Help and assistance from start to finish
You can book your Ponant cruise several months prior to departure. We'll also guide and assist you in the period up to your voyage. We'll be available at all times, in particular to pre-book your flights, your before and after cruise programmes or your excursions.
Booking
In the days following your booking, you'll receive an email that will enable you to complete your MY PONANT account with the required information for your stay with our company.
You will be notified when our pre- and post-cruise programmes go on sale and about flight booking options. You can then make your bookings through your advisor.
We will arrange the formalities for your departure and invite you to update your MY PONANT profile by, in particular, entering your passport number and checking its validity date.
You will be provided with details about the excursions available on your itinerary by email (does not apply to expedition cruises). As places on excursions are limited, we strongly recommend pre-booking with your advisor by email or telephone as early as possible.
Your travel documents will be sent to you:

An SMS will be sent to you 3 days prior to your boarding summarising useful information.
