Expert Q&A
![]() | ||
| By Bonnie Ramirez Cruise Expert Marketing Director for PleazurCruises | ||
I'm vegetarian and concerned about my food selection on a cruise. Can they accommodate specific diet requests?
Yes, the ships can accommodate all specific diet requests as long as you let your agent know at least 30 days before your trip so that the cruise ship can prepare all the dietary needs for you and the hundreds of other passengers as well. Even if you didn't tell anyone until you were on the ship, they can still accommodate you, but I don't recommend you not telling anyone until you're on the ship. They need time to prepare everything for the people who are going on the cruise, so the earlier you tell them, the better."
