  1. Introduction

    These are the Terms and Conditions under which you book your cruise holiday and travel on any P&O Cruises product we sell you. Once you make a payment towards your cruise, you become bound by these Booking and Travel Conditions, so it is important that you read them carefully. P&O Cruises / We / Our / Us means Carnival plc. You are entering into this contract with Carnival plc trading as P&O Cruises, ARBN 107 998 443.Certain laws such as the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) and any applicable state based consumer legislation (from here known as ‘consumer laws’), are in place for your protection. They are designed to ensure our services are provided with due care and skill and are reasonably fit for a cruise holiday. These Booking and Travel Conditions do not alter any protection given to you by consumer laws.All prices are correct at the time of publication and are quoted in Australian dollars, unless otherwise noted.

  2. Cruise itineraries are not guaranteed
    Many factors may affect our ability to provide any particular itinerary. These include weather, mechanical difficulties, civil unrest or other unforeseen circumstances. We agree to use reasonable endeavours to provide a cruise in accordance with our published schedules and itineraries. However, we do not guarantee itineraries and they do not form part of your contract with us. If we are unable to operate in accordance with our published itinerary, we may in some circumstances offer you assistance or compensation in accordance with clause 27.
  3. Bookings

    Each room booked represents an individual booking and can accommodate between one (1) and four (4) guests, depending on the room configuration. Each booking will have a unique booking reference.
    A single traveller supplement applies to guests occupying a room alone. This will be outlined to you before you book with your travel agent, online or through our Customer Service & Sales team.
    If you decide to make your P&O Cruises booking through a registered travel agent, any amendments or enquiries on the booking will need to be made by your travel agent.
    A booking, and payments on a booking, can only be made by a person aged 18 years or over.

  4. Your agreement with us
    When you first make a payment towards your cruise holiday, you represent that you have authority from all guests on your booking(s) to accept our Booking and Travel Conditions on their behalf. Parents/Legal guardians accept the Booking and Travel Conditions on behalf of their children, including those who travel in a separate room or inter-connecting room. Once we have received payment on a booking, a legally binding agreement on these Booking and Travel Conditions becomes effective between all guests on the booking(s) and Carnival plc.
  5. Your Fare

    Your fare is determined by the fare type, the number of guests in your room, its location on the ship, the amenities offered, port charges, taxes, fees and port expenses, and any applicable airfares including taxes and fees. Child fares, where available, only apply when children are the third (3rd) or fourth (4th) guest in a room and are aged under 13 years.
    The cruise fare includes onboard accommodation, main meals, entertainment and some activities onboard, gym and some fitness classes, as well as taxes, fees and port expenses. Additional charges may apply to some entertainment and activities, and main meals at onboard specialty restaurants and The Grill. Entertainment and activities may vary by cruise and ship.
    A number of optional extras are also available that are not included in the cruise fare including drink purchases, some onboard activities and entertainment, shore tours, shopping, wifi internet, laundry services, day spa services, fitness classes and additional dining options.

  6. Onboard Credit
    Onboard credit may sometimes be offered as part of promotional campaigns or they can be pre-purchased. Onboard credit is a monetary amount in Australian dollars which is applied to your onboard account to be used for onboard purchases, excluding casino credit. Any unused portion of the promotional onboard credit will expire at the end of your cruise and is not redeemable for cash at any time, excluding any onboard credit that was pre-purchased and not obtained as part of a promotional campaign, which will be refunded at the end of the cruise if not used.  Onboard credit is not transferable between any cruises, including back-to-back cruises.

  7. Payments
    Your booking is not secure until we have received a deposit. If your deposit as indicated on your booking confirmation is not received within three (3) working days, your booking will be cancelled automatically.
    Guest Type Cruise duration (nights)
      4 or less 5 to 11 12 or more
    Adult $150 $250 $400
    Child (6 mths to 12 years) $75 $125 $200
    Final payment is due 75 days prior to cruise departure.

