Attire & Packing Guide

Packing Tips

Luggage: Each passenger can bring a reasonable amount of personal property and luggage onboard. For your comfort and convenience, we recommend limiting larger luggage to one or two pieces. Be sure to check with your airline about baggage allowances and weight and size restrictions, as extra fees may apply.

Overnight Bag: Please bring a small overnight bag for your last night at sea. Since staff will collect your luggage the night before disembarkation, you’ll need this bag for night clothes and toiletries.

Luggage Tags: Ensure all your bags, including carry-ons, are identified with your Azamara Cruises luggage tags. These should be filled out and affixed to each piece before you leave home.

Insurance: Insure all luggage and valuables. Azamara cannot be responsible for their loss or damage. Baggage protection, as well as a variety of other coverages designed to protect you during your cruise vacation, are offered through Azamara Trip Protection by Allianz.

Documents: Check to see that your tickets, boarding card, and other documents are in order, and pack them in a bag that you carry with you.
