On-board events

There are performers on board all of our ships. Recruited for their talent in Paris and Rome, they star in multiple shows at the Theatre, after dinner. Throughout your voyage, they host the various entertainment events in the Grand Salon, with the support of our on-board musicians.

During Tea Time or before dinner, our musical duos consisting of a singer and an accompanying musician play classical repertoires for you. In the evening, they play in concert at the Theatere or invite you to show off your dance moves. Dance evenings are thus co-led by performance dancers who know just how to keep you in step, under the direction of the Cruise Director.

There's plenty of themed entertainment to enjoy in the evenings. Both a soirée blanche (dress-in-white party) and an officers' evening are held on all long cruises. Other types of parties or evening events may also be on the programme, such as karaoke parties, a Casino parties or games evenings.

Films are regularly shown at the Theatre on giant screens. National Geographic features, documentaries related to our expedition route and feature films contribute to the cultural enrichment that is part of our cruise philosophy.

All our ships feature an onboard spa. Equipped with massage cabins, a Turkish bath (Sisterships, Le Paul Gauguin), a sauna (Explorers, Le Commandant Charcot), or a Snow Room (Le Commandant Charcot), the spas offer a wide choice of top-of-the-range treatments provided in association with SOTHYS™, CLARINS (Le Bellot and Le Jacques-Cartier only), BIOLOGIQUE RECHERCHE (Le Commandant Charcot, Le Ponant) and ALGOTHERM (Le Paul Gauguin), leading French spa and wellness centre brands.

Children under one year of age shall not be authorised to embark on the ships.

For children aged between 1 and 8 years old, an authorisation to board the ship must be made in writing to PONANT EXPLORATIONS. Subject to agreement, a liability waiver must be completed and returned to the company to validate the registration.

On classic cruises ("yachting"), children are accepted from the age of one, with a maximum of 5 children between 1 and 6 years old on board.

On "expedition" cruises children are accepted from 6 years old (except cruises aboard Le Commandant Charcot) and must be fully independent during all the outside activities organised and during disembarkation in rubber boats, be sufficiently tall to sit on the inflatable sides of the boats, and old enough to understand, and immediately respond to the orders given by the persons in charge. As a result, children's participation in any activity in an inflatable boat shall be subject to the agreement of the Captain and of the Expedition Head, depending on the sea conditions, and the difficulty of disembarking at each location visited. The ships do not carry Parka’s in children’s sizes. Parents must arrange to bring a suitable Parka for children. In all cases, children and young people under the age of 18 are at all times on board or on land under the full and total responsibility of their parents or carers.

Der er en læge om bord, som står til rådighed for passagererne på alle vores skibe:

• Konsultationstiderne er opført hver dag i logbogen (akut konsultation 24/7).
• Søsterskibene, PONANT Explorers og Le Commandant Charcot har også et hospital til mindre operationer.
• Under udflugterne ledsages passagererne af en læge eller en sygeplejerske.
• Der opkræves et gebyr for konsultationer om bord. Prisen kan variere afhængigt af tidspunkt og sted for konsultationen (hospital eller kahyt). Medicin skal også betales af passageren.
• Lægen om bord er ikke bemyndiget til at udstede sygemeldinger eller recepter. Der udstedes kun regninger og fakturaer, som passageren kan bruge til at søge refusion hos sin sundhedsforsikring, hvis kontrakten tillader det.

Lægekonsultationer

Der opkræves gebyr for lægekonsultationer foretaget af lægen eller sygeplejersken om bord. Prisen kan variere afhængigt af tidspunkt og sted for konsultationen (hospital eller kahyt). Eventuel medicin skal også betales af passageren. Hvis du bruger medicin regelmæssigt, anbefales det at medbringe tilstrækkelige forsyninger til hele krydstogtets varighed.

Særlig medicinsk behandling

Hvis du har behov for særlig behandling, beder vi dig informere reservationsservice ved tilmelding til krydstogtet, så det kan noteres på informationsarket inden afrejse. Informer også besætningen om bord ved afgang, og sørg altid for at have din medicin med dig under hele rejsen.

Søsyge

Vores skibe (undtagen Le Ponant) er udstyret med stabilisatorer med dynamiske finner, der tilpasser sig skibets bevægelser. Dette system gør det muligt for skibet at forudse og kompensere for søens bevægelser og opnå større stabilitet. Passagerer, der lider af søsyge, vil opleve lindring af symptomerne og bliver behageligt overraskede over ikke at føle ubehag under rejsen. Det er dog klogt at medbringe rejsemotionsmedicin for ekstra tryghed.

Tekniske Tilbehør

Vi anbefaler, at du udstyrer dig med en skimaske, solbriller, vandrestave (kan købes i butikken), en vandtæt rygsæk, kikkert, et teknisk ur, et myggenet til hovedet (til Arktis) samt en vandtæt pose.

Påklædningskode

Vi anbefaler, at du ifører dig elegant, afslappet tøj efter eget valg, og til galaaftenerne en cocktailkjole for damerne samt skjorte og slips for herrerne. Til officerernes aften er en hvid eller sort-hvid påklædning passende. Shorts eller bermudashorts er ikke tilladt om aftenen i de gastronomiske restauranter.

Ekspeditionseventyr

På en ekspeditionsrejse bør du medbringe praktisk tøj samt komfortable sko, der egner sig til rejser i Zodiac-både og til at gå i land på strande eller mudderflader. På tropiske ekspeditioner anbefales en hat, solbriller samt tøj med lange ærmer og ben. Til polarekspeditioner får du udleveret en polarpels i din størrelse, og egnede støvler vil være til rådighed til brug på land.
