Creator's Key Takeaways

There is only one ship that allows you to bring your pets on board, and that's the Queen Mary 2 from Kunard.

Service animals, however, are different and they're trained to do a specific task for their owners, although not necessarily required.

Each cruise line may have slightly different requirements for service animals, so it's best to contact them before your cruise to make sure that your accommodations can be met.

Failure to provide proper documentation to the cruise line before embarcation day could result in a denial of boarding for the animal.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Contact your cruise line before your cruise to confirm service animal requirements.
Check the countries you plan on visiting for additional documentation needs.
Notify the cruise line of your service animal within the required time frame.
Get documentation sorted out as soon as possible to avoid boarding denial.
