Yes. Even though we had a picture in our medallion profile they wanted s new one.

And what is the continent that encapsulates Canada and the USA. I’m pretty sure it’s called North America. Hence Americans only.

Welcome to Cruise Critic. Technically, the Green Line should be called "Americans and Canadians Only" line as Princess has recently started shipping up here to the Great White North

Strangely enough we were in green line in July on Sky, even though we are Brits sailing from Soughampton and picking up the medallion at the port.

However for next May we are stuck on the blue line despite having completed al the required data.

They have taken several of me over the last few years due changes in facial hair although my passport gets me in and out of airports with no issues

I believe that only update your photo is if your facial features have changed considerably since it was last taken.

No, just so up at the port you will be taken care of.

You’re right.,,got on board yesterday no QR code needed.  Green lane and medallion is all you need.  We walked  right on, biggest line/wait for us was the security area scanning bags.  Was very surprised at how crowded it was for those that either were in the blue lane or preferred to pick up their medallion at the port.  It was packed!  Reminded me of past years when we all stood in Disney type lines to get our cruise card.
