Women who will be 24 weeks or more at the time of embarkation for health and safety reasons are not allowed to sail.

YES! Your reservation is NOT protected!
ALL DEPOSITS AND PAYMENTS ARE UNDER FULL PENALTY - PROTECT YOUR TRAVEL INVESTMENT!
Due to the nature of this event, all deposits and payments for ON THE BLUE CRUISE are NON-REFUNDABLE AND NON-TRANSFERABLE. Therefore, we highly recommend TRAVEL INSURANCE.
Travel Insurance is NOT included in your reservation. The purchase of insurance is the sole responsibility of each guest sailing and is NOT offered through OTB. It is up to each guest to research and decide on a 3rd party vendor of his or her choice for insurance if they choose to do so. OTB is not responsible for any losses, medical expenses accrued during travel and/or any and all deposits, due to lack of travel insurance. Not all travel insurance is the same, and you should carefully investigate to determine what situations are covered, and how they are covered, in each policy you may be offered. For maximum coverage, we recommend that you consider third party policies with “Cancel for Any Reason” coverage. Please note that some policies must be purchased within 14 days of the initial deposit.
ALL passengers are required to be on board NO LATER than 2:30 pm as we will sail at 4:00 pm.
NO EXCEPTIONS will be made for passengers that arrive after 2:30 pm.
For those of you that love crowds, enjoy standing in the hot Boston sun and humidity, prefer to be annoyed by the person behind you that continues to fling his sweat onto you and step on the back of your sandal, arrive at The Black Falcon Terminal early on August 22nd, so you are nice and annoyed by the time you are actually scheduled to check-in.
For those that would prefer to get to the pier, check in relatively quickly in an air-conditioned building, and then quickly proceed onto the ship for a cocktail, please arrive at your designated check-in time you will receive during your check-in process.
ALL passengers are required to be on board NO LATER than 2:30 pm as we will sail at 4:00 pm. NO EXCEPTIONS will be made for passengers that arrive after 2:30 pm.
The ship returns to Boston on Friday, August 29th, 22 at 7:00 am. Disembarkation will continue until all passengers have cleared customs and debarked.
However, if you are departing on the same day your cruise arrives, we suggest that you schedule your departure flights no earlier than 12:00 pm.
You will need to print and bring your E-Docs (an electronic version of your boarding pass). These will be available online around 21 days before sailing as well as Proof of Citizenship, usually a passport as it is easiest and the best means for traveling international on a cruise.
CLICK HERE for a complete list of the other types of travel documentation that is and is NOT acceptable for cruise travel.
Please keep in mind that the first AND last name on your cruise E-Docs and your Passport or Government Issued Photo Identification MUST be an identical match. Therefore, for those not traveling with a PASSPORT, in the event of a marriage, divorce, etc. additional documents may be needed (ie: marriage certificate).
August temperatures in New England/Canada range from an average low of 65-degrees to an average high of 81-degrees. It is suggested that you pack lightweight, “resort casual” clothing — a few swimsuits, flip-flops, sandals or deck shoes for around the pool area, sneakers, walking shoes or hiking boots for shore trips, etc. If you like to exercise or participate in sports, bring any fitness clothing and footwear you may need.
Some of the shows and activities will be taking place outdoors, and there is always the chance of it being windy, cool, or even a little wet. Therefore, we suggest also packing some warmer clothing and light rain gear just to be on the safe side. Also be sure to bring your cameras, batteries and chargers, and enough film or memory cards to capture the entire event. And don’t forget ear plugs for the young ones (or yourself), sunscreen and lip balm.
For most evenings, resort casual is appropriate. However, t-shirts, shorts, and/or bare feet are not permitted in the formal dining rooms after 6:00 pm. Should we have a formal night, cocktail dresses for women and suits or jacket and ties for men are typically appropriate. We’ll let you know more about all the theme days/nights as we get closer to sailing.
We recommend that you hand-carry all your travel documents (passports, birth certificates, airline tickets, etc.) medications, jewelry, and any personal items that you may need in a separate carry-on bag. You should NOT put these items into checked luggage as they could become lost and prevent you from boarding the ship. Also, your luggage may take a few hours before it is delivered to your cabin.
On the last evening of your cruise your luggage will be collected for disembarkation the following morning. You may want to pack a separate overnight bag to accommodate your last evenings’ clothes and toiletries to carry off the ship with you.
No illegal substances, no alcohol or non-alcoholic beverages, food, weapons, or pets. The use of illegal drugs is strictly prohibited onboard On the Blue Cruise and Norwegian Cruise Line. All US and International laws pertaining to drug use should be respected and will be strictly enforced. Please refer to our Shipboard Etiquette Policy.
Each guest is permitted to carry a reasonable amount of personal property (including luggage) aboard the vessel; however, for your comfort and convenience, it is recommended that you limit the number of pieces you take. Keep in mind that airlines may charge for excess or oversize luggage. Charges incurred for excess or oversize baggage are the sole responsibility of the passenger. Each airline has a different limit on the amount of luggage they allow. Check with your air carrier for specific restrictions, such as allowance of weight and any additional charges.
Bring an overnight bag for your last night at sea. Staff will collect your bags the night before you leave the ship, and you will need an overnight bag to carry your night clothes and toiletries.
