Healthy Cruising
According to the Centres for Disease Control, more than 20 million cases of acute gastroenteritis are reported across the United States each year, primarily on land.
Norwegian Cruise Line takes great effort in maintaining a safe and clean environment. We have stringent protocols in place for cleaning and sanitation on all of our vessels. According to CDC sanitation inspection reports over the last 10 years, Norwegian is one of the most hygienic cruise lines.
We collect health questionnaires at the pier to identify anyone that already has symptoms and we place detailed health information fact sheets in each stateroom at embarkation, which outlines potential symptoms of concern and instructs guests on what to do if they are experiencing those symptoms.
Once onboard, we recommend and request that all guests carefully observe the good hygiene practice of washing their hands before eating and after using the restroom. We also encourage frequent use of the hand sanitizer dispensers strategically located throughout the ship.
If a guest is diagnosed as having any symptoms, they are asked to stay in their stateroom until their symptoms abate. They receive free medical treatment and medications.
