Accounts
For your convenience a credit system is operated for all on board services, except for foreign currency exchange and ‘games of chance’. When a chargeable service is provided, you will be required to present your account card and sign a cashpoint receipt, retaining one copy for your reference.
Your account is open from the time you embark the vessel with your swipe card, which is issued at check-in and which acts as your on board account card. To avoid any necessity to queue in order to settle your account at cruise end, you will be requested to present your credit card at Reception early in the cruise so that a swipe can be taken. You can check the balance of your account at any stage in the cruise and it will then be automatically debited after disembarkation. On Balmoral and Braemar you can view your account on FOi (Interactive TV) by visiting ‘Account Review’ from the main menu.
The following credit cards are accepted: American Express, Diners Club, Eurocard, MasterCard and Visa. We also accept Visa debit cards but regret we are unable to accept; Maestro, Solo, Electron or travel agents debit cards on board. Neither can we accept travellers cheque cards.
For security we strongly advise travellers cheques as the safest form of currency. These can be cashed with no limits. You may also cash personal cheques to the value of your cheque guarantee card - the number of occasions will be dependent upon cruise duration.
The currency used on board is Sterling, which must be the currency used to settle your on board account if paying in cash. We also carry currencies for most of the ports of call we visit – please see Bureau de Change for more details.