    Please ensure you check the payment conditions, including the deposit requirements, at the time of booking as some promotional fares may have specific payment conditions that may differ from those listed above. Some promotional fares may also require full payment at the time of booking. Your deposit and final payment due dates will be indicated on your booking confirmation. If we have not received your deposit or final payment by the due date, the booking will be cancelled automatically and our Cancellation and Refund policy will apply in accordance with clause 7.
    When booking through a travel agent, they may have different payment conditions. Please check with your travel agent at the time of booking.

  8. Cancellation and Refunds
    Although we would love to see you onboard, we understand that plans can change. Should you need to cancel your booking, we ask that you notify your travel agent or our Customer Service & Sales team at your earliest convenience. The refunds or cancellation charges that will be payable depend on the amount of notice you give us, as follows:
    Days prior to cruise departure Cancellation charge
    181 days or more $0 (Full refund provided)^
    180 - 76 days Deposit amount^
    75 - 43 days 25% of total fare^*
    42 - 15 days 50% of the total fare^*
    14 days or less 100% of the total fare
    Note: 'Total Fare' is the total amount payable to us for your booking.
    ^Any Restricted P&OCruiseAir booked will be charged 100% of the total airfare paid as a cancellation fee.
    *Any Flexible P&O CruiseAir booked will be charged 100% of the total airfare paid as a cancellation fee if cancelled 44 days or less prior to departure. For Air cancellation fees, please refer to the specific P&O CruiseAir Terms and Conditions.

    Please note, your Travel Agent and promotional fares may have different cancellation and refund conditions. Please ensure you check these at the time of booking.
  9. Travel insurance
    We strongly recommend you purchase appropriate international travel insurance at the time you pay your deposit. As Australian Medicare and New Zealand Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) do not cover your travel onboard, it is important that international travel insurance is purchased for all voyages (including domestic Australian itineraries which do not visit international ports). If you do not purchases international travel insurance you may not be able to recover cancellation charges, medical costs, repatriation and other expenses that may be incurred if things do not go according to plan.
  10. Fare Changes
    Once booked, your fare is only subject to any increased taxes, fees and port expenses. You will be notified of this before it is added to your fare or to your onboard account.
    Sometimes we will release promotional fares. These can be offered and withdrawn at any time. If after booking you decide to change to one of these promotional fares, you may need to cancel your existing booking and our Cancellation and Refunds policy outlined in clause 7 will then apply.
  11. Room Changes
    On occasion, we may offer reduced cost upgrades meaning that you may be offered a higher grade room at a discounted rate. The opportunity of an upgrade is never guaranteed and will always be at our discretion.
    We may also upgrade you without consultation to a higher room grade at no extra charge. The higher grade room could be in any part of the ship (forward, mid ship or aft) and could also be on a lower deck. If you have chosen your booked room for a particular reason or you are travelling as a group and do not want to be considered for an upgrade, please let your travel agent or our Customer Sales & Service team know at the time of booking.
    If you are lucky enough to receive an automatic upgrade, please note that it is not possible to return to your original booked room. Even if you request not to be upgraded, your room can still be changed for operational reasons, including when the number of people booked in the room is less than the number of beds in the room (for example, 2 people booked in a quad room) or if you have selected a wheelchair accessible room and do not require one.
    In addition, when a booking is made and a specific room number is not selected (known as a ‘Guarantee’), the room will be allocated at our discretion in the grade booked, or a higher priced grade, at a later date.
  12. Fuel Supplement
    We may elect to impose a fuel supplement at any time, in which case any additional fees will apply to new bookings only. The total price quoted to you at the time of booking will be inclusive of any applicable fuel supplement.
  13. Name Changes
    Once you have made your booking, please check your Booking Confirmation, ‘Cruise Control’, or with your travel agent to ensure the details are correct. Should you need to make changes to your booking (spelling corrections or to replace a guest), no administration fees will apply. One original guest from the booking must always remain in the room.
