Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth 2
*Restrictions Apply

There is one cruise line that will allow pets. However, we found a number of charter outfits and small sightseeing companies that welcome well-behaved, sea loving pets. There are many reasons cruise lines cannot accept pets. Most of the countries the cruise ships visit have quarantine or entry requirements for pets. Cruise ships have health codes to follow and they have poor accommodations for pets. The cruise line accepting pets is Cunard’s Queen Elizabeth 2; however, they accept them on a limited basis. Before you decide to cruise with your pet, you want to read the fine print.
1) The kennel is located mid-ship on the Sun Deck.

2) There are 12 kennels (two levels of six). Kennels can be used for cats, dogs and other small animals. It is not normal procedure to put more than one animal in a kennel, but it would be the responsibility of the owner if they insisted.

3) Food is provided and the kennel attendant can prepare any special requirements.

4) The shielded open deck area, fitted with a lamppost and fire hydrant, is available to exercise pets. Animals are not permitted on any other open deck, public area or stateroom.

5) Prior to sailing, necessary documentation must be presented to the ship before pets can travel.

6) Passengers may provide their own bed or bedding for their pets.

7) Pets are kept in the kennel during the crossing and regularly exercised.

8) Visiting hours: The kennel’s visiting hours is as follows, however with prior arrangements it is possible for the attendant to be in the kennels outside of these hours to open the cage: 7:30 a.m. to 9:30 a.m., 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., and 3:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.

This is the official word from the cruise line: “The Queen Elizabeth 2 will continue to accept pets in the kennel aboard for any transatlantic crossing it may have with the exception of the first or last leg of the world cruise.”

i'd rather leave him in a puppy hotel or with my sister!
