Airline Tickets And Joining Costs

If you are responsible for the purchase of your joining airline tickets, please ensure that you arrive at the port of embarkation (where you join the ship) at least six (6) hours before the ship sets sail. You may require a hotel overnight in the port of embarkation depending on the arrival time of your flight. Please discuss your flight tickets and possible hotel stays with your recruitment agency as they will provide you with proper guidance.

South Asia Cruise Services Limited strongly recommends that you purchase a Marine (Seaman’s) Fare Ticket. These tickets are usually fully refundable without any penalty. If you purchase a published fare ticket through a regular travel agent or on the Internet and your assignment date is changed, you may lose part or all of the money that you paid for a regular ticket. Marine Fare tickets usually provide you with a luggage allowance of 40 kilograms. Most published fare tickets provide you with not more than 20 kilograms for baggage. Please refer to the section Excess Luggage earlier in this guide.

South Asia Cruise Services Limited has its own in‐house Marine Travel Agency by the name of Europe USA Travel (www.europeusatravel.com), which can provide you with a competitive quote for a fully refundableMarine Fare ticket. If SACS provides you the joining ticket, your recruitment agency will provide you with the flight information, e‐ticket number, and other joining instructions.
