That is very helpful. Thank you. Just wanted to be prepared in case something happens. I wonder if anyone on here has had to go through it or knows a time frame?

Then here is my question. You're in Jamaica and the ship is gone. What do you do now?

Ok. I do understand that is what it says. Are you saying that if someone had a passport card, driver license, maybe even a copy of there birth cert and they were sick on a island somewhere, there is absolutely no way for them to get back into the us unless they rent a boat and float back in. I don't believe it.

Ok, so if that is the case and you could not get on the plane. What would you do then. I ask because I have family members who are on a cruise leaving today and they all have cards. I want to be able to give them answers if need be.

Everyone says that you can't fly back with a passport card. All the times I have traveled with my passport book they only check it when I actually get back to the US. Here is my question. Would they not allow you to get on the plane to the US or When you got here would customs say , no go back, or would you just have to deal with more stuff while they verify who you are when you got back to the US. I know everyone says you can't fly, I just want to see if someone has gone through it or knows the process if I "HAD" to fly back from a cruise?
