• We do not have access to live inventory and this sailing is open to be sold to the public. We do our best to update availability as often as possible but cabins and categories can sell out without our knowledge. In the event your preferred cabin category is no longer available, you will be contacted to make a new selection prior to us submitting your deposit.
• Children are welcome on Star Clippers cruises, however, there is no structured program providing supervision or activities for young children. Children pay the same rate as adults. 
• Internet & Wi-Fi is available onboard wherever technically possible. Wi-Fi access is available in certain areas of the ship and available on computers in the library. Internet and Wi-Fi access can be purchased via cards sold in the Sloop Shop. 
• Cabins are equipped with a private bathroom, air-conditioning, TV, hairdryer and private safe. 
• Star Flyer provides passengers with 110-volt (American current).
• Star Flyer does not have elevators or ramps and access to land is often via small tender boats. Passengers must be in good physical condition and able to ambulate on their own.
• If you follow a strict diet or have concerns about food preparation, it’s best to check with us before registering.  Due to a very small galley and kitchen staff not all dietary requests can be guaranteed.
• Guests are prohibited from bringing alcoholic beverages onboard the ship. Any alcohol purchased in ports of call will be retained and returned at the end of the voyage.
• The atmosphere on the ship is relaxed and casual. During the daytime, shorts, bathing attire with cover-ups, light pants, and hats are recommended. In the evening t-shirts and shorts are not to be worn for dinner. Gentlemen should wear shirts with collars and sleeves; jackets are optional. Sun dresses, skirts or slacks for women are recommended. 

The ship has stabilizers to keep it from rocking and rolling too much and in general, the seas you will be sailing in are mostly calm. However, storms and winds can kick up, making the seas a bit more rough. If you are prone to seasickness, it’s recommended to keep a seasickness patch on while at sea. I’ll also do my best to try to find you a cabin as centrally located as possible, based on current availability.

In order to receive a full refund, notice of cancellation must be received in writing by Star Clippers no later than 120 days prior to sailing.  After that time, the following penalties will apply: 

• 119-90 days prior: $400 per person (Categories 2-6) or $800 per person (Category 1, Deluxe, Owners)
• 89-60 days prior: 50% of cruise fare
• 59-30 days prior: 75% of cruise fare
• 29 days prior or less: no refund
• *Regardless of the date of cancellation, there is no refund of the $50 per person agency service fee*

While children are welcome, please know there are no formal programs or services for kids. They will also be charged the rate as an adult. Please note there is a maximum of 3 per cabin (except in the Owners Suite) and the number of triple cabins are limited. Families of 4 or more will have to book more than one cabin, and one adult of 18 years or older will be required in each cabin. Cabins are are not adjoining but we will make every effort to book you as close to one another as possible.

Leave your suit and cocktail dress at home because there’s no formal attire needed on this cruise! Throughout the day, feel free to wear a sundress, bathing suit, shorts, etc. For dinner, men will need a pair of dress pants and a collared shirt and women will need an informal dress or pair of pants.

There are no elevators on the ship so guests must be able to ambulate up and down narrow staircases and around some obstacles on the upper deck like ropes and cleats. When arriving in some ports, you may be required to take a tender boat into shore, which may indicate a wet landing. You must feel comfortable transferring from the ship into a smaller boat.

The ship maintains a very small galley and limited number of kitchen staff.  While they do their best to accommodate everyone’s needs, not all dietary preparations are possible.  It’s best to inquire directly if you have concerns.
