Life Jackets Save Lives
Approximately 500 people drown each year from recreational boating accidents, so we've teamed up with NOAA and the National Safe Boating Council to remind you to "Wear It!" when you are on the water. Here are some links for you to learn additional information about boating safety.

Safety is a primary concern in the cruise industry. One of the first things you'll do once you are onboard the ship is a mandatory safety drill which includes locating your life jackets and proceeding to a muster station for further instructions.
When you put your life jacket back away in your stateroom, that doesn't mean you forget about safety for the rest of the cruise. Instead, that is the start of paying attention to safety. You may participate in some shore excursions that include water sports, sailing on small boats, etc. Be sure to wear your life jacket during these excursions.
We thought it would be fun to post some of your pictures in life jacket attire, so we've started a Safe Boating Photo Album that you can add your pics to. Even if you don't send us one of your pics, check out the photos that are posted.
