spyro1952 Posted June 2, 2019 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2019 My Mom passed away last week with my Dad passing away 20 yrs ago. They were avid Princess cruisers as I am. My Mom always said she wanted their ashes released at sea from a cruise ship. Does anyone know if Princess would do a brief service like this for me? I am the only family they had.

julia Posted June 2, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2019 My condolences to you, and yes, a burial at sea can be arranged by calling the cruiseline directly. They will give you instructions and make the arrangements. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Gizmo Posted June 5, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 5, 2019 You may want to check and see if there are any restrictions on bringing the ashes through custom in any countries you may travel. Sorry for your loss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lois1112 Posted June 5, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 5, 2019 when my mother passed away, she loved cruising, my sister and I arranged to have a wreath that we could toss in her memory. Princess did a wonderful job, they provided a wreath (that was environmentally friendly and pre approved) and gave us the time we needed to say goodbye. This is still a very special memory for us 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare PurpleHays Posted June 5, 2019 #10 Share Posted June 5, 2019 We were given time on a sea day on the very back of the ship. They closed off both sides to allow us privacy. The only requirement we were told was that the ashes had to be in a biodegradable container. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
