Pack lightly! Some airlines have restrictive luggage policies and excess baggage can end up being very expensive. In addition, cabin space on board the ship is limited and you may not be able to store your suitcases in your cabin. Avoid bringing large suitcases and try to carry only essentials with you. Toiletries and other personal care items are available for purchase on board or in most ports. You should bring enough basic items to get you through your first three weeks onboard.
If you incur excess luggage charges on your way to the ship, these will be at your own expense.
Some things you may want to bring:
Clothing | Toiletries | Other Items |
Socks | Deodorant | Alarm Clock |
Underwear | Brush/Comb | Razors |
Sleepwear | Toothbrush/Toothpaste | Contact lenses/Solution |
Jeans or long pants (2 pairs) | Mouthwash | Camera |

*Prescriptions and Medications – In the event, you have to take prescription medications while onboard, including oral contraceptives, please ensure to bring enough to cover the entire length of your contract. All prescription medications must be registered with the onboard Physician. After boarding, please see the ship’s Physician as soon as possible if you have to register any prescriptions/medications. Do not pack valuables or important documents such as your sign-on documents in your checked luggage. If your luggage is lost on your flight from your home to the ship and you do not have your sign-on documentation, you may be denied boarding and sent home at your own expense. South Asia Cruise Services Limited and Cordelia Cruises are not responsible for luggage lost while on your way to the ship.
