It is a good idea to state your preferred dining times to your travel agent at the time of booking. While Costa cannot guarantee your time of seating, Costa people will do their best to accommodate you. Please let your travel agent know if you wish to be seated with friends.

SPECIAL DIETS ACCOMMODATED
Costa will make every attempt to satisfy special dietary needs. Costa ask that you have your travel agent submit your request in writing at least four weeks prior to sailing.

DRESS CODE
Daytime: Daytime dress on a Costa cruise is casual such as light, cotton clothing or swimwear with cover up when indoors. Sweaters, lightweight jackets, raincoats and hats are also appropriate for Northern Europe. Tennis shoes or low-heeled walking shoes are recommended for exploring the ports of call. While most shore excursions do not have dress codes, some tours specifically prohibit shorts and sleeveless shirts, and require ladies to wear knee-length skirts or slacks. Additionally, for those guests traveling to Northern Europe, sweaters, lightweight jackets, raincoats and hats are also recommended.

Evening: Your Costa Cruise will feature 2 formal nights on 7- night cruises where men may choose from tuxedos or dark suits and ladies wear evening or cocktail dresses. The number of formal nights may vary depending on cruise length and itinerary.

On Board Baby-Sitting
Caribbean: Costa offers group baby-sitting for children age 3 (out of diapers) and older. The babysitting schedules can be found in the Daily Program distributed onboard (private in-stateroom babysitting is not available). There will also be two 'Parents Night Out' during the cruise where parents have the opportunity to enjoy the evening worry free while their children will be entertained with special activities, including their own buffet or pizza party. Best of all these special nights are offered at no extra charge.

Costa's In Port Children's Program
Caribbean: Costa's In Port program offers children a variety of activities onboard to entertain them. Parents will receive information pertaining to scheduled activities at the beginning of the cruise. Ask about specially priced shore excursions for children 12 years and under.

Europe: Costa offers a comprehensive children's program throughout our Europe cruise season. The months of July and August are the most popular traveling times for families with children. Activities vary by ship and itinerary.

Minors Policy
Guests under the age of 21 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. On selected seasonal departures, guests 21 to 24 years old must have one person at least 25 years old in the same stateroom.

Medical Care
There is a physician and nurse available 24 hours a day while at sea and during scheduled hours of the day while in port. All Costa ships are equipped with an infirmary. Professional services, care and medications are available at a reasonable cost. The medical staff can also provide medication to relieve any symptoms of seasickness. If you require prescription medications, bring an ample supply. Some prescription medications, might not be available onboard or ashore.

The service charge, which is calculated daily according to the length of the cruise, the destination, and the ship, is used to provide incentive to staff who perform hotel duties and to continually improve the quality of service offered onboard Costa Cruises ships. The service charge is an integral part of the cruise and therefore the amount cannot be altered. As a convenience, Costa Cruises will add a modest service charge per person, per night to the onboard account as a gratuity for cabin and dining services. Bartenders, servers, deck stewards and other staff may be tipped as service is received. A 15% gratuity is added to beverage purchases which are added to the onboard account.
