Sail Safe

For everyone’s safety and well-being, we’ve introduced new measures to the already ambitious safety standards onboard all our vessels and at our ports and terminals. We’re actively monitoring the development of the COVID-19 situation. By doing so, we can ensure routines are continuously updated and our safety standards exceed current regulations; so you can sail with confidence.

As the Coronavirus COVID-19 continues to spread, we recognise and appreciate the increased uncertainty that this is causing. The situation has our fullest attention. For more information on how we are protecting our customers and crew, and for answers to our most Frequently Asked Questions, visit our Coronavirus Information Page.

You can make changes yourself in the “Manage Booking” section.

When making a new booking, we advise customers to purchase a Flexi or Premium ticket for greater flexibility should there be further restrictions on travel throughout Europe or if your travel plans change.
