If you feel ill and need to change your plans, Princess protect your cruise investment. Under the temporary Book with Confidence policy, they’ve taken the worry out of booking your next cruise:

• Cancel up to 30 days before you sail, and get your cancellation fees back as a Future Cruise Credit.

  • Applies to voyages departing through 30 September 2021.
• NEW: Within 30 days of your sail date, they've got you covered with their COVID-19 Protection Programme - This new policy within their Cruise with Confidence programme provides reassurance if you are within 30 days of sailing, all the way through to disembarking from your cruise. It is designed to assist you if, as a result of being suspected of having COVID-19 or testing positive for COVID-19, you may be unable to travel to your cruise embarkation port, may be denied boarding, may be quarantined on board or disembarked early. COVID-19 Protection Programme is available on all cruises sailing through 31 December 2021, for bookings made on or before 30 June 2021.

Alternatively, guests can choose a future cruise credit (FCC) equivalent to 100% of the cruise fare paid plus an additional non-refundable bonus FCC equal to 10% of the cruise fare paid (minimum £25) or a full refund to the original form of payment.

Responsible Physical Distancing

• Across the fleet Princess is making it easier to practice physical distancing by managing the timing, size and flow of groups in onboard venues and for events and helping you make informed decisions about what to do on board. Entertainment programs and restaurants will be designed to enhance physical distancing.
• Physical distancing will also be maintained throughout check-in and embarkation, and will be required in terminals, on board ships, on private islands, and during shore excursions.

Masks

Personal Hygiene

Guests will be encouraged to use the hand-washing sinks and hand sanitiser dispensers at venue entrances and in high-traffic areas throughout the ship. Guests will be asked to follow health information about the ways to stay healthy on board and when ashore through daily programming, entertainment systems, announcements, in-stateroom literature and the Princess app. There will be no self-service for meals. Princess will do the serving for you.

Safe Shoreside Experiences

Princess is working with local authorities, destinations and tour operators so that the enhanced health and safety measures on board are maintained ashore. Princess will follow the health protocols for every port visited. There may be a reduction in the capacity of excursions and tour vehicles.
