Frequently Asked Questions

Is there Wi-Fi on board and is the signal sufficient for remote working?

Although Azura Cruise is equipped with a Wi-Fi system in public areas such as the Lobby and Restaurant, due to the unique terrain of Lan Ha Bay with many high limestone islands, the network signal may be unstable when the ship moves into core areas or caves. If you have urgent work, it is best to handle it before the ship leaves or take advantage of the time the ship is docked at the overnight destination.

Am I susceptible to seasickness on the Azura cruise ship?

Azura Cruise is a new generation yacht with a steel hull design meeting VR-SB standards and large size ($80 - $100 m), helping to increase stability and significantly reduce vibration compared to traditional wooden hull ships. Modern balancing technology helps the ship operate smoothly, so even guests who are sensitive to water waves can enjoy their vacation with peace of mind and rarely feel uncomfortable.

How should I prepare my clothes for the trip?

Day activities: Swimwear for using the infinity pool or kayaking; Active clothing, sneakers/flat shoes for cycling in Viet Hai village or climbing caves.

Dinner: Azura Restaurant encourages smart casual attire to match the luxurious atmosphere of the Set Menu dinner.

Winter: Lan Ha Bay can be quite cold and foggy in the early morning/night, you should bring a windbreaker or light sweater.

Can I bring alcohol or personal drinks on board?

You can bring your own drinks, however the cruise will apply service charges (Corkage fee) depending on the type of alcohol or drink. This fee includes chilling service, glass preparation and table service. You should consult in advance with the reservation staff to know the specific fee for each type.

Does the cruise ship have assistive devices for elderly guests or guests with disabilities?

With a 4-storey design and spacious corridor system, Azura supports movement quite well. However, due to the characteristics of ships still having high door steps to prevent water overflow and stairs between floors, elderly guests should prioritize booking room categories on the first floor (Baylight Suite) for convenient transportation to the transfer boat pick-up area. Activities such as kayaking can be replaced by sitting on a bamboo boat to ensure safety and health.

If I have a food allergy or a special diet (gluten-free, Muslim...), what should I do?

Azura has a separate Vegetarian menu and the culinary team can adjust dishes according to medical requirements. However, to ensure the ingredients are prepared most carefully, please notify the reservation department in detail about your allergies or dietary requirements at least 24 hours before departure.

What is the power source on board and do I need to bring an adapter?

The electrical system on Azura Cruise uses standard voltage $220\text{V}$. Cabin outlets are usually universal outlets that fit most common 2-prong or 3-prong plugs. If you use specific devices from abroad (like the US or Japan), you will need to bring a voltage converter.

Can I smoke on the train?

To ensure fire safety and preserve a pure space for all guests, smoking (including e-cigarettes) is completely prohibited in cabins and restaurants. You can only smoke in the designated outdoor area on the Sundeck or Sky Bar, which is equipped with ashtrays and is well-ventilated.
