Do yourself a favor and don't line up. I've seen people down there at 5:30 AM for a 7:15 departure. We now wait till about 15 minutes after they start the process and head down (in usually an empty elevator) and walk right out and off and are through customs in 10 minutes. Why wait stand in line for 2 hours - ridiculous.

I have pictures on our phones on our passports, driver's licenses, insurance cards, etc. on our phones. We had to use the pictures as identification a couple of times in the past with no problem. Passengers seem to always have their phones with them these days.

I was wondering the same thing about when they will post summer 2025 Wonder sailings.

Great points everyone. I guess I'll just go with the flow and grin a bear it.

With RCCL looking to have a great year financially one would think that don't need to charge $3.50 for a very small half full box of popcorn. Really??

Good one! Diamond Plus though.

I see a lot of people complaining about an increase in gratuities so I went back and looked. In May of 2019 on Symphony, I paid $29/day for both of us. In January 2024 on Symphony, I will be paying $36.50/day for both of us. I can live with that -- compared to the price of gas, eggs, airfares, etc. And we are glad to see the great hardworking staff who make our lives and vacations wonderful get more money. (FYI - we also give a lot of cash out to the waiters, bartenders, room stewards too.)

Just on the Quantum with 9 of us and NO ONE was refused 2,3,4 appetizers at the same time. Also on the Wonder in January and also no refusals on extra appetizers.

Just got passport renewals (non-expedited) - took 15 weeks for 2 kids ages 16 & 14.

2nd week in March - for 2 young adults and 2 minors

15 weeks and still no passports.

Thanks for the clarification.

All persons traveling between the United States and Bermuda are required to present a passport to enter Bermuda or re-enter the United States.

Update: Still no passports. Cruise is a month away, so we have contacted our congressman for help. They are working on expediting. Fingers crossed!
