Passports and Documents
Your ticket packet information will give specific instructions regarding the forms of identification or other travel documents for their trip. Most cruise lines require at least a state-issued picture identification, even if they remain in the U.S. cruise territorial waters.
If your itinerary includes cruise ports abroad, carry a passport or a birth certificate with raised seal and a government issued ID such as a driver’s license.
What’s Free and What Costs Money?
The price of your ticket will include your cabin, onboard entertainment and food. Other issues to consider in the budget for your trip are:
* Taxes, surcharges and fees, including airport taxes, handling fees, departure tax and port charges. You should check the fees and port taxes are included in the cruise rate.
* Alcoholic beverages, bottled water and soft drinks occasionally. Some ships offer "soda packages" that offer unlimited drinks during the cruise for about $ 15 – $ 20.
* Cost to reach the ship, plane tickets not booked as part of the package, or transport service in the parking charges at the port, if not included.
* Cost of stay in port before or after the cruise, such as hotels, transportation and meals.
* Shopping purchases made inside and outside the vessel.
* On board extras, such as gambling, spa, massage and ship grounding calls.
* Tips.
Most cruise lines use a billing system for your convenience. That will mark a credit card and create a tab for the cruise, the presentation of the total bill at the end. Keep all receipts for the small sign to check the record of the total.

Learn the language of the ship – His boat is a boat and never a boat, and the ship is always that one or her. The left is port, right is starboard. Media stern or rear of the stern, the bow is the front of the ship. The bridge is where the captain and his team control of the ship, and only some ships have open bridge policies.
