Are Emotional Support Animals Allowed On Cruise Ships

Please see our Service Animal section for more details about our service animal policies.

Are emotional support animals allowed on cruise ships. Yes we accept service animals on all our ships. Emotional support dogs which are not recognized by the US Department of Justice are also not permitted on Carnival ships. Guests must obtain clearance and documentation to sail with their assistance dog prior to the sailing date.

Airlines and cruise lines are also trying to halt the procession of an array of animals such as ducks pigs kangaroos and hedgehogs that passengers are using as emotional support animals. The only option to cruise with your dog on other cruise lines would be if it is a bona fide service animal. Because the cruise lines cannot verify that a supposed emotional support animal is a working animal they do not allow them onboard.

It might seem impossible but it isnt. Further you will be responsible for the care and feeding of your animal. Emotional support animal cruises dont exist but service dogs can travel on cruises.
