements are subject to change: Passport and visa requirements may change and vary by destination. We regret we cannot accept any liability if you are refused entry onto any flight, cruise or into any country, or otherwise suffer any difficulties or incur any costs as a result of not having the correct passport and/or any required visa(s).
You must ensure you have all visas before departure: It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in possession of all necessary travel and health documents before departure. You must pay all costs incurred in obtaining such documentation. Certain Port Authorities may require photo identification when you depart the ship during the cruise. We strongly suggest that you take photocopies of your passport information page with you in addition to but separately from your passport itself and that you carry the photocopy with you each time you depart the ship in order to minimise any inconvenience this may cause and to provide an official means of identification whilst ashore in case it is required or due to loss/theft of your passport.
Ensure your passport is fully valid to ensure your visa is valid: The information is correct at time of publishing and is subject to change at any time. UK passport information applies to British Citizens, holders of another UK passport must check with the relevant authority. There is often a stipulation on having a minimum amount of validity left on your passport and a number of clear pages in order to gain entry, which can be up to a 6 month requirement. Again, please check with the relevant authority.
You still need a visa, even if you don't disembark at that port: If there is requirement to obtain a visa prior to travel for a particular country, and a guest chooses to not disembark the ship, then the guest is still required to obtain the necessary visa.

You may walk or feed your pet on board, or our Kennel Master can take care of this for you.

Am I responsible for walking and feeding my pet on board?

Our menus only highlight food options that are vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free. They will not highlight all 14 major allergens.
When you dine in the main dining restaurant, you will be given the next day’s menus showing you your available choices. The waiter can then take your pre-order with your dining choices for the next day.
In the buffet restaurants on board, there will always be a crew member on hand to advise regarding allergens and there is signage above the serving stations when food contains allergens.
We do not detail allergies within drinks; therefore, this should be discussed on board when meeting with the Food &amp; Beverage team. You should also discuss this with the waiter when ordering drinks.

Are allergens labelled in menus or beside food or drinks in the buffet?

Some of our ‘standard’ Shore Experiences aren’t suitable for everybody due to their physical nature. However, some wheelchair users and guests with reduced mobility might feel confident they can join in certain experiences. We also offer a selection of accessible Shore Experiences which are specially designed for guests with reduced mobility.
‘Standard’ shore experiences
We give you an idea of the physicality and types of terrain you’ll encounter on each shore experience within its description. However, we don’t recommend particular ‘standard’ experiences for wheelchair users or guests with reduced mobility because we understand that everyone has different abilities.
If your mobility is limited but you’re able to board a coach, the most suitable ‘standard’ shore experiences for you will likely be those with the 'low' activity symbol. These are often titled 'Panoramic', e.g. Panoramic Rome.
Wheelchair and scooter users have the same options as all our other guests:
<ul>
<li>Go on shore independently.</li>
<li>Take a taxi (the shore experiences team on board can help arrange this).</li>
<li>Join a shore experience. However, we recommend that you consider the amount and type of movement involved, which is indicated in each shore experience’s description.</li>
<li>Arrange a private, personalised experience (the shore experiences team on board can help arrange this).</li>
</ul>
Transport on ‘standard’ shore experiences
The mode of transport used for each experience is noted in the tour description on My Cunard.
The experiences we offer involve a variety of transportation types (e.g. coach, minibus, boat etc.) which vary in size and age from port to port. Each has different accessibility and storage facilities.
Generally, full-size coaches can accommodate a limited number of small, collapsible scooters or manual wheelchairs in the hold. Guests or their companions have the responsibility for collapsing wheelchairs/scooters and placing them on the coach. If this isn’t possible, the wheelchair/scooter would need to stay on the ship as there are no storage facilities at the quayside.
Where minibuses/trolley trains are used to operate shore experiences, the storage space is too small to accommodate wheelchairs or scooters.
Accessible shore experiences and vehicles
Due to health and safety reasons, mobility scooters can’t be used on our accessible shore experiences as they can’t be safely secured inside the vehicles. If you’re a full-time scooter user or if you’d like an alternative option, we can arrange private shore experiences. Please&nbsp;speak with the shore experiences&nbsp;team on board for more personalised/ bespoke arrangements.
You can take an electric wheelchair on some accessible shore experiences. However, weight requirements do vary by tour. This information is detailed in the 'Essential Information' section of each individual tour.&nbsp;It’s advisable, where possible, to take a manual wheelchair instead as they’re always suited to the accessible vehicles.
Please also note that legal requirements for wheelchairs and travel within vehicles differ by country. Please ensure you check the 'Essential Information' for each individual tour to understand what is specifically required before you book your experience.
Accessible shore experiences are charged to your on-board account. If you’re entitled to receive a loyalty discount, it will be applied.
If you use a wheelchair or scooter part-time, we recommend you join a ‘standard’ shore experience and store your wheelchair/scooter in the hold of the coach or vehicle (providing it collapses).
Wheelchair accessible minibuses are only available in a few ports and can only accept full-time manual wheelchair users for safety reasons.
All the accessible vehicles we use and tours that are arranged locally are sourced from reputable and competent operators. They’re fully insured, have safety management systems in place and comply with all prevailing local rules, regulations and standards. The health, safety and comfort of our guests is paramount. However please be mindful that local country standards may not reflect those at home.
Written commentary for deaf/hard of hearing guests
If you let us know prior to sailing that you’d like written commentary of a shore experience, we’ll work with the tour agent and do our best to provide this for you. Please <a href="/contact-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">contact us</a> as soon as possible to request this.

