Skipper and Hostesses
Skipper is mandatory on your reservation, for your extra comfort and safety. The price is shown in the check-out bookings area.
Hostess extra does not include food. You should do a briefing with your hostess before boarding and agree on the menus and products that they need to cook for you. If you don’t hire a Hostess the shopping must be made by your crew, if you hire a Hostess he/she can take care of that for you.
