The family-friendliness of TUI Cruises is also evident in the shipping company’s great value for money, allowing children to travel free of charge.
Children up to and including the age of 14 travel for free with TUI Cruises as 3rd, 4th or 5th person in the cabin. This applies to accommodation in an additional bed such as a sofa bed or a Pullmann bed in the cabin of the parents or guardians.
If the child is accommodated in the 1st or 2nd bed in the cabin, the advertised percentage discount is deducted from the double occupancy price from / to the port.

Of course you can also book a special family veranda cabin. Here, the sleeping areas for parents and children are separated by a screen.
