lions1995 Posted December 28, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 28, 2015 I bought FTTF for my cabin. My 15 year old nephew is in our cabin, but his parents did not buy FTTF. Does he need to stay with his family for check in or is there a way for him to check in with my family? Just asking since he is a minor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATL_Miami_Cruiser Posted December 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted December 28, 2015 (edited) As long as you have all his travel documentation (passport or birth certificate) you shouldn't have a problem with him checking in with you. Carnival does require a notarized permission notice for minors who aren't with their parents/guardian, but they normally don't ask for it during check in. It's when you return to port do the Customs enforcement people sometimes ask for the paperwork, but this wouldn't apply to you since the minor's parents are traveling with you. If he's part of your cabin then he's FTTF as well. Edited December 28, 2015 by ATL_Miami_Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We both had our phones on in case there was an issue and I was prepared to have to step aside and wait. 1 lady gave us a raised eyebrow, but still let us on. The only thing you need to remember is his boarding pass and Passport. Edited December 28, 2015 by Lerin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bought FTTF for your stateroom, it is good for everyone in your stateroom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
