Medical Facilities, Infants and Pregnancy Policy
Each of our ships are equipped with limited medical facilities that are staffed by a physician who is an independent contractor. If you become ill during the voyage and the physician is unable to care for your needs on board, you will be transferred to medical facilities on shore. If your condition will require that you have special medical apparatus or assistance on board, we must be made aware of that at time of booking in order to determine whether we can accommodate your needs. If you are using prescription drugs, please bring an adequate supply with you (together with a copy of the prescription signed by a doctor) and keep them in your carry-on luggage. Due to the limited medical facilities on the ships, we will not accept reservations for infants 24 months or younger or for women who will be 27 or more weeks pregnant as of the time their travel with Windstar concludes.

Children
Children, especially infants and toddlers, are not encouraged aboard Windstar cruises. The intimate ship size and unregimented atmosphere are adult in orientation and do not provide for the care, supervision, or entertainment of children. Children occupying staterooms as the third person are charged the applicable "third person" rate, which is available on request. Windstar will not accept reservations for infants who will be 24 months or younger as of the time their travel with Windstar concludes. Guests under 18 must be accompanied by a Parent or Legal Guardian over the age of 21.

Guests With Disabilities
Windstar does not discriminate against persons on the basis of disability. We seek, to the extent feasible, to accommodate the needs of persons with disabilities. There are no elevators on the Wind Star and Wind Spirit nor were the ships originally constructed to be wheelchair accessible. As a result, these three ships may be unsuitable for people requiring wheelchairs. The Wind Surf is equipped with elevators, but staterooms are not wheelchair accessible. Also note, there is no elevator access to board the ship. Service animals are permitted on board ships if prior arrangements have been made at time of booking. In limited situations where an individual with a disability would be unable to satisfy certain specified safety and other criteria, even when provided with appropriate auxiliary aids and services, we may find it necessary to ask the individual to make alternative travel arrangements. It is essential that Windstar is notified of any special medical, physical or other requirements you may have at the time of booking.
