VERY IMPORTANT:
Passengers with children should upon coming onboard ensure that life
jackets are available for the children. Ask your steward or your

well as in an emergency, all passengers should gather at life-boat
stations as announced in the dormitories — and under no circumstances
at the lifeboats. Inform yourself in advance about the location
applicable to you.
