make sure you arrive at least one day early we can attest to this we've had it happen to us one time thank goodness we left and we were getting there a day early

you're going to have to have either a passport or a birth certificate to get on your cruise yes now I know passports cost money and they're a little expensive but really if you can invest the money and get that passport
