On board payment

What credit cards are accepted?

Visa, MasterCard, American Express, JCB, and Diners Club.

What are the payment methods on board?

All on board purchases are made with the personal cruise card, eliminating the need to carry cash or credit cards on board. To activate purchasing with the Cruise Card, Guests must either register their credit or debit card at the check-in or onboard at the Cruise Card Activation Points (only available on certain ships), or by leaving a cash deposit at the Reception - Guest Service immediately after embarkation.

In addition, you can book your cruise credit in advance so you’re ready to go as soon as you board. This credit can be used on board for shopping, relaxation or any other activity for the whole duration of your cruise. Book now your cruise credit!

Are the prices on board more expensive than those on land?

No. In fact the special operating environment that regulates the maritime sector means that many products (such as alcohol, tobacco and fragrances) can be sold duty free, bringing reductions of up to 30% off retail prices on land.

*Depending on the itineraries and subject to applicable legislation.

Can cash withdrawals be made on the ship?

A cash advance service is available if a credit card has been registered at the on board account. This can only be done in the on board currency (euro or US dollars, depending on the itinerary), for a fee, set according to the itinerary.
