Anti-social behaviour towards other guests, staff or CPBS property will not be tolerated onboard any of our vessels. Should this occur the Captain may decide to call the local authorities and/or remove the persons(s) responsible from the vessel at the nearest available pier and in this instance the Captain's decision will be final.
So called ‘legal highs’ are not permitted on any of our vessels and anyone found in possession will have them confiscated and destroyed, and may be asked to leave the vessel and in this situation no refunds will be given.
