Creator's Key Takeaways

when you are leaving the cruise port you have to have the proper documentation readily available to get out of the cruise terminal or to get off of the cruise ship

if you are cruising with a passport make sure when you walk up to the custom official to have that passport open to the photo page and present that to them

you do not want to be standing at the customs line going through all your luggage laughing nervously trying to get home from your cruise

security personnel should not be filmed so when you approach to leave the cruise ship or to come back on the cruise ship turn your camera off

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Have your passport or ID readily available and open to the photo page when going through customs.
βœ“Do not pack your identification in checked bags; keep it in hand.
βœ“When leaving or returning to the ship, have your ship card or wearable ready for scanning.
βœ“Do not film security personnel at the gangway.
βœ“For excursions, secure your ID in a locker if possible, especially for water activities.
βœ“Empty your pockets before going through metal detectors to avoid holding up the line.
