Entertainment
Long distance travel provides the luxury of time where you can sit back, take in the incredible scenery from your window and enjoy time for yourself.
We recommend for your journey to bring along the books you’ve been meaning to read, some card games, puzzle or colouring-in books or download some playlists, podcasts or your favourite streaming videos for you and the kids to enjoy while travelling.
We have some colouring sheets available free on board for you or the family – ask the onboard team if you would like some of these. There is also a small number of pencil cases available to borrow, but due to demand, it’s best to bring your own items. You can also download the colouring sheets at home when preparing for your trip.
