Passport Requirements
Passports are recommended for your cruise. Although the U.S. government only requires passports for people traveling by air, we believe that all travelers should carry a passport. It is the safest and most convenient documentation a person can carry. Passports are valid for ten years for adults and five years for children. Ask us how to obtain a passport application today.
Are you aware of the 3-1-1 rule?
3-1-1 for carry-ons = 3.4 ounce bottle or less (by volume) ; 1 quart-sized, clear, plastic, zip-top bag; 1 bag per passenger placed in screening bin. One-quart bag per person limits the total liquid volume each traveler can bring. 3.4 oz. container size is a security measure.
Consolidate bottles into one bag and X-ray separately to speed screening.
Be prepared. Each time TSA searches a carry-on it slows down the line. Practicing 3-1-1 will ensure a faster and easier checkpoint experience.
3-1-1 is for short trips. If in doubt, put your liquids in checked luggage.
Declare larger liquids. Medications, baby formula and food, and breast milk are allowed in reasonable quantities exceeding three ounces and are not required to be in the zip-top bag. Declare these items for inspection at the checkpoint.
Be early and be patient. Heavy travel volumes and the enhanced security process may mean longer lines at security checkpoints.
