We welcome guests with special needs. The information you are provided with about your holiday (which may be on our website, in our brochures or elsewhere) before you make your booking will include a general indication of the suitability of the holiday for someone with reduced mobility. However, reduced mobility of course means different things to different individuals as we fully appreciate that individual capabilities, restrictions and requirements will vary considerably. If you suffer from reduced mobility or any medical condition or disability which may affect your holiday, please give us full details before booking so that we can provide you with precise information as to the suitability of the holiday taking into account your specific needs. Guests who have significant mobility impairments should travel with someone who will take responsibility for any assistance needed during the cruise and in the event of an emergency. Any assistance provided by Norwegian Cruise Line, its team members or service providers does not form part of the contracted services unless agreed differently in writing or where required by legal regulations (for example, in accordance with EU regulation 1107/2006 dated 5 July 2006 on the rights of disabled persons and persons with reduced mobility when travelling by air and EU regulation 1177/2010 dated 24 November 2010 concerning the rights of passengers when travelling by sea). Any special requirements which we have accepted will be specifically confirmed as accepted on your confirmation invoice. Unless and until specifically confirmed as accepted, all special requests and requirements are subject to availability and do not form part of the contracted services.

We have a limited number of staterooms per ship that are wheelchair accessible with grab rails in the bathrooms, lower sinks and toilets, shower seats, raised beds, adjustable hanging rods in wardrobes, tilting mirrors and extra wide doors for easy access.

If you do use a wheelchair, you must bring your own and it must be collapsible. If you do not wish to bring your own wheelchair on board, please contact our U.S.-based supplier Scooteround on 001 (888) 441 7575 to arrange delivery of one to the ship. All wheelchairs and scooters must be stored in your stateroom; they cannot be left in the hallway or any other public area. To ensure the safety of our guests and crew, wheelchairs may not be used to transfer from the ship to a tender. Guests in wheelchairs may consequently not be able to participate in certain activities or shore excursions in tender ports. Norwegian Cruise Line can only accept certain types of wheelchairs on board. Please see www.ncl.eu/about/accessible-cruising for further information. All guests who require medical equipment to be brought on board must advise Norwegian Cruise Line before sailing. Failure to do so may result in equipment not being cleared before departure.

For hearing-/ vision-impaired guests, we have a limited number of staterooms with vibrating alarm clocks and a flashing light system alerting guests to fire alarms. For the vision-impaired, we allow registered guide dogs on all Norwegian Cruise Line ships (airline and international quarantine restrictions may apply and should be checked before booking your cruise).

Guests who need oxygen or require oxygen therapy are welcome on all Norwegian Cruise Line ships; however, you must supply your own oxygen. U.S.-based Special Needs at Sea is the only company allowed to deliver and supply oxygen to Norwegian Cruise Line ships. Let us know at the time of booking that you'll be bringing oxygen on board, then contact Special Needs at Sea at 001 954 585 0575 to arrange delivery to the ship.

Any physical challenge or medical condition that requires special treatment or attention must be reported to Norwegian Cruise Line at the time of booking. For certain conditions we ask for medical declaration and liability forms. Due to unpredictable circumstances at sea, Norwegian Cruise Line must reserve the right to refuse or revoke passage to anyone who, based upon objective standards, is in a physical or mental condition that jeopardises the safe operation of the vessel, who poses a direct threat to the health or safety of others or who may require care beyond that which Norwegian Cruise Line can provide.

For guests with diabetes, refrigerators suitable for storing insulin are available in all staterooms except Studios (category T1 and T8).

If you are on a low calorie diet, breakfast, lunch and dinner menus feature low calorie, haute cuisine dishes. Sugar-free and fat-free desserts are also available. Gluten-free, lactose-free, sodium-free, Kosher and dairy-free diets can also be catered for and must be requested at least two months before your cruise. For further information see www.ncl.eu.

Hvis du har en fødevareallergi eller et kostkrav, der kræver koshermåltider eller glutenfri produkter, bedes du informere en Norwegian Reservations Agent eller din rejseagent på tidspunktet for booking. At skaffe disse produkter kræver ofte 30 dages varsel før afrejse, og vi ønsker at sikre, at vi kan imødekomme din anmodning. Vi kan ikke garantere koshermåltider ved forespørgsler, der modtages mindre end 30 dage før afsejling. For beskyttelsen af alle vores gæster er det ikke tilladt at medbringe fødevarer om bord, som kræver tilberedning af skibets personale eller opbevaring i vores kølefaciliteter.

