Travel Documents
Dont let paperwork get in the way of a great vacation...
Passports A valid passport book is required for international travel and for entering the United States by air. A valid passport book or other WHTI compliant document is required for domestic cruise travel in some circumstances (see below). We strongly recommend that all guests travel with a valid passport book, even when not required. For additional passport information visit: www.travel.state.gov/ Caution: The requirements described below are government regulations and policies. They are subject to change without notice. It is the sole responsibility of the guest to identify and obtain all required travel documents and have them available when necessary. These appropriate valid travel documents, such as passport, visas, inoculation certificate and family legal documents, are required for boarding and reentry into the United States and other countries. For your protection, we recommend that your passport book expiration date not occur within six (6) months following the voyage termination date. Please note: The name on your cruise line or air line reservation (if applicable) must match the name on your valid passport book or other identification documents (see below). Guests who do not possess the proper documentation may be prevented from boarding their flight or ship or from entering a country and may be subject to fines. No refunds will be given to individuals who fail to bring the proper documentation. Domestic Travel The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) requires that all travelers entering and departing the United States, Canada, Mexico, the Caribbean and Bermuda must present a valid passport book or other Department of Homeland Security-approved travel document that establishes the bearers identity and citizenship. Open-loop cruises (voyages that begin in one U.S. port and end in another U.S. port) will require a valid passport book or another WHTI-compliant document for entry or reentry into the United States. Closedloop cruises (voyages that begin and end in the same U.S. port) allow U.S. citizens to travel with additional travel documents such as a birth certificate plus a government issued picture ID card (i.e., a drivers license). The name on your travel documents needs to match the name on the cruise line reservation or be linked by other legal documents such as a marriage certificate. A birth certificate, issued by a government agency (state, county, city, etc.), is an accepted travel document. A birth notice, issued by a hospital or other or other type of medical facility, is not an acceptable travel document. The name on your travel documents must match the name on your cruise reservation or be linked by a legal document such as a marriage license. For more information regarding domestic travel document requirements, visit: www.getyouhome.gov/.
