What is the currency on board and howdo I pay for items I buy? Currency on board all ships is the US dollar, and you’ll find the Purser’s Office acts as a handy financial centre. You don’t need to take cash, as all shipboard purchases are charged to your on-board account. You can settle your account by credit card or using traveller’s cheques. To make life easier, we recommend you register your credit card at embarkation. You can exchange cash and traveller’s cheques at the Purser’s Office for most currencies in use at ports of call. Please note that personal cheques cannot be cashed on board our ships.
Please note: for 2012World Voyages you will be required to settle your account at the end of each sector. These dates will be advised when you are on board.We would recommend that you ensure your card provider is aware that you are travelling.
What about beauty treatments and hairdressing? To make sure you feel tip-top at all times, our ships have salons where you can have your hair done for that special occasion. You can also enjoy a wide range of beauty treatments, including manicures and pedicures, at the Canyon Ranch SpaClub®

Is there enough to do during days at sea? Yes, plenty! You’ll be amazed by just how much there is to do. From deck sports, friendly quizzes and dance classes to fascinating talks and terrific movies, there’s so much to choose from. So why not try your hand at a game of shuffleboard on deck? Your ship’s Daily Programme (delivered to your stateroom each evening) has full details of all the activities, events and entertainment happening each day. For more details see:

Parents may drop off their children in our fun and exciting centres to be cared for by qualified nannies and youth counsellors. Parents may also accompany their children and participate in the activities.
The Programme is operated on a complimentary basis and is available for guests’ convenience from 9:00am – midnight on all ships. Parents may drop off their children at any time during the hours of operation. We do not offer private, in-stateroom babysitting.
We have certified nannies to change nappies, bottle feed and entertain our youngest guests. We have cots on board to ensure the comfort and safety of babies and infants (who must be at least 1 year old to participate).
We offer exciting age-appropriate activities, including arts and crafts, board games, sports, movies, video games, discos and parties. The Zone and Playzone are open daily from 9am until midnight closing for lunch between noon and 2pm. There are no feeding facilities in The Zone or Playzone so subsequently parents will have to make their own arrangements to cater for their children.