Kosher-spisning

Norwegian Cruise Line tilbyder koshermåltider under dit krydstogt ved forudgående varsel. Kontakt blot vores reservationsspecialister på 1-800-237-7030 mindst 30 dage før din afsejling, så noteres din spisepræference. Hvis det er inden for 30 dage før afrejse, bedes du kontakte 0333 2412319, lokalnummer #11134. En notering vil blive tilføjet til din reservation, og personalet om bord vil assistere dig med at vælge dine måltider på ombordstigningsdagen. Reservationer: 1-800-237-7030

ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION POLICY

Please note that with the exception of Wine and Champagne, all guests are prohibited from bringing alcohol on board our ships. If you purchase any alcohol at one of our ports-of-call or in our onboard shops, we will safely store your purchase(s) and either on the final night of the cruise or the morning of debarkation it will be available for pick up in a designated area.

Continued abuse of alcohol whilst sailing and/or violation of Norwegian's alcohol policy may result in immediate disembarkation.

Non-Alcoholic Beverages Policy

Effective for sailings July 15, 2016 and beyond, guests are prohibited from bringing any beverages -- including liquor, beer and non-alcoholic drinks such as water, soda and juices -- on board either as carry-on or checked luggage, with the exception of purified or distilled water in factory-sealed containers for use in conjunction with medical devices or for the reconstitution of infant formula; and fully sealed and/or corked wine bottles for personal consumption onboard that is subject to screening and a corkage fee (for guests 21 years of age or older).

This revised policy brings the company in line with other best practise travel security protocols and reduces the need for individual time consuming screening and package inspection of large volumes of beverages.

Effective for sailings July 15, 2016 and beyond, guests are prohibited from bringing any beverages -- including liquor, beer and non-alcoholic drinks such as water, soda and juices -- on board either as carry-on or checked luggage, with the exception of purified or distilled water in factory-sealed containers for use in conjunction with medical devices or for the reconstitution of infant formula; and fully sealed and/or corked wine bottles for personal consumption onboard that is subject to screening and a corkage fee (for guests 21 years of age or older). Open beverages of any kind must be consumed or discarded at the security check-point, on embarkation day and at any port of call. This revised policy brings the company in line with other best practise travel security protocols and reduces the need for individual time consuming screening and package inspection of large volumes of beverages.

Why the change in policy?

The inspection of large volumes of beverages has an impact on the embarkation process and security resources. As one example, guests who attempt to smuggle alcoholic beverages onboard often try to do so in beverage containers. This means all beverages must be personally screened, taking both time and dedicated personnel.

This modified policy will now bring us in line with other travel industry procedures for transporting beverages and allow security personnel to focus on other screening efforts and not individually inspecting all beverages being brought onboard.

What if I purchase a beverage in a port of call?

Guests will not be permitted to bring any beverages onboard the ship in ports of call and any locally-purchased beverages will be disposed of prior to embarkation. No open containers of beverages, including water, will be allowed onboard during a port of call.

If you purchase any alcohol at one of our ports-of-call or in our onboard shops, we will safely store your purchase and either on the final night of the cruise or the morning of debarkation it will be available for pick up in a designated area.

What happens if I bring a case of water to the ship?

Guests who bring beverages to embarkation will be directed to return the items to their vehicle. If the guest does not have a vehicle onsite, the items will be disposed of.

If I need to bring water or milk onboard for a medical reason or infant, what’s the process?

Guests who have special needs, medical requirements, or families with infants who require water for formula or milk, should contact the access desk at accessdesk@ncl.com to verify if an exception can be made for their beverage and to obtain pre-approval to provide to security at embarkation.

Is the water onboard safe to drink?

All of our ships produce water in accordance with the guidelines and requirements as defined by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, U.S. Public Health Service, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Centre for Environmental Health.

Can I still bring wine on board?

