mz-s Posted October 2, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 2, 2022 https://www.carnival.com/help?topicid=3409 You will not be able to board and you will not get a refund most likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nwcruiselover Posted October 2, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) I’m sorry this happened to you. As mentioned by mz-s, you won’t be able to sail without your original driver’s license. A very clear picture of it won’t suffice. You’re unlikely to get a refund except taxes/port charges, and any other prepaid items like prepaid tips, shore excursions, cheers, etc. Edited October 2, 2022 by nwcruiselover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homosassa Posted October 2, 2022 #6 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Do you have any valid unexpired government issue photo ID? It doesn't have to be a driver's license. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dwright826 Posted October 2, 2022 Author #7 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I do not have my old expired because they made me turn it in when I got my new one😭 And I actually am in 29 palms! I'm not military though. Update though. Just got off the phone with carnival and they said that a temporary Id from the dmv will be excepted as long as it has a picture on it. Does anyone have any experience with this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dwright826 Posted October 2, 2022 Author #9 Share Posted October 2, 2022 So the story is, I don't have my ID as of yesterday, and we sail tomorrow. I just got off the phone with carnival, and they said that a temporary driver's license is acceptable as long as it has a picture on it. Does anybody have any experience with sailing with the temporary id? I'm just a little reluctant because carnival customer service has been known to not know what they're talking about.

spleenstomper Posted October 2, 2022 #10 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Does your state have a virtual DL? Like Louisiana has La Wallet which has your DL on it and it’s a legal ID Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone have any experience with this? I Googled that earlier and I don't think the temporary license issued by CA has a picture.

I don't really see anything on the DMV website about it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare ledges1 Posted October 2, 2022 #18 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Do you have a police report identifying the items stolen including your driver's license. If you do, I would call Carnival today and see if they have any suggestions. Hopefully you can get a new license on Monday. Good luck! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spleenstomper Posted October 2, 2022 #22 Share Posted October 2, 2022 I happen to be in NorCal at my sister’s house and my BIL told me you all don’t have a DL app yet. That is a shame because it’s fantastic, especially for things like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
