We check all information and descriptions for accuracy. However, changes can happen after publication, and some facilities may be withdrawn. If any significant changes occur, we'll do our best to inform you in a timely fashion. As many of our destinations are remote, facilities may vary depending on local conditions.

The above list is not exhaustive. The SSO/Captain are authorized to make a professional judgment as to the legality of any item declared, detected, or discovered on board.

Our expert team monitors HPAI closely, collaborating with the scientific community and industry bodies to protect wildlife. Where HPAI has been detected, we implement enhanced biosecurity procedures. If landing sites are closed to prevent transmission, alternative activities will be planned, and we will notify guests in advance of any significant changes. For more details, visit the Health & Safety section of the Help Centre.

Please bring enough prescribed medication for the entire trip, as our onboard medical facilities do not supply it.

Seasickness pills are available for purchase at reception (€1 each). We recommend bringing your preferred medication, though. Sea bands are also available onboard.

An English-speaking physician and nurse are always on board, with essential medical equipment and medications for small emergencies. For serious cases, the nearest hospital will be contacted. Medical consultations and medications will incur charges.

Why do I need to complete a Medical Screening Form? Due to the remote nature of our expeditions to Antarctica, it’s important for us to be aware of any health concerns. To prioritise the health and safety of our guests and crew, a Medical Screening Form is required for expeditions to Antarctica. For more detailed information on this topic, click here.

Please have details about your travel insurance, medical conditions, surgeries, allergies, medications, and pregnancy status ready. This helps us assess your fitness for travel.

Complete the form online through the Vikand Medical portal. It includes sections for both you and your doctor to fill out. If your doctor can't sign the form, please consult an alternative or use Vikand’s online doctor service.

Only around 0.1% of guests fail the medical screening. For more information, please reach out to medical@travelhx.com.

As part of our Medical Screening Form Promise, if your Medical Screening Form is declined for medical reasons by Vikand Solutions, HX will provide a full refund for all bookings made through them, including flights, hotels, and ground transportation. However, for any arrangements made outside of HX, you'll need to check your travel insurance for coverage. This promise is valid for new bookings on Antarctica cruises departing from 1 October 2024. The Medical Screening Form must be submitted via the Vikand portal at least four weeks prior to departure. Forms submitted after this period may not qualify for a refund. This offer does not apply to rescheduled or cancelled cruises, and claims must be submitted within a specified time after your return date.

Medical Forms are reviewed by Vikand after both the Guest and Doctor sections are fully submitted. Please complete both sections entirely before submitting. No partial form revisions are allowed. Vikand will contact you via the email on your form if additional medical information is needed. You'll be notified by HX if the screening can't be completed due to incomplete data. Please ensure both sections are fully completed to avoid processing delays.

Even if your doctor declares you fit to travel, you must still submit the Medical Screening Form. Vikand's specialised maritime medical screening team will make the final determination about your fitness to travel, particularly considering unique Antarctic travel conditions.

Only licensed doctors, including osteopaths and physician’s assistants, can sign this section. Other medical professionals, like nurses or pharmacists, cannot sign.

Guest forms are automatically submitted online, requiring no manual upload. For the doctor's section, you have two options: online completion by your doctor or during a Vikand online appointment. If your doctor cannot complete the form online, please download the PDF after finishing your guest section and upload the signed document through the Vikand portal.

We prioritise online submissions for data protection and efficiency, as handwritten forms can cause screening delays. However, if online submission is not possible, please email the request to medical@travelhx.com or call our Guest Experience team.

An email with a link to the form will be sent 84 days before your voyage. The link is also available on our website here: Entry & Travel Requirements. Please note: If you are part of a group, your travel agency will share the links.

Yes, a valid passport is required. It must meet the validity requirements for the countries you'll visit, with at least 6 months remaining at the end of your cruise.

The Ship Manifest Information Form is required for immigration and customs and must be completed by all guests before departure. Please submit it no later than 8 weeks before your voyage.

You can find the link on our website under Entry & Travel Requirements, which can be found here: Entry & Travel Requirements.

You’ll receive your travel documents 30 days before departure, including details on embarkation times, pre-booked extras, and more.

You'll receive your final itinerary approximately one month before your voyage, provided your booking is fully paid, and you meet all travel requirements.