Yes, guests may bring sealed bottles of wine on board for personal consumption. They will be checked prior to embarkation and a corkage fee applied at that time of $15.00 USD for a 750 ml Bottle or $30.00 USD for a 1,500 ml Magnum bottle. Box wines are not allowed on board.

Guests who purchase a beverage package, or who have a beverage package as part of the Free At Sea promotion, will not be charged a corkage fee.

Why can I bring wine but not other beverages?

As very few guests bring wine onboard, the team is able to easily and quickly screen these items.

Håndbagage

Gæster bør medbringe en ekstra overnatningstaske, da alle kufferter bliver indsamlet aftenen før, vi vender tilbage til hjemhavnen.

Rejsetips:

• Håndbåret bagage skal kunne passere gennem røntgenmaskinerne, som på flypladser; hvis den er større, skal den checkes ind. (Cirka 61 cm høj og 46 cm bred)
• Vi anbefaler, at gæster medbringer medicin, smykker, skrøbelige genstande eller andre værdigenstande, et ekstra sæt tøj til den første aften om bord samt vigtige dokumenter (f.eks. pas og rejsedokumenter) i håndbagagen.

We remain committed to preserving our oceans and protecting the environment, people, and communities that are vital to each and every Norwegian Cruise Line voyage. Our commitment extends far beyond our ships, transforming how we operate on a day-to-day basis by injecting sustainability into all aspects of our approach. Without this, we'd be unable to offer the unrivalled guest experience that defines a Norwegian Cruise.

We understand that protecting our environment and our oceans is not only vital to our industry but also to our planet. Our Safety, Security, Health and Environmental Protection policy establishes our commitment to conduct our operations safely, securely and with sensitivity to the environment around us. Preserving our oceans and protecting our environment is one of our core company values that we strive to meet through our daily goals:

• Prevent accidents and incidents involving pollution of the environment
• Reduce the environmental impact of our operations
• Dispose of rubbish and materials in accordance with national and international rules and regulations
• Recycle and reuse materials
• Continually improve our ISO 14001 certification objectives and targets

Across our fleet, we have implemented many of the most innovative environmental policies and technologies in the cruise industry. As such, we meet or exceed all international, national, state and local port regulations, including those set by MARPOL, the U.S. Coast Guard (USCG) and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). We are also accredited to the international ISO 14001 standard for Environmental Management Systems. This achievement recognises that we utilise a core set of standards for an effective environmental management system that reduces our environmental impact and increases our operating efficiency.

Vandproduktion ombord

Ombord på vores skibe anvendes vand primært af vores gæster og besætning i kahytterne til brusere, badekar og håndvaske, men også til pantryer, vaskerier, swimmingpools, whirlpools, spaområder og rengøring af fællesområder. Vi har fokuseret vores indsats på at øge vandproduktionen ombord med avancerede anlæg, der bruger havvand som kilde, hvilket reducerer behovet for at bunkre ferskvand. Dette er særligt vigtigt i lande, hvor ferskvand er en knap ressource og bedst reserveret til de lokale samfund.

• Reverse Osmosis (RO) producerer fersk- og teknisk vand fra havvand ved hjælp af højtryks-pumper og sofistikerede vandfiltre samt behandlingskomponenter.
• Fordampere fremstiller ferskvand fra havvand ved at udnytte varmekilder som udstødningsgas-kedler, oliefyrede kedler eller spildvarme genvundet fra hovedmotorens højtemperatur-kølesystem.
• Bunkret vand er drikkevand, der er anskaffet i havn til brug ombord.

Rensningssystemer for spildevand

For at behandle spildevand ombord er alle Norwegian Cruise Lines skibe udstyret med avancerede spildevandsrensningssystemer (AWP). Spildevandet ledes gennem disse systemer og renses inden udledning, hvilket resulterer i en udledning, der lever op til eller overgår internationale forskrifter og mange kommunale spildevandsanlægs standarder. Vores nyeste skibe er udstyret med den førende AWP-teknologi, der opfylder de strenge baltiske standarder. Hvert skibs spildevand testes kvartalsvist af en tredjepart, og vores miljøansvarlige foretager også ugentlige vandkvalitetstest for at sikre, at vi fortsat overholder alle standarder.

