Frequently Asked Questions

​

Before Booking

🍽

What meals are included in the price?

The base price includes full board, buffet meals, and à la carte breakfast, lunch, and dinner in the main dining room (MDR).

🍹

Is our drink package valid upon boarding?

After boarding, you can use and consume anything on the ship without hesitation, including food and drinks.

🛅

When will our luggage arrive at the cabin?

It varies; sometimes it’s already there when you reach the cabin, but other times it might take hours. It’s a good idea to pack essentials like a phone charger or swimwear in your carry-on for use on boarding day.

📶

How long before the trip can I add extra services to my booking?

At least 8 days before the cruise departure.

🆘

What is the 'emergency contact' during check-in?

The cruise line requires a name and phone number for someone to contact in case of emergency. This person should not be traveling with you.

🚌

Can excursions be booked after the initial booking?

Yes, we can email you the list of available excursions upon request. Simply send us the excursion code, and we will add it to your booking. Even if the excursion appears fully booked on the app, let us know, and we’ll try to reserve it for you!

📲

Is there an app available for every ship?

For most ships, yes, but currently the app is not available for the following ships:
- MSC Armonia
- MSC Lirica
- MSC Opera
- MSC Orchestra
- MSC Preziosa
- MSC Sinfonia.

⏰

How accurate are the departure/arrival times?

On the day of check-in, you should arrive at least 3 hours before the ship's departure. You generally need to return to the ship from excursions at least 1 hour before departure. Always check the latest boarding time before disembarking!

🛏

Can I find out the approximate location of my cabin?

Your cabin number will be available on the boarding pass and in the app.

🅿️

Can I add extra services through the app?

For most cruise lines, yes, but if you’re traveling with MSC, it’s better to email us at ahoy@clickncruise.com.

👗

Can I bring an iron on board?

No, not even a steamer, as they pose a fire hazard. However, you can use the ship’s laundry services or bring a fabric refresher spray to smooth out your clothes.

🚕

Is there a transfer to the port?

Most of the time, yes. Please email us to inquire about the options.

🍕

When is the buffet open?

Usually from early morning until late in the evening. Some cruise lines close it for a while between meals, but then you can find free snacks at the café.

🐣

From what age can children cruise?

Cruise lines generally accept children from six months of age.

👶

Until what age do children stay in the cabin for free?

On most ships children under two stay in the cabin for free. With some cruise lines, a child who is the third, fourth or fifth person in the cabin also pays only a fraction of the fare.

🛝

Are the water slides closed in winter?

No, they stay open in winter too and the pools are heated, though it also depends on the weather.

📡

Is there free Wi-Fi on board?

No, but you can buy one of several internet packages.

⏰

When should I arrive at the port?

Make sure you arrive at the port and check in at least three hours before the ship sails.

🫙

Do I need to tip the crew?

No. The mandatory service charge (gratuities) is already paid, so nothing more is expected.

🎳

Which activities aren't included in the price?

The speciality restaurants, the spa, the zipline, bowling and the cinema usually cost extra on board.

🧃

Which drinks are included in the price?

At the buffet you get unlimited water, juice, coffee, tea and milk.

🍹

What do the drinks packages include?

On most ships water, tea, coffee and juice are free at the buffet. A drinks package can still be worth it, because it includes many cocktails you can order as often as you like on board.

🇭🇺

Is there a guide on board who speaks my language?

No, but the crew speaks several languages and is always very helpful.

🛏

Double bed or twin beds in the cabin?

The beds can be arranged either way: usually two single beds are pushed together with a topper on them, and they're very comfortable.

🥗

Do they cater for food allergies on board?

Yes, there are gluten-free and lactose-free menus, as well as vegetarian and vegan ones. After boarding, tell the reception about your food intolerances and the head waiter will go through them with you.

🪟

Can the window be opened in an oceanview cabin?

No, but the view is wonderful.

Before Departure

🥾

When do I need to be back on board after an excursion?

The All Aboard Time is shown in the daily programme, in the app and on a board as you go ashore. Everyone has to be back by then, because the ship doesn't wait for anyone.

🎧

How much noise gets into the cabin?

Hardly any: the cabins are soundproofed and the curtains are blackout curtains.

💃

What kind of theme nights are there?

For example a gala night, when everyone dresses up, or a white night, when everyone wears white. The themes are a surprise, though.

🛟

What to do after boarding
