Celebrity Cruises Rules and Restrictions

General Rules and Restrictions

  • Your credit card will be charged the deposit amount due.
  • Any changes made to your booking after final payment will incur penalties charged by the cruise line; including re-faring, name changes, air cancellations, etc. To determine applicable change fees for your reservation, please call us at 1-866-310-5768
  • Any payment not received by its due date will result in your reservation being cancelled. You would then be responsible for any applicable cancellation penalties
  • All listed rates are valid for U.S. and Canadian residents only.
  • All passengers must provide proof of citizenship when boarding the ship, even if your cruise includes only domestic destinations. If your cruise is an international sailing, the countries you visit will also require proof of citizenship. We strongly recommend bringing a valid passport as this is the only form of identification accepted by most countries as required by the US Department of State for reentry into the United States.
  • Some countries require visas. You will need both a visa and a passport if your cruise departs from or visits a port of call that requires a visa. You are responsible for acquiring the necessary visas. If your cruise departs from or visits a port of call that requires a visa you must have a valid passport for your trip. Non US citizens must present a valid passport and any visas or travel documents required for re-entry into the US. Contact your consulate for specific requirements.
  • It is your responsibility to check on all required documents as requirements are subject to change and differ for various itineraries. To learn about visa requirements, or to purchase a passport or visa, visit the CIBT Web site.

Age Restrictions

  • Traveling with Minors: For voyages originating in North America, Celebrity requires that passengers under 21 years old must be accompanied in the cabin by an adult who is 21 years or older. For voyages originating in South America, Europe, Asia, Australia or New Zealand, Celebrity requires that passengers under 18 years old must be accompanied in the cabin by an adult who is 18 years or older. This age limit will be waived for children sailing with their parents or guardians in connecting cabins, for underage married couples, and for active duty members of the United States or Canadian military. Certain other restrictions and conditions will apply; such as compliance with the age 21 alcohol policy, and proof of marriage for underage couples or proof of active duty military status required.
  • Minimum Age to Sail: Infants sailing on a cruise must be at least 6 months old as of the first day of the cruise. However, for Transatlantic, Transpacific, select South American cruises and other select cruises, the infant (as of the first day of the cruise) must be at least 12 months old. For the purposes of this policy, any cruise that has 3 or more consecutive days at sea will require infants to be 12 months old on the first day of the cruise.
  • Denial of boarding for infants who do not satisfy these minimum age requirements may also result in the denial of boarding for one or more guests sailing with that infant. No refunds or other compensation shall be due from the cruise line to anyone as a result of the denial of boarding to an underage infant or other accompanying guests.

Pregnancy Restrictions

  • Celebrity Cruises cannot accept guests who will have entered their 24th week of pregnancy by the beginning of, or at any time during a cruise or Cruisetour. All guests are required to sign a health questionnaire upon check-in to ensure they are aware of our pregnancy policy. If you have already booked a cruise or Cruisetour and do not meet this requirement, please contact your travel agent or call us at 1-888-283-7275 and request a resolution agent.
