Important conditions
  • Keep pets off seats and tables; bring water and waste bags.
  • Pets are excluded from food-service areas and shuttle buses.
  • The pet FAQ mentions limited salon seating in winter or bad weather while other sections exclude indoor lounges. Confirm any indoor exception with crew.
  • Ticket prices and any pet-specific charges require confirmation.
  • Leashed dogs may accompany passengers on exterior vessel decks. Walk-on passengers can instead use a secure carrier.