    If all original guests cancel / are replaced, the booking will be subject to applicable cancellation charges. If a cancelling guest was the only person who qualified the booking for a promotional fare (eg. past guest fare), additional and remaining guests will no longer be entitled to this promotional fare. The booking will revert to a different fare and the remaining guests will need to pay the difference in cost, if any.
    New guests added to bookings, and new bookings made within 48 hours of departure will be asked for passport information at the time of booking for security clearance. Please note, we are unable to accept new bookings or new guests on existing bookings after 5pm (Sydney time) on the day prior to departure.
    If you have a P&O CruiseAir package, additional fees will be charged as per the P&O CruiseAir Terms and Conditions.
  14. Pregnancy
    Guests who are pregnant during their cruise are required to supply a physicians ‘fit to travel’ note, including your estimated due date, prior to embarkation. We are unable to accept any guests who will have entered their 24th week or later of pregnancy, by the end of the cruise.
  15. Minimum age to travel
    Due to limited neo-natal facilities onboard and at the destinations we visit, the following minimum ages apply:
    Itinerary Minimum age to travel
    Australian domestic (coastal cruises) and New Zealand domestic (coastal cruises) 6 months
    All other itineraries 12 months
    In addition, children under two (2) years of age must remain with their parent/legal guardian at all times, including when attending the Turtle Cove Kids Club.
    To ensure there is suitable supervision, there needs to be at least one guest 18 years or older in each room. However, to accommodate families cruising together, children may occupy a separate room to their parent/legal guardian, including an inter-connecting room, providing one child is 16 years or over.
    Subject to applicable laws, for cruises departing from an Australian port between 1 November and 7 January, any guest under 19 years of age on the day they board the cruise, must travel in the same room as a responsible adult 19 years or older. In addition, from 8 January to 31 January, there is a limit on the number of guests under 19 years of age who can travel unaccompanied. Once the limit is reached, a responsible adult 19 years or older must travel in the same room. We can advise you at the time of booking whether the limit applies to your booking. P&O Cruises can waive the responsible adult requirement at our discretion. The responsible adult is accountable for guests under 19 years of age in their room for the duration of the cruise, and the 'Rights of the Captain' under clause 28 will be applied to anyone who displays disruptive behaviour.
  16. Children & Teenagers
    For the safety and enjoyment of all onboard, there are limits on the number of children and teenagers that can be carried within different age groups. The age of the guest on the day they board the cruise, is the age we use for the entire holiday. We can advise you at the time of booking whether we are able to accept bookings for children and teenagers on the cruise you have chosen.
    Parents/Legal guardians are responsible for children and teenagers at all times, including when participating in Kids Club activities. If a child or teenager displays dangerous or disruptive behaviour, the 'Rights of the Captain' under clause 28 will be applied to both parent/legal guardian and child/teenager.
    Some public lounges and onboard entertainment are designated as 'adults only'. Parents/Legal guardians are responsible for ensuring that children and teenagers under the age of 18 do not attend these restricted areas.
    Children's access to pools and spas may be restricted and children will not be permitted to use any pools and spas marked for adult only use. Children must be toilet trained and under their parent's/guardian's supervision in order to use onboard pools and spas. Children wearing nappies will not be permitted to enter onboard pools and spas.
  17. Kids Clubs
    Kids Clubs are included in the cruise fare and are divided into four age-specific groups:
    • Turtle Cove - 2 to 6 year olds
    • Shark Shack - 7 to 10 year olds
    • HQ - 11 to 14 year olds
    • HQ+ - 15 to 17 year olds
    Children under two (2) years of age are welcome to use the Kids Club facilities under the direct supervision of their parent/legal guardian. To attend the Kids Clubs without a parent/legal guardian, children need to be two (2) years of age or over and toilet trained. If a guest when boarding the ship is aged 17 years but turns 18 during the cruise, access to HQ+ will only be granted should the guest remain on an under 18 cruise card, due to our strict no alcohol policy in the  HQ+ centre.
