Tickets
All passengers are required to have a ticket, regardless of age. Passengers under the age of 21 must be accompanied by a parent or legal guardian.
All passengers will select their own seats when purchasing tickets online. There are two classes of tickets for this cruise: Standard Seating and Premium Seating.
- Premium Seating includes seats that are most-desirable, including window seats, outdoor seats, and seats closer to entertainment. These seats are priced at a premium.
- Standard Seating is more affordable, and includes seats located toward the middle of the deck, in higher traffic areas, or may have partially obstructed views. As a courtesy, we also offer seats for those with mobility concerns as Standard Seats.
Please note that you are purchasing seats and not tables.
If there are open seats at your table, they may be booked by others particularly on high demand cruises.
