TYPICAL ITINERARY
Begin your fantastic 5-night Amsterdam To Copenhagen Cruise from Amsterdam, Holland onboard Brilliance Of The Seas. Relax and enjoy your leisurely days on the sea as you cruise to:
Zeebrugge (Brussels), Belgium
Zeebrugge is a port in northwestern Belgium, 10 miles north of Brugge and 60 miles from Brussels. Interestingly, it is actually an "artificial port," built because the existing marine channel to Brugge at the time had become clogged with silt. Because of its strategic location, Belgium has often been targeted by opposing military forces, which has contributed to Zeebrugge's rich history. In 1918, during World War I, British naval forces sank block ships in Zeebrugge's harbor to block the entry of German submarines. In 1944, the entire port was destroyed by the retreating Germans.
Le Havre (Paris), France
Paris, the capital city of France, is a beautiful, artistic city, situated in the north-central part of France. The city lies on both banks of the River Seine. The north bank was historically the area where Royalty and the wealthy merchant-class lived, and today it is the government and commercial district. While the south bank, with its image of an intellectual and bohemian playground, is the site where the university was founded.
Kristiansand, Norway
Kristiansand is a city, municipality and the county capital of Vest-Agder county in Southern Norway. Kristiansand municipality is the 6th largest in Norway.

Windjammer Cafe: The Windjammer Café is the perfect place to grab a bite to eat before hitting the pool or enjoy a casual dinner to top off a day of adventure. Open almost around the clock, it offers great food, spectacular views and an attentive wait staff, all in a casual atmosphere.
Choose from a wide variety of food and a seemingly never-ending buffet for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks throughout the day. Serving stations offer salads, soups, sandwiches and burgers, meat-carving and hot entrées. And for your sweet tooth, choose from a multitude of cookies, cakes and frozen yogurt.
Latte-tudes: If you need your caffeine fix to start the day or just want to take a coffee break, head to Latté-tudes - the onboard coffee bar. It's the perfect place to sit down with a frothy latte and a good book, or maybe an after-dinner cappuccino with friends.
Seaview Cafe: Dine outdoors at the one of the most popular venues while enjoying beautiful scenery and fresh ocean air. The Seaview Café has a fun atmosphere and is a great place to grab a light lunch or a late-night snack. The menu offers everyone's favorite bar food, classic deli sandwiches, desserts and a wide selection of beer and wine.
Room Service: Maybe you want to sleep in or just spend a night relaxing in your stateroom; either way, you still have to eat. That's why Royal Caribbean offers room service to all guests for breakfast, lunch and dinner, 24 hours a day (late night service charge applies). So go ahead and have breakfast in bed or enjoy a sweet temptation dessert on your balcony. After all, you're on vacation.
Beverage Packages: Drink packages are an economical and convenient way to purchase select drinks at the bars and restaurants. Kids can enjoy unlimited soda, and for adults, there's a soda package and a wine and dine package that includes a bottle of wine each evening at dinner.
Gold Anchor Service: What is Gold Anchor Service? It's how Royal Caribbean makes your cruise adventure even more memorable. One thing that keeps guests coming back again and again is the friendly and personal service. Maybe it's a server who remembers the name of your daughter's teddy bear. Or the bartender who remembers the extra olive. Or perhaps the housekeeper who reminds you of your dinner reservation time. The unique style of service will enhance every aspect of your cruise. No matter where you are - the pool, the dining room, the spa or your room - get ready to be wowed! And Royal Caribbean delivers it 24 hours a day. This is way beyond normal service. This is Gold Anchor Service.

Are there any adults only activities onboard?
For the comfort of our guests, some areas and activities have been designated as adults only. These areas may vary from ship to ship. Once onboard please consult your cruise compass for details specific to your ship.
Can I change my stateroom?
Guests desiring to transfer to higher-priced accommodations, which may be available during boarding or after sailing, may do so by paying, in cash, with traveler’s checks or by credit card, the difference in published full cruise vacation prices. Please visit the Guest Relations desk for additional details.
Before you depart home
Don’t forget to pack your passport, other cruise documents, valuables and medications in your carry-on bag. If you are travelling with children, don’t forget to pack their documents etc. as well. You’ll need your passport and cruise documents to board the ship.
Gathering documents
Make sure you have the proper forms of identification needed for your particular trip. Give yourself plenty of time to obtain or renew your passport, if necessary.
Also, to speed up the boarding process, make sure to fill out your cruise documents (which will come with your ticket) before you leave home.
How do I pay for onboard purchases?
For your convenience, our ships use a “cashless” system – SeaPassSM. This system allows you to charge all onboard purchases by presenting the card that is issued to you upon boarding. SeaPassSM is used for all expenditures except for those few that require cash: gratuities (other than bar and wine service), foreign currency exchange and casino gambling. On the last evening of your cruise vacation, an itemised statement will be delivered to your stateroom for verification. If all the charges are correct you do not need to do anything further and yourSeaPassSM charges will be billed automatically to your Visa,® MasterCard,® American Express,® or Diners Club International® card. If any charges or refunds are incorrectly recorded, you must resolve these with the pursers office prior to disembarkation. It is extremely difficult to try and resolve statement errors once you have disembarked. Subject to prior approval with the purser’s office you may also settle your account with US dollar traveller’s cheques or a US dollar cash payment.
Please note: All onboard charges are in US dollars and will be billed in US dollars to your credit card then converted into your local currency.
What about dining?
When you make your cruise reservation, tell us whether you’d like to have dinner our main seating session (at approximately 6:15 p.m.) or during our second seating (at approximately 8:30 p.m.). Your seating time will be noted on your cruise ticket, and your SeaPassSM card will indicate your preassigned table number. If your preferred dining time is not available, you can be put on a wait list through a travel agent. Dining will be cleared closer to the sailing date based on availability.
Please note: Seating times may vary by ship and itinerary by approximately 30 minutes. We recommend that you reserve main seating if you’re travelling with children. Ask your waiter about our special Kids’ Menu. For your convenience, complimentary 24-hour Room Service is also available – in addition to breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack service and occasional midnight buffets.
Can I call room service?

Have your travel agent check if this applies to your booking.
Can I call home from the ship?