    Use of Kids Clubs requires daily registration and entry is on a first-come-first-served basis as places are limited. As activities and entertainment for each Kids Club is tailored to the age group, children will only be able to attend the relevant Kids Club for their age. Group child minding for children 2-12 years is available between 10.30pm and 1am only, for a fee.
  18. Visas, Passports and Vaccinations
    When booking a cruise visiting an international port, you are responsible to ensure you have all necessary visas, vaccinations and travel documents, including a passport that is valid for the minimum duration required based on the countries you are visiting. Most countries will require passports to be valid for a minimum of six months beyond the date of the cruise return.
    Without the necessary passport, visas and/or vaccinations, local authorities may deny you boarding, prevent you from going ashore, issue a fine or deny the ship entry into the port. It is also your responsibility to ensure you have all the necessary documentation which permits you to travel.
    In addition, travel on a Round Trip Cruise from Australia will not be recognised by Australian Immigration to have left Australia and therefore the cruise cannot be used to revalidate an Australian visa.
  19. Identification Requirements for Domestic cruises
    For domestic cruises departing an Australian port that do not visit an international port, and for domestic cruises departing a New Zealand port that do not visit an international port, a valid passport or government issued photo identification is required. Accepted forms of government issued photo identification includes drivers licences, proof of age cards (Queensland ‘Adult Proof of Age Card’ will be accepted, however the older version of Queensland ‘Card 18+’ will not be accepted) and Government ID cards. For Australian domestic cruises, a current Medicare card can be used for guests under 18 years of age. For New Zealand domestic cruises, an original or certified copy of the child’s birth certificate or a school pass with photo will be accepted for guests under 18 years of age.
  20. Illicit and prohibited items
    To ensure a safe and enjoyable holiday for all our guests items which may pose a risk to the safety of guests and crew are not allowed to be brought onboard our ships including: Irons, kettles, coffee machines, candles and any other heating devices, illegal drugs, illicit substances, flammable liquids, hover boards, and weapons (including knives of any kind)remote control devices of any kind, including drones. In addition certain electrical items and personal grooming devices, such as power boards, laptops, phone and camera charges, hair dryers and straighteners, curling irons and shavers may be allowed onboard if they are deemed to be in a safe and proper working condition, and used with proper caution. However, if such devices are deemed to pose a hazard, they will be confiscated and returned at the end of the cruise. As part of our commitment to the responsible service of alcohol and to ensure the safety and security of guests and crew, guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages onboard. In addition, the following beverage items cannot be brought onboard our ships:
    • Plastic or glass bottled drinks (including water) and slab packs of canned drinks;
    • Tetra pack drinks (including fruit juice poppers)
    Each guest can bring onboard a maximum of 12 canned drinks loosely packed in hand luggage.
    All luggage, including hand and check-in, will be x-rayed at embarkation. In addition, it may be necessary for our staff and other parties, such as port and government agencies, to search you and your luggage. You agree to allow such searches. Any prohibited items found in hand or checked in luggage will be confiscated and, if appropriate, will be available for collection at the end of the cruise. If the confiscated item is not collected at the end of the cruise, you must contact us within three (3) days of disembarking to claim the item if your item is appropriate to be returned. If you do not contact us within this time your item will be destroyed.
    We can deny boarding or disembark any person in possession of any weapons or illicit substances. We may also hand these items over to law enforcement agencies.
  21. Alcohol & Gambling
    P&O Cruises are committed to the responsible service of alcohol. There may be times when we consider it appropriate to refuse the service of alcohol to a guest for any reason. Guests must be 18 years or over to purchase or consume alcohol, or gamble onboard. Government issued photo identification may be requested (Queensland ‘Adult Proof of Age Card’ will be accepted, however the older version of Queensland ‘Card 18+’ will not be accepted).
