Mein Schiff 2 — 7-Night Northern Europe & Baltic

Loading this sailing…

Before you sail

What the fare covers, what it doesn't, and how this itinerary actually runs.

2 sea days

The pool loungers and the shaded spots go early on a sea day — by eight in the morning on a full ship, and this one carries 2,894 guests. Reserving one and leaving it is against the rules on most lines and crew do clear them, so send someone early rather than at ten.

4 port days back to back

Early tenders and late returns, several days running, with no sea day to recover in. Pick the two ports you actually care about and let one of the others be a lie-in — the itinerary is not a checklist.

Day one and the last day are half-days

A 7-night cruise is really 6 full days. Boarding runs into the afternoon and you are off the ship early on the last morning.

The drinks package

TUI Cruises' fares are typically 'Premium All-Inclusive', meaning a broad range of drinks are already included, so there is not a separate main drinks package to purchase.

Break-even: There is no separate drinks package to break even on, as many standard drinks, including soft drinks, beers, wines, sparkling wines, and some cocktails and spirits, are covered by the base fare.

This model suits almost all travellers, as it allows for enjoying a wide variety of drinks without additional daily cost. Those who prefer very specific premium brands or high-end spirits might pay extra à la carte.

Gratuities: Gratuities for the crew are already included in your TUI Cruises fare. You do not need to budget for or adjust a separate daily service charge on board. Confirmation of this policy can be made when booking.
Wifi: Basic internet packages typically start around €15-20 per day or can be purchased for a full voyage. This usually supports messaging apps and email. Faster streaming or social media access usually requires a more expensive premium package.

Costs that surprise people

Speciality Restaurants. While many dining options are included, a few select speciality restaurants or pop-up dining experiences usually incur an additional cover charge or à la carte pricing.
Shore Excursions. Shore excursions booked through the cruise line are an additional cost. Prices vary greatly depending on the destination and activity.
Spa Treatments and Services. While the sauna and fitness areas are often included, individual spa treatments like massages, beauty services, and certain thermal suite access typically incur separate charges.
Premium Drinks. Though many drinks are included, premium spirits, specific wines, champagne, and minibar items are generally not covered by the 'Premium All-Inclusive' fare.
Laundry Services. Self-service laundry facilities are usually available for a fee per load. Professional laundry and pressing services also come at an additional cost.
Photography Services. Photos taken by the ship's photographers, whether posed portraits or candid shots, are available for purchase in print or digital format at the photo gallery.

Ways to spend less

Utilise Included Drinks. Since a wide array of drinks are included, stick to these options to avoid extra charges on premium beverages.
