Children under the age of 18 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian over the age of 18 at all times. Please refer to the cruise line policy for specific requirements.

Children must be at least 12 months of age at the time of embarkation to sail on trans-ocean crossings and remote itineraries, where there are more than 2 consecutive sea days.
Pregnant Women
Women cannot have begun their 24th week of pregnancy at any time before or during the cruise. If you are pregnant or sailing with a guest who is pregnant they must provide a physician’s letter stating the expected due date, medical fitness to travel and the pregnancy is not high risk.
Accessibility & Mobility
For individuals with limited mobility, the use of a wheelchair will be the primary mobility assistance aid for getting on and off the ship. Certain ship transfer operations (i.e. during tendering and at the gangways) may not be fully accessible to wheelchairs or scooters. When a ship is unable to dock, guests are taken ashore on smaller boats called tenders. Some guests with limited mobility may find it difficult to embark or disembark the ship at certain times while tendering or while docked due to steep gangways and steps, particularly during low or high tide. Also, please note that scooters and wheelchairs which are more than 100 lbs. without the battery are not allowed to be transferred from the ship to tender and/or from tender to shore. Seabourn is not able to provide complimentary wheelchair assistance for any purpose other than embarkation, disembarkation, and emergency situations. Situations may occur in which guests with limited mobility may not be able to go ashore at the time they desire or are unable to go ashore at all in certain ports. For the safety of all concerned, the Captain shall make the final determination regarding whether or not it is advisable to provide assistance to guests with mobility limitations, or to carry their mobility assistance device (wheelchair, scooter, walker, etc.), taking into account all appropriate matters including, but not limited to, weather conditions, ship's location, the weight of the guest or their mobility device, etc.
Passports & Visas
All passport and visa requirements are the sole responsibility of the traveler. Redwood Travel Partners and Somma do not advise on passport and visa requirements. It is your sole responsibility to obtain the proper travel documents necessary for your travel, including all associated costs related to obtaining your travel documents. Boarding may be denied if you arrive at the pier without the proper travel documentation, and in that case, you would not be eligible for a refund. Every country has its own entry requirements, and guests assume personal responsibility for having the necessary documents when boarding. Somma, Redwood Travel Partners, and Seabourn highly recommend that all guests carry a passport that is valid for at least six months beyond the completion date of your travel date. Having a passport will enable you to fly from the U.S. to a foreign port in the event you miss your scheduled embarkation or to fly back to the U.S. if you need to disembark the ship mid-cruise due to an emergency.
Passports are sometimes surrendered to and held by the pursers on board to facilitate clearances in ports of call. It is prudent to photocopy the identification page of your passport and pack it separately, in case of loss or damage to the original.
Your name on your travel documents (passport, Alien Resident card, birth certificate, etc.) must be identical to those on your cruise documents. Otherwise, proof of name change (e.g. a marriage license) with a valid driver’s license (or other government-issued photo ID) must be presented. Any discrepancies may prevent travel.
PLEASE NOTE: In addition, visas or other documents may be required, depending on your citizenship or residency and the itinerary. It is your sole responsibility to obtain all necessary documents for all ports of call on your itinerary. Boarding may be denied or fines levied against those guests without proper documentation. Payment of any fines levied is the responsibility of the individual guest.
Cancellation Policy
Please read the cancellation policies for this chartered cruise. These cancellation policies differ from the standard cruise line policies.
All payments are non-refundable. Guests are urged to purchase Travel Insurance to offset this risk. If you have questions regarding trip insurance coverage, please contact Allianz here.
In the rare case of an approved cancellation, cancellations are subject to a forfeiture of deposit + 10% of total funds paid. All deposits are NON-REFUNDABLE.
All guests must abide by Seabourn’s health and safety requirements. Seabourn reserves the right to deny boarding, quarantine, or remove from the cruise any guest who tests positive for Covid 19 or does not comply with vaccination, testing, or any health and safety protocols. Seabourn also reserves the right to deny boarding for any other reason they see fit. No refunds or compensation will be given for denial, removal, or quarantine for any reason. No refunds or compensation will be given for not traveling due to illness, family emergency, passport issues, or any other reason. It is HIGHLY suggested that you obtain Travel Insurance and that you are abundantly clear on the terms of the insurance you have purchased.
