Can my travel partner use my HIA excursion credit?

Just got off a HAL cruise last week. Took 2 ship excursions. No one looked at my keys. Not only did I have paper (placed in my room), but it was on the app. Regardless, they only took my room number and name.

 

I've taken maybe a dozen cruises since the restart, and again, no one has ever asked for my key.

In Mexico she insisted that I give her my room key even though I had my app open and ready to scan my e ticket.  It was super annoying.

That's crazy. I'd be really pissed about that.

You bet I was and said the same.  She completely ignored me.  I don’t recall that happening since.

Wonder if that's a Japan thing...I've never had any tour provider scan my room key ever. Even ship tours. And that is for all cruise lines.

Post-Covid since the restart on HAL, we've had both phone and keycards scanned. Didn't seem to be unique to ship (Koningsdam, Nieuw Amsterdam, Nieuw Statendam, Eurodam) or location (Mexican Riviera, Bahamas, Canada, Alaska).

Didn't matter if we met on ship in theater or portside - some scanned phone, some scanned card - all scanned something. We never requested paper tickets, so no recent experience with those.

Some involved stickers, some bracelets, some nothing - after getting scanned.