Bundvand

Spildevand opsamlet i maskinrum og motorrum kaldes bundvand. Det opsamlede bundvand opbevares i lagertanke og kan kun udledes efter at have opfyldt internationale, nationale og virksomhedsbestemte regler. For at sikre overholdelse er alle skibe udstyret med en automatisk stopanordning og en olieindholdsmåler, som sikrer, at skibet overholder reglerne. Dette udstyr analyserer og registrerer olieindholdet i bundvandet. Hvis bundvandet ikke opfylder kravene, stoppes udledningen automatisk, og bundvandet recirkuleres, indtil standarderne er opfyldt. Det resterende bundvand, som ikke kan udledes, opsamles og bringes i land til en godkendt modtager.

Ballastvand

For at sikre en sikker og behagelig sejlads udfører skibe en operation kaldet ballastning, som hjælper med at sikre trim, stabilitet og strukturel integritet. Fyldning af ballasttanke med havvand stabiliserer skibene og giver komfort til gæster og besætning. Når vand udledes eller brændstof forbruges, tager skibene havvand ind for at hjælpe med stabiliseringen. Under denne operation kan nogle arter "tage en tur" med skibene og sprede sig til mange dele af verden, herunder områder, hvor de ikke er hjemmehørende eller er invasive. Behandling af ballastvandet før udledning fjerner små organismer, der kan være blevet opsamlet under rejsen, for at beskytte lokale økosystemer.

Our ships call on sensitive areas of the world, and we strive to lead by example as we strive to continue to be effective stewards. Norwegian enforces a zero-tolerance policy for any items thrown overboard. If an environmental incident is observed, guests, crew and shoreside employees are encouraged to use our environmental hotline.

Proper implementation of a progressive waste management programme lessens the environmental impact of our operations, reduces pollution, promotes diversion of material from landfills, conserves natural resources, saves energy and lowers ship fuel use. Waste is reduced through reusing and recycling, with clear benchmarks serving as our measurement for waste minimisation.

Over the past decade, as the availability of recycling programmes and options has increased, we have taken advantage of these programmes wherever possible. One example is when Norwegian partnered with Waste Management in 2010 to develop an industry-first Live Load offload operation. This partnership reduces offload time of waste, truck on-site time, port congestion, transportation costs and the use of pier-side containers. Our ships that used the Live Load model in 2017 were able to conserve the following:

Norwegian Employees Working To Mitigate Waste

• Both shoreside and shipboard employees have been involved in food and clothing drives
• Our shoreside employees and various crew members participate in beach clean-ups and community clean-ups throughout the year
• During ship refurbishment, options to recycle and donate both technical equipment and hotel furniture are always explored

Climate change is one of the defining issues of our time. How governments, organisations and individuals choose to respond to it will have lasting effects for not only our lifetime, but future generations. Knowing this, we believe it is our obligation as leaders in the cruise industry to do our part and help mitigate actions that may influence changes to our climate on a large scale. We are always focused on continuous improvement and are ready to explore new opportunities as our fleet grows.

Emission Abatement
One innovative technology our ships use to decrease exhaust emissions is the Exhaust Gas Cleaning System (EGCS). This technology reduces the amount of sulphur oxide and particulate matter emitted from the ship by cleaning, or scrubbing, the emissions before being released from the stack. Ships equipped with this technology are able to reduce SOx emissions by up to 99 percent. As of December 2020, the following ships have been equipped with this technology: Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Encore, Norwegian Epic, Norwegian Escape, Norwegian Gem, Norwegian Jade, Norwegian Jewel, Norwegian Joy, Norwegian Pearl, Norwegian Sun and Pride of America.
Whilst in port, our cruise ships continue to generate their own power, providing heat, air conditioning, lighting and hot water for guests and crew, similar to a hotel.

A small number of ports around the world have installed infrastructure for cruise ships to connect to the onshore electrical power grid to supply much of the power needed when the ship is docked. This is known as Cold-Ironing, which can reduce emissions from a ship whilst docked. Out of the 450-plus ports we visit, less than 1% are equipped with this technology. As of December 2020, Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Encore, Norwegian Epic, Norwegian Jewel, Norwegian Joy and Norwegian Star are equipped with cold-ironing capabilities.