    As part of our commitment to the responsible service of alcohol and to ensure the safety and security of guests and crew, guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages onboard. In addition, some other beverage items are also prohibited from being brought onboard. For more details please refer to the Illicit and Prohibited items clause (clause 19).
  22. Smoking
    Smoking is not permitted indoors on any of our ships. This includes in guest rooms and on private balconies. For those who smoke, there are designated outdoor areas where smoking is permitted and this information will be communicated to you onboard. Electronic cigarettes can only be used in the designated smoking areas onboard.
  23. Lost or damaged luggage and personal belongings
    Please make sure that all valuable and important items, such as jewellery, medicines, fragile items, and camera/computer/electrical equipment are carried in your hand luggage and not packed in your main luggage/suitcase or left unsecured in your room or elsewhere onboard ship. Once onboard, all valuables and important items should be stored in your in-room safe.
    In the event you lose any items onboard, please visit Reception before you disembark. Alternatively, please contact our Customer Sales and Service team on your return. Due to hygiene reasons, any unclaimed lost clothing items will be destroyed at the end of the cruise. All other items not claimed within 3 weeks of the cruise return will be donated to charity or destroyed.
    Where consumer laws and other laws permit us to exclude our liability, we will not be liable for loss of, or damage to, any luggage or other belongings, unless caused by our proven negligence or failure to provide services with due care and skill and that are reasonably fit for purpose.
  24. Your Health
    You must ensure that you are medically and physically fit for travel, and that such travel will not endanger yourself or anyone else. At the time of booking (or as soon as possible after booking), please advise us if you have any medical or physical condition that will or may require medical attention, medication or special treatment during your cruise holiday. We may also ask you to complete a health questionnaire.
    If a guest has a condition that we decide may seriously affect the enjoyment, health or safety of themselves or any other person onboard, we can refuse or cancel a booking. Such decisions will be made giving reasonable consideration to your circumstances and we will advise you of our decision as soon as possible. Where your booking is cancelled and you have provided us with a completed health questionnaire with all relevant information about your condition, you will be entitled to a full refund.
    Guests with restricted or limited mobility, and those with medical conditions must be self-sufficient or travel with a carer or someone who can assist with day-to-day activities. Our crew and medical staff are unable to act as personal carers.
    Please note that some ports can only be accessed using the ship’s tenders. Tender boats and tender ports may not be accessible to guests confined to a wheelchair or with significant mobility impairments.
  25. Onboard Medical Centre
    Each ship has a medical centre that is staffed by qualified, licensed doctors and nurses, who, in addition to routine office hours, are available 24 hours a day. All P&O Cruises’ medical centres are well equipped to handle most medical conditions and have been continuously accredited since 2006 to international healthcare quality standards and certified to ISO 9001:2008.
    While all P&O cruises’ medical centres are equipped to handle many medical conditions, there may be occasions where it becomes necessary to disembark or evacuate a guest to receive further essential medical treatment. To ensure guest safety, this decision will be made by the onboard doctor and the Captain.
    All P&O Cruises’ medical centres are only for medical needs arising onboard and cannot cater for treatments that you know you will require while on holiday.
    We are not a healthcare provider and may not be held liable for the sickness, injury or death of any guest arising from any advice, treatment, care, services or any omission by medical staff. These medical providers exercise their own medical judgement and expertise.
  26. Onboard Medical Charges
    All cruises on our ships are outside the scope of Australian Medicare, New Zealand Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) and private health insurance. Consultations, treatments and medication are charged at private rates and must be paid by you and claimed through your international travel insurance.
  27. Other Service Providers
    While we specialise in cruising holidays, you may choose to book other services with us such as flights and shore tours. We can assist you in making these arrangements; however, we act only as a booking agent. The service providers are solely responsible for the information and service offered and their conditions will apply. Where possible, we will assist in addressing any concerns you may have with these service providers.
