Azamara Cruises Health & Safety Protocols

Azamara emphasizes passenger wellness and high standards of vessel operation, pairing boutique small-ship luxury with global maritime safety systems. Health and safety infrastructure centers around disinfection technologies, onboard medical care, and alignment with regional port guidelines.

• Sanitation Standards: Operating in accordance with U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Vessel Sanitation Program standards, ships utilize medical-grade cleaning protocols, EPA-certified disinfectants, and surface disinfection in public venues and staterooms.
• Onboard Medical Capabilities: Every ship features a medical center staffed by licensed physicians and nurses. Facilities are equipped with diagnostic equipment, pharmacy services, and support to provide medical care at sea.
• Digital Safety Briefing: Traditional assembly drills are streamlined via a digital muster process. Guests review safety briefings via mobile applications or stateroom televisions on embarkation day, completing check-in at assigned muster stations.
• Port and Country Compliance: While universal testing mandates have transitioned out of standard operation, travelers observe localized health, entry, and vaccination requirements enforced by individual countries and international maritime borders along the itinerary.
• Pregnancy and Infant Safety: Azamara does not accept passengers entering or exceeding their 24th week of pregnancy during the sailing. The standard minimum sailing age for infants is 6 months, increasing to 12 months for select remote routes and itineraries featuring three or more consecutive days at sea.
