IMPORTANT!!! Learn about restrictions for Pregnant Women and Infants
for taking a cruise, by Best Cruises Online
Please make sure you check with the curse line for the latest
requirement since they can change at any time. Do do our
best to make the information current but we can not guarantee it. So
again before ordering your curse check with the cruise line before
ordering your trip.
Cruise lines most of the time will require a physician's letter
(faxed in advance or hand delivered at time of check- in). The
letter will need to state the woman and baby are in good health, the
pregnancy is NOT A HIGH RISK, both are fit to travel and the
letter MUST include the date of the expected child's birth and of course
the name of the mother. I would also suggest to include her age
and the husband name if traveling with her.
Carnival Cruise Line
Pregnant Women: If pregnancy is less than 27 weeks or
less on day of embarkation. (Date the start). You should have a
Physician's letter as outline as to the due date etc. prior to the time
of checking in.
Infants: Minimum age is 4 months. I personally would
not take a child on board a ship less than six months of age.
After that age they can enjoy it. Also some children tens to
get sea sick. I don't think you want to spend your vacation in a
cabin.

less than six years of age I would not recommend.
