Documents & practicalities

On most round-trips that start and end at the same US port (closed-loop), US citizens can sail on a birth certificate plus government photo ID, but a passport is strongly recommended and is required for any cruise that starts or ends abroad, and for flying home if you miss the ship. Confirm requirements for your exact itinerary and nationality before you book.