Are Shore Experiences accessible for people with disabilities?

Signature Packages are only available to guests aged 18 and over. However, if the second guest in a stateroom is a child (e.g. there’s one adult and one child travelling together), they will each be charged the Signature Package price. In this case, the child will get the Wi-Fi package and dining credit, and the alcoholic drinks package will be replaced with an Alcohol-Free Collection.&nbsp;
Children travelling as guests three or four in a stateroom won’t be charged, and they’ll automatically get an Alcohol-Free Collection package free of charge.&nbsp;

Are Signature Package prices the same for adults and children?

Yes, subject to availability. Cunard Signature Packages can be added at the time of booking: once you’ve selected your chosen voyage, you’ll see the option to add the Signature Package or Premium Signature Package during the booking journey. Alternatively you can add packages after you have booked your cruise by contacting Cunard, or your travel agent.

Are Signature Packages available on all cruises?

The waters of the Norwegian fjords are generally not very choppy, especially compared to open sea conditions. The fjords are typically sheltered by surrounding mountains, which help calm the water and create a more tranquil and serene cruising experience.
However, the sea can be a bit rougher in some areas, particularly if you are cruising outside the fjords or on the open ocean, like when crossing the Norwegian Sea. Within the fjords themselves, the water is usually quite calm, making it ideal for scenic cruises.
If you're prone to seasickness, it’s always a good idea to check the weather forecast and consider seasickness remedies, but overall, the Norwegian Fjords are known for their peaceful, picturesque waters.

Are the Norwegian fjords choppy?

Yes; some websites and categories of websites are blocked either due to their content or due to their consumption of large amounts of bandwidth. Websites that may be blocked: adult content, alcohol and tobacco, anonymisers, drug abuse, file sharing, malware, nudity, online gambling, streaming hacking, phishing, proxy avoidance and violent content.By using our Guest Wi-Fi, you agree to the terms of our acceptable use policy, which sets out the requirements and limitations of using our internet plans.&nbsp;Our Essential Plan does not include video streaming, so social media is limited to images and text only.

Are there any browsing limitations with the on board internet plans?

Our Shore Experiences are open to everyone travelling on the voyage, and we offer a full range of itineraries and activity types, for all levels. Some Shore Experiences may have restrictions, such as age or mobility, but this information will be included in the Shore Experience important information, on My Cunard.

Are there any limitations on who can join a Shore Experience?

Yes, to link bookings, all guests need to be booked on the same voyage and must be embarking and disembarking the ship on the same days.&nbsp;
Additionally, only the lead guest can request to link bookings.&nbsp;&nbsp;
If you want to dine with friends or family who are not embarking or disembarking on the same days as you, and you have both selected Assigned Dining, please speak to the restaurant manager on board and they will do their best to accommodate you.

Are there any requirements or conditions for linking bookings? 

Any restrictions would be on an experience-by-experience basis, and these can be found in the Shore Experience important information, on My Cunard.

Are there any restrictions for Shore Experiences?

<ul><li>Download videos and music ahead of sailing.&nbsp;If you plan on watching a film or series, or listening to your favourite albums, podcasts or music playlists while on board, we recommend downloading it onto your device prior to sailing. Our Essential Plan does not include video or music streaming, and we cannot guarantee streaming speeds during peak hours.</li><li>Download apps before embarking. We strongly recommend you download any apps at home prior to sailing and avoid updating your device on our ships.</li></ul>

Are there any top tips for using the Wi-Fi on board?

There are no Electric Vehicle charge points at the port. CPS, our parking provider, can offer trickle charging as part of their parking package on a first come first served basis.

Are there Electric Vehicle charge points at the Southampton cruise terminal?

&nbsp;
Specialist cleaning services
Wet cleaning is a professional, aqueous cleaning process for sensitive and non-washable garments. The wet cleaning process was invented in 1991 by Kreussler &amp; Co GmbH in cooperation with Miele. Wet cleaning avoids the use of chemical solvents. Environmental groups and the United States Environmental Protection Agency have indicated that such alternative &quot;&quot;wet cleaning&quot;&quot; methods are better for the environment than chemical solvents and proponents of wet cleaning state that these methods can be used without shrinking or otherwise damaging garments that typically require dry cleaning.
We also offer slight alterations / repairs on board, for an added cost.&nbsp;

Are there laundry facilities on board?

Yes. You’ll find a café serving refreshments within the departure lounge of each cruise terminal in Southampton (Ocean, QEII, Mayflower, Horizon, and City).
As well as serving hot and cold drinks, including selected alcoholic options, each outlet also offers a selection of sandwiches, cakes, and snack foods. Vending machines are also available.

Are there refreshments available at Southampton cruise terminal?

Yes, The Captain's, Commodore and Cunard collections are available to purchase on all Queens.

Are Wine Collections available on all ships?

As pioneers of the World Voyage, we certainly think so! Exploring the world by ship is unlike any other mode of travel, giving you access to sights and wonders that flying or travelling by road cannot offer. Cruising also gives you the luxury of going to sleep only to wake up in your next destination; no connections or weary travelling required. If you travel on a Full World Voyage, you will be sailing roundtrip; with no flights, your luggage allowance is as large as you need it to be (as long as each item is below 23kg). And speaking of luggage, perhaps one of our favourite things about cruising is that you can see dozens of destinations and only unpack once for your entire voyage! Plus, with Cunard, you have access to additional Full World Voyage benefits on selected cruises, and everything else that makes a Cunard voyage so special, including White Star Service, fine dining, world-class entertainment and a world of wellness at sea.

Are world cruises worth it?
