DiazLoves2Cruise Posted July 2, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I'm reading all the posts about World Cruises and, one day, maybe I'll be lucky enough to take one, however, reading these posts, I have a number of questions about booking a world cruise: 1) For those of you with pets - how do you arrange for their care? Do you hire pet/house sitters? 2) I see on the Cunard website that tipping is included in the fare and if booked early enough that onboard credit is offered. Do travel agents offer any bonuses above and beyond these perks for a full world cruise? 3) How are VISAS handled? There are countries that will be visited that will require visas - do you have to obtain them or does the cruise line handle that? 4) What type of vaccinations are needed? How far in advance do you get them? I know these are hard to answer questions but, I'm just being nosey since it is a goal to set for myself for retirement... 25 years from now :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
