TRAVEL REQUIREMENTS BY DESTINATION

- If traveling internationally, the countries you are flying to and/or connecting through may have different testing and booster stipulations, and we encourage you to visit the government and airport websites of every country you will be traveling to throughout your journey to familiarize yourself with their requirements.
- There may be additional testing requirements and/or entry forms for certain embarkation ports and/or ports of call along an itinerary. Please visit www.ncl.com/travel-requirements-by-country for further details, and make sure to complete these forms before leaving home.
- Masks are optional on board, with the exception of sailings visiting Italy, where they are required while the vessel is alongside and in port. Italian ports specifically require KN95/FFP2 type masks.
- Please visit www.ncl.com/freestyle-cruise/cruise-travel-documents to learn about the required travel documentation that you will need for your voyage.

Please remember that awareness and compliance with all travel requirements is the responsibility of the guest. Failure to comply with the requirements listed on the sites noted above will unfortunately result in denial of embarkation. We encourage you to check these sites often, as regulations change frequently and with very short notice. As government regulations evolve, our health and safety protocols will evolve as needed to ensure compliance.

Thank you, and we look forward to welcoming you aboard very soon.

Sincerely,

Katty Byrd
