A world of adventure awaits you . . .
Health and Safety
In the NewsSafety while traveling is definitely in the news these days. But let’s face it, any business that doesn’t take health and safety seriously doesn’t stay in business long. So, the cruise lines take health and safety very seriously. Most people recognize that the statistics show cruising is safe and that’s why cruising is more popular than ever.

Using Common Sense
Travelers have to do their part, too! If the cruise line says, “no candles” or “no irons” ...they have a reason—candles and irons are a fire hazard, so leave them home. And, please don’t throw cigarettes overboard.
While the point of a vacation is to relax, it doesn’t mean that you can abandon common sense. If you find yourself in an area or situation that just “doesn’t seem right”, trust your gut and get out of there. Don’t wear expensive jewelry, flash a lot of cash, or leave expensive cameras on the beach when you go snorkeling. Don’t lean over the side or sit on the railing for any reason...not to take a photo, not to get sick...not to catch your hat...nothing. Drink responsibly.
Pregnancy
Many cruise lines and other vacation destinations prohibit women who are in or will enter their third trimester of pregnancy (27th week) during the trip from traveling. Please call us to discuss various alternatives that may be available.
