Luggage Allowance

To help ensure your luggage is delivered to your cabin as quickly as possible, we kindly ask:

Each suitcase weighs no more than 20kg.

Your suitcases will need to be stored in your cabin during the voyage.
Up to three suitcases can be stored neatly under your bed when laid flat, so, where possible, we recommend bringing no more than three suitcases per cabin.

If you'd prefer to travel a little lighter, our trusted luggage partner, Baggex, can collect your luggage from your home, deliver it to the port, and return it to your home after your voyage.

Luggage sent with Baggex will be delivered to Borealis shortly after her arrival in Southampton, ensuring it is among the first to be delivered to cabins.

5% off when sending two suitcases.
