CHILDREN'S
FEES
On
these cruises, children between 2 and 15 years travel
at a special price, quoted on the price list. The reduced
fee applies to a child who travels in the same cabin
(upper bed) with at least one person who pays the full
fee.
PASSPORT AND VISA
Each
passenger is responsible to have the required travel
documents. Finnish citizens are required to carry a valid
passport on all the mentioned cruises (or the official
valid ID-Card when travelling only to the EU-countries).
The passport must be entire and it must have enough empty
pages for the possible stamps. We recommend taking a
photocopy of the passport´s main pages and keeping
them safe during the cruise. This will help the procedure
in case you lose your passport.
On
European cruises the passport must be valid for three
months past the scheduled ending of the journey, and
on cruises outside Europe for six months past the scheduled
ending.
If
you do not have a Finnish passport, please inform us
about this when booking the cruise.
On
the cruises to Libya and Egypt Kristina Cruises will
provide the cruise visa for the passengers using our
charter flights. The cruise visa entitles to join the
shore excursions. Should you prefer to go independently
outside of the port cities in Libya and Egypt you will
need a visa.
Visas
should be applied in the country of residence and are
the responsibility of each individual passenger. Visa
charges are not included in the cruise rate. Passengers
should always check the requirements with the Embassy
or Consulate in question.
VACCINATIONS AND OTHER
RECOMMENDATIONS
Finnish
medical authorities recommend that you should always
have your polio, diphtheria and tetanus vaccinations
up to date. This is particularly important when travelling
abroad. Please check for any other recommendations from
your local medical authority. In order to avoid possible
stomach problems especially in Egypt, you may wish to
take some anti-diarrheic medication with you. Most of
our cabins have carpets, so people with possible allergy
problems are advised to have the necessary medications
with them. Also ensure that you have a sufficient supply
of any medication for the duration of the trip, including
possible delayed flights. It is advisable to keep medication
and prescriptions in the hand luggage, in their original
packaging. There are no lifts on the ship, so we cannot
recommend the cruises for people with severely limited
mobility
TRAVEL INSURANCE
We
recommend that you have travel and luggage insurance,
preferably one including basic insurance, to cover for
example serious illness or death of yourself, a close
relative or your travel companion. You will get the detailed
instructions from your travel insurance company.
