Some Cunard promotional fares will offer a guarantee grade room. This allows you to choose the type of room you would like i.e Interior or Balcony etc but you cannot choose the location or room number. Cunard will choose your room and advise you on departure in the App. Note this can be anywhere on the ship and if booking an Oceanview or Balcony it could have an obstructed view.

• It is the responsibility of the customer to inform us at the time of booking if they or anyone in their party is pregnant or becomes pregnant after booking.
• Cruise lines have specific policies regarding pregnancy, including restrictions that may prevent passengers from sailing if they enter the 24th week of pregnancy by the final day of the cruise. These policies vary between cruise lines and are non-negotiable.
• Customers are required to review the cruise line’s pregnancy policy before booking and ensure they meet all medical requirements for travel.
• If a pregnancy is disclosed after the booking has been confirmed and the passenger is unable to travel due to the cruise line’s pregnancy policy, standard cancellation penalties will apply as outlined in our terms and conditions.
• We will assist customers to the best of our ability in exploring alternatives (e.g., transferring the booking to another passenger) but cannot guarantee a refund or waiver of fees.
• Travel insurance is strongly recommended to cover unforeseen circumstances, including those related to pregnancy and medical conditions.
