Would love to hear more about their lunch.

Thank you for your concern but I am not a he. At issue is an uncle who ******* which is a felony but never mind it is easier to think in cliches instead and ask. Half the group is concerned about what could happen (and none are on cruise critic so they asked me to see if anyone here has any first hand experience) The other half of the group think that previous visits to Canada were successful and thus this one should be the same.

And I thought I was the only one who washes up after getting my food and before I eat. Also I use the serving pieces with my right hand eat with my left.

Because i like to be prepared for as many contingencies as possible. i like to know what to expect and how to handle the issue.

I appreciate all the responses. I wanted to be prepared for the worse. Had no idea that the passports are sampled so that one successful entrance doesn't guarantee another entrance. I tried to bring this up with the group but was poo-pooed. He has been amazingly lucky in his travels. His felony conviction was supposed to keep him from entering Great Britain but he's been twice. I will come back after the cruise to update you all.

Wonderful idea but the group has decided no action is the best action. They don't want to call attention to his record.

Thanks for the support. Now I have another concern. The whole group of us are taking the train in Skagway into the Yukon. I found some other helpful posts in other groups. One person was not allowed to take the train ride, another one was pulled aside as they entered Canadian waters. Seems that entering Canadian waters with a felony conviction in itself is illegal. Regent won't/can't stop the boarding in Alaska (confused as to why). Rest of the group we are traveling with said not to worry because the person in question has driven a car into Canada within the last 2 years. I am the only one in our group who is concerned so I guess I should not borrow trouble.

Please anyone with real experience not just links on the internet. Cruise coming up in a couple of months. We will start in Alaska and end up in Canada. One of the group has a serious felony from 20 years ago. He has read the information available but "tested" it by driving into Canada last year. He was not turned away at the border. When does Canada check for this, before we board in Alaska? Or as we are getting into Canadian waters? I tried to talk some sense into the man but he isn't worried. I assume Regent won't help or refund if he is denied boarding. So anyone know anyone who was denied boarding for their records in the States. Yes I read Regent FAQ's on subject.