    Any arrangements made with other service providers by or for you are your responsibility and entirely at your own risk.
  28. Ship & Itinerary Changes
    We will do everything we reasonably can to make sure everything goes according to plan; however, sometimes changes can happen that may affect your holiday experience. This could include weather, mechanical difficulties, civil unrest or any other unforeseen circumstances.
    In addition, we may charter all or part of the ship, or remove the ship from service where this becomes necessary. We may change the itinerary, ship or cancel the cruise due to operational or commercial requirements. We will notify you of these changes as soon as we can. If we are forced to cancel your cruise for any reason prior to departure we will provide a full refund. Since your itinerary is not guaranteed, please do not make any important arrangements or meetings based on the proposed itinerary.
    Changes within our control
    Where we make a significant change to the ports in your itinerary prior to departure and this is due to a circumstance within our control, for example for operational or commercial requirements you will have the choice of:
    1. the new itinerary;
    2. an alternative cruise of comparable standard, if available; or
    3. cancelling the cruise for a full refund of your fare paid.
    For the purposes of this clause, 'significant change' means a change to the city of departure or disembarkation, or to the majority (by number) of the other ports in your itinerary.
    Changes outside our control
    If it is necessary to change the itinerary due to safety, maritime law, severe weather, to protect human life or health or other factors outside our control, we will attempt to offer a revised itinerary as close as possible to the original itinerary. We will not provide any compensation in connection with the revised itinerary unless consumer laws require otherwise.
  29. Travel Restrictions and rights of the Captain
    You are responsible for ensuring that no travel restrictions apply to you. If police or any other authority in any jurisdiction notify us of, or we otherwise become aware of, any matter that reasonably causes us to believe your presence onboard presents a risk to your own health or safety or the health or safety of other guests and crew, we, or the Captain, may deny you boarding. A full refund will provided to any guest denied boarding on this basis.
    Once the cruise has commenced, if a guest seriously affects the safety, well-being or enjoyment of themselves or any other person onboard, the Captain has the right to confine, sedate or disembark the guest. In such cases, we are not responsible for any expenses including your return home. In addition, you will not be entitled to any refunds. While the Captain will always act reasonably in these circumstances, you accept that the safety, well-being and enjoyment of everyone onboard, comes first.
  30. Leaving the cruise early
    If you are required, or choose, to leave the cruise for any reason (unless caused by our proven negligence or failure to provide services with due care and skill and that are reasonably fit for purpose), we are not responsible for any expenses, including your return home. This also applies if you do not return to the ship in time for sailing after a port visit. If we assist with any costs, you will need to repay us on your return. In addition, you will not be entitled to any refunds.
  31. P&O Pacific Partnership
    P&O Cruises is committed to supporting communities in the destinations we visit. As part of our P&O Pacific Partnership Program a $1 donation will be automatically added to the onboard folio of each guest aged 18 years or over. The donation will be used towards community based initiatives in the destinations we visit. This is an optional donation and you may remove it from your account at the Reception Desk before you disembark. Visit the P&O Cruises website for more information on our latest Pacific Partnership measures.
  32. Limitation of Liability
    Limitation of liability for Recreational Services
    Save for liability for significant personal injury caused by Reckless Conduct by us or our servants or agents, we exclude liability for all Excluded Recreational Liabilities arising out of the supply of Recreational Services.
    Contributory Negligence
    Our liability will be reduced in proportion to any negligence or fault on your part.
    Notification of Claims
    You agree to use all reasonable efforts to report any complaints or claims onboard, or otherwise bring the matter to our attention as soon as possible. You acknowledge that failure to bring any matter to our attention whilst onboard will limit our ability to investigate the matter following your cruise.
  33. Choice of law and jurisdiction
    This contract is governed by the laws in force in New South Wales. You agree that any action you bring against us will be brought in Australia. If you have a claim against us, you agree only to bring action against us and not any of our related bodies corporate as defined in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).
