How much luggage can I take on to my cruise?

If your cruise is a no-fly cruise, most cruise lines will allow you to take a good amount of luggage aboard provided it fits in your cabin and does not pose a safety risk. Please note that if on a fly cruise or using a transfer coach or train, you are subject to the baggage size, number and weight restrictions of the airline or transport company so please check this beforehand.

Azamara: maximum baggage weight is 90kgs

Carnival: 1 bag per person for cruises less than 5 days. 2 bags if the cruise is more than 6. Each bag must be no more than 50lbs and 40x60cm wide but no limit on height.

Celebrity: 90kg per cruiser (Galapagos ships are an exception)

Voyages of Discovery: 20kg per person

Royal Caribbean: 90kg per guest

Cunard: no limits on exact amount as long as it all fits in your room and is not a safety hazard. Each individual piece of luggage must weigh no more than 23kgs. 

Fred. Olsen: 90kg weight limit but items must weigh no more than 20kgs each for coach transfer handling.

P&O: No total restrictions but each piece must be less than 23kgs for handling. 

CMV: each item must weigh no more than 23kgs for handling but no total limit. If less than 23cms thick, your suitcase will easily slide under the bed.

Princess: there is no restriction in the amount of baggage but make sure each item is no more than 23kgs for handling.

Costa: If cruising 7 nights or less, you are permitted one large suitcase and hand luggage. For cruises between 8 and 14 nights, you are allowed two suitcases. For cruises with a duration greater than this, 3 suitcases are permitted.