Energy Savings

Data is collected from all our ships to track the largest energy consumers on board and to assist in establishing Key Performance Indicators to identify where energy efficiency improvements can be made. Our goal is to focus on the large energy consumers and explore solutions to optimise operations and lower consumption.

Shipboard Energy Efficiency Management Plan (SEEMP)

The SEEMP is a ship-specific plan that focuses on improving energy efficiency. We do so through improving voyage planning, speed optimisation or operating engines on their most economic loads, optimisation of the air conditioning system and improving our ships' hydrodynamic capabilities by upgrading the propulsion systems with more efficient propellers. Onboard energy management meetings are also held quarterly to discuss energy conservation projects, tracking energy efficiency initiatives and future projects.

One of the most successful programmes implemented on our ships is Wasted Heat Recovery (WHR). This process works by recovering heat from the engines and transferring it to freshwater piping, which allows us to utilise a free source of energy for improving water production and saving fuel.

En læge og en sygeplejerske er til stede på hvert skib for at yde medicinsk behandling og service mod sædvanlige gebyrer. Almindeligt anvendte medicin opbevares om bord og kan ordineres af skibets læge.

All our ships are equipped with 24 hour Internet Cafés. Click here for more information on rates and services. Wireless internet (also known as Wi-Fi) is also available throughout Norwegian's entire fleet.

Alle nedenstående krav gælder på tidspunktet for ombordstigning. Spædbørn, der sejler ombord på et skib fra Norwegian Cruise Line, skal være mindst seks måneder gamle. For rejser med tre eller flere på hinanden følgende dage til søs skal spædbarnet dog være mindst 12 måneder gammelt.

Ombord defineres en mindreårig som en person under 18 år på tidspunktet for ombordstigning. En ung voksen defineres som en person mellem 18 og 20 år. Bemærk venligst, at dette ikke vedrører børnepriser, hvor alderen er 2-17 år.

Virksomhedens politik fastslår, at på rejser, der inkluderer en havn i USA, Canada eller Taiwan, skal gæster under 21 år ledsages i samme, tilstødende eller nabokahyt af en gæst, der er 21 år eller ældre på tidspunktet for ombordstigning (kahytter overfor hinanden er ikke omfattet af denne politik). For alle andre krydstogter gælder denne regel for alle gæster under 18 år med undtagelse af gæster, der er statsborgere i USA, Canada eller Taiwan. For gæster under 18 år, der rejser med en ledsagende voksen, som ikke er barnets forælder eller juridiske værge, skal en Forældre-/Værgeerklæring (tilgængelig her: www.ncl.eu/ParentGuardianForm), som giver tilladelse til barnets rejse og yderligere godkender medicinsk behandling i nødstilfælde, afleveres til en repræsentant fra Norwegian Cruise Line ved kajen under check-in. Manglende fremvisning af den udfyldte formular ved ombordstigning kan medføre nægtet adgang uden refusion.

På krydstogter, der inkluderer en canadisk havn, skal gæster under 18 år, der rejser med en enlig forælder, fremvise en godkendelseserklæring (helst notariseret) fra den forælder, der ikke rejser med. Bemærk: To personer under 21 år kan rejse sammen i samme kahyt, hvis de er gift og kan fremvise ægteskabsbevis til en repræsentant fra Norwegian Cruise Line ved kajen inden ombordstigning.

Børn under 16 år har ikke adgang til fitnesscentret. Minimumsalderen for brug af kasinoet og Thermal Spa (sauna, dampbad, varme kar) er 18 år. Nogle barer og lounger ombord på Norwegian Epic og Breakaway (Plus)-klasse skibe, såsom Spice H2O, er kun for voksne (18 år og derover). Livreddere overvåger familiepoolerne i de fastsatte åbningstider. Det anbefales dog kraftigt, at alle børn under 12 år til enhver tid har voksenopsyn. Sikkerheden for alle børn (op til 18 år) er forældrenes eller de ledsagende voksnes ansvar, uanset om der er livredder på vagt.

Af sikkerhedsmæssige årsager må børn ikke efterlades uden opsyn ombord, når deres forældre eller andre ledsagende voksne går i land.
