Found a Cruise Duck?
Found a duck aboard? Read its tag, record the find, then decide whether to keep it or hide it again.

The tag may contain a public reference, QR link, sailing information and the hider’s request. Use only the stated public link; do not post personal contact details printed on an older tag.
Record the moment
Note the ship, sailing date and a general passenger-area location. Cruise Life does not need a cabin number. A photograph is optional and should exclude other guests unless they have agreed to appear.
Keep it or continue the journey
If the tag says “keep or hide”, either choice is valid. If re-hiding, check the current ship guidance and choose a safe public place. If the duck looks unsafe, damaged or untagged, hand it to guest services.
