Past minute cruiser, does not have pasport

[MickeyB426]

Hi...I'm in a position to invite someone along on our cruise on February 15, but this person (Adult, US citizen) does not have a passport.

 

We are doing the Western Caribbean in the Independence out of FTL (Costa Maya, Cozumel, Belize).

 

Are passports required for travel to these places? I see on the RCI website that a birth certificate and a government-issued ID (Driver's License) are what's required. I'm wondering if this is still the case.

 

(Yes, I'm aware that a passport is the normal way to go and highly recommended, but this is a last minute situation)

 

Thanks!

I believe that you're ok until June 2009 to travel with a birth cert. and drivers license. There was a huge influx of passport applications so they extended the date. I suggest you call RCCL to confirm since you will need to add a name to the existing reservation anyway.

Know that you need an official birth certificate with the state seal, not a copy or a hospital certificate.
