glynneathgirl Posted December 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Have booked a 35 night cruise to Caribbean from Southampton and was wondering how many black tie nights there would be and are there any immigration forms to be filled in prior to sailing. Any info would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any info would be appreciated There are usually 10 black tie nights although this can change due to weather conditions. Immigration will depend on the countries you visit. I am assuming that as your title states Caribbean you are not going to the US? where you do need to go through US immigration. I don't ever remember filling in any forms when we have been on the 35 night cruises even when visiting central America, however things change.

solentsam Posted December 9, 2023 #7 Share Posted December 9, 2023 just turn up in the club house or where ever and show passports for your cabin not everyone needs to turn up just one person from each cabin with the passports from those in the cabin . that is it.

CCFC Posted December 9, 2023 #9 Share Posted December 9, 2023 If you are going to St Thomas or Puerto Rico you will need an ESTA as they have US customs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
