Before You Go
All travelers need a valid passport. Passports that are set to expire within six months after your date of travel are not considered valid.
Non-United States citizens also need visas. Be sure to check the Consulate of each country you will visit to ensure that your visa is valid. Non-U.S. citizens admitted for permanent residence must carry their Permanent Resident Card (Form I-551), also known as a Green Card.
Comfortable clothing, resort and casual evening attire, walking shoes, swimwear, sun protection, any necessary medications and a light sweater for cool evenings onboard. Don't forget your charger, reusable water bottle and anything that will help you during prayer time, such as a Bible, journal or devotional.
As your departure date approaches, you'll receive important travel communications with boarding instructions, required documentation reminders and other helpful details to prepare for your cruise. Please be sure the email address on your reservation remains current so you don't miss any updates.

Your cruise fare includes your stateroom accommodations, meals in the ship's main dining venues, many non-alcoholic beverages, access to ship amenities, and admission to Sailing Grace's Catholic programming.

Every guest will have access to our featured Catholic programming, including keynote presentations and liturgical celebrations. Some breakout sessions, workshops and smaller events may have limited seating and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. We encourage guests to enjoy the variety of experiences offered throughout the voyage while also taking time to relax and enjoy the ship.
Sailing Grace welcomes both married couples and single adults. Families may travel with children, but be aware that this cruise is designed primarily for adults, so dedicated children's programming will be limited. Parents are responsible for supervising their children throughout the cruise and ensuring they do not disrupt presentations, liturgies or other scheduled events.
