Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. No daily service charge appears on your onboard account and nothing is expected at disembarkation: the carrier writes that gratuities are neither required nor expected. On a long cruise the gap against a line that posts an automatic, non-adjustable service charge shows up plainly on the closing statement.
Yes, with no package to buy. Premium spirits and wines are served on board at all times, and your suite bar is stocked to your taste before you embark. This is where the comparison with a drinks-package line gets interesting, because there is no tier and no restricted list.
Yes, without exception. No surcharge restaurant, no cover charge, no paid reservation. On lines that keep their best tables behind a supplement, a couple eating well three nights out of seven spends a real sum. Here the question does not arise.
Yes. Unlimited-minute packages over Starlink satellite, with no card to buy and no meter to watch. The usual caveat holds: at high latitudes no satellite link is constant, and a polar crossing is not the place to promise remote work.
No. It is the one significant line that stays yours, along with the Ventures by Seabourn programme on the expedition ships. Ask for the list of outings and their cost before you leave: it is easier to weigh at home than at the excursion desk on the first evening.
With Holland America Line Limited, operator of the Seabourn ships since 17 December 2024. Bookings before that date fall under Holland America Line N.V. Both companies belong to Carnival Corporation. Check which one appears on your contract before writing to anyone.
It depends on the nature of the claim, and the distinction matters. Personal injury or death: the United States District Court for the Western District of Washington at Seattle, or a King County court. Everything else: binding arbitration in the same county, with a class-action waiver. It is the least favourable clause in the contract.
Very little time, and this is the easiest point to miss. Six months' written notice for personal injury or death, but only fifteen days for any other claim. Then one year to file suit and ninety days to serve.
Not the carrier: nothing establishes that it holds a Quebec licence. The protection comes from the agency. Voyages AquaTerra holds a licence from the Office de la protection du consommateur, your payments pass through a trust account, and the compensation fund for travel agency customers covers the departure.
Yes, and without notice. The contract allows the carrier to cancel the cruise or change the route, ports and timetable for any reason. An advertised call is therefore never guaranteed, which is worth knowing if you are choosing an itinerary for one particular port.
The information is uneven from ship to ship. The two expedition ships publish five accessible suites, two penthouse and three veranda. The three classic ships publish none. We ask on every booking rather than putting a figure forward.
No, they have been withdrawn. The announcement came on 20 February 2026 and took effect at the end of the 2025-2026 Antarctic season. The company cites lower take-up than expected, heavy maintenance and tightening regulation. Since the dives were paid and not included, the fare is unchanged.
By her delivery date, and almost nothing else. Same yard, the same one hundred and seventy metres, the same one hundred and thirty-two suites, the same PC6 polar class, the same expedition team. The Pursuit entered service in August 2023, a year after the Venture.
Twice. It was announced for May 2022, then for December of that year, and finally happened in August 2023. More than a year off the original schedule, with guests who had already booked.
One hundred and eight: seventeen in 2026, thirty-six in 2027, forty-nine in 2028. That is the smallest inventory among the Seabourn ships still in service, which follows from the nature of expedition work, where a season holds fewer departures than elsewhere.
