jeanlyon Posted August 14, 2021 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2021 didn't know about this. Obviously new? Again, what about people who don't do online checkin or book with a TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So just take a selfie with a plain background and use that. I just scanned a spare copy of my passport photo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindyloo22 Posted August 14, 2021 Author #4 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Not sure how to get photo from phone onto pc. I might just take photo with iPad and do it that way. At check in is it like sending a attachment. Lin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use a USB cable as well but then you have to fiddle around with permissions on the phone. the PC then just considers the phone as an external drive.

Or you can access the P&O site on your phone and the photo will there in your files ready to use in the booking in procedure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swimming with spaniels Posted August 28, 2021 #8 Share Posted August 28, 2021 i air dropped the photo files from my phone to my computer - then drag and dropped them to upload. I did this too for an earlier cruise i did on the MSCVirtuosa and they still took photos when we boarded, I had just had my covid swab taken about 30 seconds before and my eye was swollen up! So much for taking a nice photo beforehand 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lin I took a selfie and saved it to one drive, which I have on my phone and PC. On the P&O check in page click up load picture. At Southampton they just took a picture of my passport page. They used DW's uploaded photo. They said my one looked too wrinkly.,🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelMadBrits Posted August 28, 2021 #10 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Hi. If your laptop has a camera, the online check in lets you take the photo and uploads it automatically. There are two options on the check in ~ download file or take photo. I tried it and I found it so much easier than trying to add a photo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Upload to photos If you have a google account. Your photos might automatically upload to google photos anyway. Log into your google account, then download the picture you want. It should then open in your browsers default photos. From there, save the file to your computer and you can then choose the file and upload it when you are completing the boarding pass form. Hope that helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
