Assistance dogs are subject to national and EU Regulations regarding travel.
It is your responsibility to check that the assistance dog can be carried to the ports of embarkation and disembarkation and that the dog is not prohibited from going ashore at the various ports of call.
Assistance dogs must have all necessary passports & papers and comply with national regulations regarding health, inoculations, training, and travel.
Emotional Support Dogs are not regarded as Assistance dogs with some cruise lines and would therefore not be allowed on board.
We will need to confirm with the Cruise Line before we book your holiday. To discuss this further with our cruise experts, please call 020 3514 3022.
