Question about carrying sea pass cards

[goatwife]

We are doing our first cruise this Saturday and I am wondering if all of the experienced cruisers have ideas for carrying sea pass cards. Also wondering if kids carry their own cards and how. Our boys are 8 & 10. Will they need the cards with them at all times? How do we prevent them from losing them?

Thanks for any ideas!

Kids carry their own, up to you if the "charge" function is turned on. Best thing we found is to put them on a lanyard for our kids. They sell these on board for 5-10 bucks or you can bring your own. I bought soft fabric ones at our local 5 Below (like the dollar store) and they had a clip at the bottom. Once we got our sea pass cards we went to the customer service desk and they punched a hole in the sea pass cards so we would just clip them right on. We saw others do this and they told us about the "punching" service. This worked for us, saw lots of folks with the lanyards that have little envelopes at the end to slide them in but I was afraid the cards might slip out.

I always carry mine on a lanyard around my neck. Then even when I don't want to wear it, it's easier to find amid my other cards and things inside my purse.

I usually wear boarding shorts during the day and they have at least one pocket I can put the card in. I even go in the pool with it in my pocket and it's always been fine.

I Am not sure about on Oasis, but on Freedom when we registered the kids for Adventure Ocean they were given lanyards for their sea pass cards.

My daughter got a lanyard when we signed her up for Adventure Ocean on the Monarch in October.

I saw lots of kids and adults with the lanyards for the sea pass card on the Oasis in March. In the past, we brought the coil wrist key chains and had the front desk hole punch the sea pass cards. We had many people ask us if they were for sale any where. I think I picked them up at the dollar store or Walmart. They were pretty handy. I even used one. I found it made it easier to find my sea pass card in my pool bag and if I needed to run back to the room quickly I could just slide it on my wrist.

DBF ruins his every year. He puts it in his pocket with his cell phone and the sensor or magnent or whatever stops working. He has to go wait in line for a new card. Hopefully he'll remember this year.

Oh I like this idea for myself!! I was also searching around my bag or purse for it. Thanks for the great idea :)

The kids on the oasis were given the lanyards when they sign up. you can also buy them in the shop for I think $4.50. We bought them for ourselves.
