There is always a vegetarian option for all meals on board AMADEUS ships. Our chefs and restaurant staff do all they can to ensure that all other dietary requirements are met wherever possible. Such requirements of individual passengers can, however, only be fulfilled if service fulfilment for all passengers on board can also be ensured. In all cases, passengers are obliged to control the food which has been served to them in so far as it is possible. Passengers must inform us of any food intolerances or dietary requirements as soon as possible (at least 60 days prior to departure). If we are not informed in good time, passengers cannot expect their dietary requirements to be considered. We reserve the right to not permit a passenger on board if the fulfilment of their dietary requirements would pose too great a challenge for the on-board organisation.
