When you cruise with us, you will have peace of mind from the moment you book, thanks to our comprehensive return to service safety measures.

Our ships have been awarded independent Shield+ accreditation to certify that they are operating safely, using only the strictest health and hygiene measures.
We will continue to review our Covid-19 protocols to ensure we provide a safe environment for our guests and crew on all cruises sailing throughout the year.
Getting you here safely
For June and July 2021, our included chauffeur service will be extended to a private service up to 250 miles each way. This means every guest or ‘bubble’ will be picked up at home and driven to the port, safely and without the need to use any form of shared transport.
Covid-19 testing before boarding
There will be mandatory pre-departure Covid-19 testing at home and in the terminal for guests and crew, along with temperature checks and a full medical screening.
Reduced guest capacity
For these cruises, we have reduced both our ships’ guest capacity by a fifth, to a maximum of 800 guests per ship.
Enough space for everyone
As you would expect, social distancing measures will be in place, which feels subtle aboard our spacious ships.
Face coverings
Unless exempt, face coverings must be worn in all internal public areas, for all guests and staff.
Hand sanitising
We have installed even more hand sanitising stations around our ships, which must be used before entering each public area.
Fresh, clean air
We have made additional enhancements to our state-of-the-art air conditioning, which already circulates 100% fresh air in all public areas and cabins.
All à la carte dining
Every restaurant will now offer full waiter service to your table. We have also increased the number of tables on the outside areas for al fresco dining.
Enhanced cleaning
We are enhancing our already high standards of cleaning throughout the ships, including all public areas and cabins.
Extra medical care
We have doubled the number of medical staff on board, and expanded our medical facilities, including a new isolation area.
Included coronavirus cover
As standard, we now include coronavirus cancellation cover, as well as travel insurance with up to £5m coronavirus emergency medical and repatriation cover, or a price reduction if you don’t need it.
Shield+ accreditation
We are the only cruise line who has been awarded Shield+ accreditation from Lloyd’s Register. This is independent accreditation that we are operating safely using only the strictest health and hygiene measures, protecting our guests at all times.
