      Excellent information! I'm glad I'm not the only one who prints and photo/emails extras.
      Something that is really necessary is a separate medication list. I know you fill out the medical sheet prior to boarding, but this is a backup slip of paper you can carry with your cash/cards. If you take meds daily - insulin, anxiety, thyroid...whatever - you need to have a list of the medication, dosage, frequency and prescriber. It's a just in case, but if you have it and something happens - you're a lot more covered. (Also include allergies to medications - if you don't have any you can mark NKA - no known allergies). If you're away from the ship and something happens - it's a good idea to have if you need medical care.

  • @rayworthy8022
    @rayworthy8022 Год назад +7

    I would like to add on your boarding documents is to put at least 1 luggage tag INSIDE of your luggage. That way if for some reason the one on the outside gets lost there is one in your luggage so if they open it up they will know where to take your luggage.

    • @simpson161
      @simpson161 5 месяцев назад +1

      Luggage tags can intentionally accidentally removed. Included a two printed copies of your name, home address, cell phone number, airlines itinerary, ship itinerary, emergency contact & emergency phone. Place these printed information inside the packed items. . Luggage tags can intentionally accidentally removed.

  • @SHenry-kx7gb
    @SHenry-kx7gb 11 месяцев назад +1

    We cover our luggage tags with packing tape to make it stronger. I also use blue painters tape to put our room number on the outside of our luggage and I write our room number and name, sailing date, ship etc on a piece of paper inside our luggage! I know it's overkill but I always hear the lost luggage announcements! lol! Also, one time we had a new girl checking us in and she was confused why my last name wasn't the same as my birth certificate! Luckily I packed my marriage license, haha! You just never know, so we always bring it.

  • @stuartmcnicol2914

    We always travel with the passports, as you can't fly out with a birth certificate outside the US. We have passport cards as well, but once again this too will not get you out of all foreign countries. We also print duplicates of all our cruise documents. sounds crazy, but we had to actually prove we had requested anytime dining on Carnival one time, as this was incorrect on our sign and sail cards, and the only proof I had for them to change it was on our cruise paperwork.

      Hi Brenda! There is no out of pocket costs for those with insurance. You just give them your insurance card at the time of testing. For those without insurance, you simply give them your social security number and the test is paid for through a federal program. If a person opts to do neither of the above, they can pay cast at the time of the visit and I believe the cost is $139. Hope that helps!

    • @TheTravelScouts
      @TheTravelScouts  Год назад

      Hi Friend. For domestic cruises that begin and end at a U.S. port, Carnival Cruise Line (as an example) states the following:
      Traveling with a Birth Certificate AND Photo Identification
      Birth Certificate Information. The following are acceptable:
      1. An original or copy of a birth certificate issued by a government agency (state/county/city) or the Department of Health and Vital Statistics
      2. A clear, legible copy (photocopy) of a birth certificate that was originally issued by a government agency (state/county/city) or the Department of Health and Vital Statistics. The copy does not need to be notarized or certified.
      3. Birth Certificate Card
      4. A Consular report of Birth Abroad
      5. Internationally adopted children (under the age of 18): If the adoptive parent was not issued a birth certificate, we will accept as proof of citizenship, a Certificate of Citizenship by the U.S. and adoption paperwork. A Certificate of Citizenship is issued by the U.S. once the adoption is finalized.
      6. Guests may obtain a copy of a birth certificate by contacting: The Department of Health and Vital Statistics at: www.vitalchek.com. If the guest has laminated their birth certificate, it is acceptable.
      The direct link to Carnival's site where the above is found is here:
