Emergency Info (beyond ship, cabin, & name?)

[TylerRose]

I am compiling "emergency info" to share with the family (& office) we are leaving behind. Aside from our flights, Itinerary, a C&P of HALS emergency info:

What info do you leave behind?

What do you make sure you copy & bring? i.e. prescriptions, passports?

 

BTW, I am including HAL's C&P in case anyone else may be searching for this info.

They no longer seem to include individual ship phone numbers...

 

Hal's current C&P:

"At some point in your travels you may experience an emergency. With this in mind, the following emergency phone numbers are available for your use. Representatives are on hand to assist you in any way they can, including assistance with travel delays and contacting loved ones. During our regular business hours, please call: 800-426-0327.

Representatives are available from 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 7:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday (Pacific Time). Outside of these hours and during holidays, please call 888-361-8803, or 206-301-5293.*

*This number is for emergency use only; please do not call unless you are experiencing an emergency of a critical nature.

 

Additionally, you can call the ship directly from the shore. We recommend that you use this for the most critical emergencies only: Connecting to a Holland America Line vessel at sea is simple by using Ship Dial Service. A credit card is required for all inbound phone calls to a ship. The rate is $USD16.00 per minute and billing begins at the time specified.

Please have the ship's name, your party's name and stateroom number before you call.

Instructions:

1. Dial 1-800-993-5483 (US). From outside the U.S. access 1-321-837-6106.

2. Listen to the announcement.

3. Listen to the menu and select the number that corresponds to the ship you are calling.

4. If you receive a busy signal or message, please hang up quickly and try your call again.

Please print this page and give it to whomever you wish for dialing instructions.

 

TY for your patience. we depart in morning... & I still have so much to do I am worried I will forget something. :confused:

I also leave a copy of our passports with our emergency contact in case we need her to send it to us.

I print out and bring with me a copy of all pre booked shore ex and dining reservations. Also, several copies of passport photo page.

I leave a copy of my passport/ flight info at home.

 

Looking forward to meeting the both of you next Friday onboard.

Safe travels across the pond and enjoy your pre cruise time .

I email copies of passports and front and back of credit cards to myself, so if I need the information I can get it from my email. Have a great trip. I hope we sail together again in the future.
