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.

Services

Na raspolaganju vam je satelitski telefonski sustav za kontaktiranje bilo koga, bilo gdje u svijetu. Trošak poziva bit će dodan na račun vaše kabine (6 € po minuti). Pozive koje primite moguće je preusmjeriti izravno u vašu kabinu ili u bilo koji drugi zajednički prostor na brodu. Za primanje ili slanje faksova, molimo obratite se na Recepciju.

Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi & Internet Access

Besplatan Wi-Fi internet dostupan je na svim našim brodovima, kako u kabinama, tako i u zajedničkim prostorijama. U rekreacijskim centrima na raspolaganju vam je jedan ili više računala. Imajte na umu da se Wi-Fi veza može prekinuti ovisno o području plovidbe i krajolicima koji mogu blokirati satelitski signal, osobito na velikim geografskim širinama (veza nije moguća izvan 80° sjeverne ili južne širine), ili zbog tehničkih razloga izvan naše kontrole.

Medicinske Usluge

Medical Facilities

There is a doctor on board available to the passengers on all our ships:

The schedules of consultation are listed each day in the log book (emergency consultation 24/7).
The Sisterships, PONANT EXPLORATIONS Explorers and Le Commandant Charcot also have a hospital for any small surgery.
During the excursions, the passengers are accompanied by a doctor or a nurse.
There is a fee for consultations on board . The price may vary according to the time and place of the consultation (hospital or staterooms). You must also pay for medications.
The doctor on board is not authorised to distribute sick leaves and prescriptions. Only accounts and invoices are provided which may be used by the passenger to obtain a refund from his/her health insurance if his/her contract allows.

Medical Consultations

There is a charge for medical consultations undertaken by the doctor or nurse on board. The price can vary according to the time and place of the consultation (hospital or stateroom). Any medication must also be paid for by the passenger. If using medications on a regular basis make sure to bring adequate supplies for the duration of your cruise.

Special Medical Treatment

If you have any special treatment, we ask you to inform the reservation service when you register for the cruise, to note it on the information sheet before departure, then inform the on-board crew at the moment of departure and always keep your medication with you for the duration of the cruise.

Seasickness

Our ships (except Le Ponant) have stabilisers equipped with dynamic fins which adapt to the movements of the ship. This system allows the ship to anticipate and compensate for the pitching and tossing of the sea to achieve greater stability. Passengers suffering from seasickness will see their symptoms alleviated and are pleasantly surprised to not feel uncomfortable during their journey. However it is wise to bring travel motion medication with you for peace of mind.

Kodeks odijevanja

Dress Code

Dress code

Preporučujemo nošenje elegantne, ležerne odjeće po vašem izboru, a za gala večeri cocktail haljinu za dame te košulju i kravatu za gospodu, dok je za večer časnika poželjna bijela ili crno-bijela odjeća. Šorcevi i bermude nisu dozvoljeni u večernjim satima u gastronomskim restoranima.

Ekspedicijski krstarenje

Za ekspedicijsko krstarenje svakako ponesite praktičnu odjeću i udobnu obuću prikladnu za putovanja u Zodijacima te iskrcavanje na plaže ili muljevita područja. Na tropskim ekspedicijama ne zaboravite šešir, sunčane naočale i odjeću dugih rukava i nogavica. Za polarne krstarenja dobit ćete polarni parka u vašoj veličini, a na raspolaganju će vam biti i odgovarajuće čizme za korištenje na kopnu.

Održivi razvoj

Sustainable Development

Environmental & Sustainability

Održivi razvoj utkan je u statut tvrtke i od samog je početka srž projekta PONANT EXPLORATIONS. Osnovana prije više od trideset godina od strane strastvenih pomoraca, tvrtka je nastala iz želje da se podijeli ljubav prema oceanima i blagom Zemlje. Ova odgovornost obvezuje nas na poštovanje prema okolišu i zajednicama koje susrećemo, kao i na ulaganja u brojne sektore vezane uz očuvanje i razvoj prirodne i kulturne baštine polarnih i oceanskih područja. Čisti brodovi Bili smo među prvim svjetskim operatorima krstarenja koji su odustali od korištenja teških goriva, a naši brodovi opremljeni su električnim dizelskim motorima i SCR katalitičkim pretvaračima, što omogućuje smanjenje potrošnje goriva i emisija. Naš polarni istraživački brod, Le Commandant Charcot, hibridno je električno plovilo koje pokreće ukapljeni prirodni plin (LNG). LNG omogućuje smanjenje emisija ugljika za 25%, emisija dušikovih oksida za 85% te emisija finih čestica za 95%. Svaki put kada dizajniramo novi brod, opremamo ga najnovijim dostupnim ekološkim tehnologijama, čime održavamo vodeću poziciju u industriji krstarenja u području zaštite okoliša, često ispred međunarodnih propisa. Ovu predanost prepoznale su brojne neovisne organizacije: - Cijela naša flota posjeduje certifikat Clean Ship od Bureau Veritas, koji jamči da naši brodovi ispunjavaju vrlo precizne kriterije: razine emisija, obrada otpada, otpadnih voda i slično. - Godine 2020. PONANT EXPLORATIONS proglašen je "najzelenijim operatorom krstarenja na svijetu u pogledu emisija u zrak" od strane njemačke nevladine organizacije NABU. - PONANT EXPLORATIONS osvojio je Prix des Palmes du Tourisme Durable 2020 (Nagrada za održivi turizam) u kategoriji "Putovanje" za eliminaciju teškog goriva u korist LS MGO. - Godine 2019. PONANT EXPLORATIONS postao je prva europska kompanija za krstarenja koja je dobila certifikat North American Green Alliance, potvrđujući da su njezini članovi usvojili prakse i tehnologije koje poštuju okoliš. - PONANT EXPLORATIONS je također potpisnik Charte Bleue od Armateurs de France, koja obvezuje pomorski sektor na djelovanje u zaštiti morskog okoliša. Otpadne vode Sve otpadne vode obrađuju se procesima koji isključuju upotrebu kemijskih proizvoda. Reciklirana voda koristi se za čišćenje vanjštine broda. Voda koja se ispušta u more obrađena je i pitka. Otpad Optimizirali smo organizaciju kako bismo smanjili otpad već u nastanku. Ipak, otpad se i dalje proizvodi na brodu. Od 2020. godine 60% otpada se sortira i reciklira, s ciljem povećanja na 85% do 2023. godine. Osiguravamo potpunu sljedivost tog otpada. Plastika za jednokratnu upotrebu Eliminirali smo upotrebu plastike za jednokratnu upotrebu (slamke, čaše, pladnjeve za posluživanje hrane, vrećice za rublje i slično). Svakom putniku na ekspedicijskim krstarenjima dodjeljuje se metalna boca, a na brodovima su dostupni i izvori vode u zajedničkim prostorijama. Također razvijamo punjenje naše vode u staklene boce.
