Creator's Key Takeaways

we received a letter in our room the night before or two nights before explaining where to go where to meet

if you are planning to get off the ship you can request what's called a in transit guest card

we are actually staying in the same state room so we're doing a back to back without moving

we didn't even have to show our passports but this particular Cruise uh Port has facial recognition

Creator's Tips & Advice

Stay in the same stateroom to avoid packing and moving your luggage
Complete your muster drill as soon as possible to enjoy the rest of your cruise
Bring your passport or birth certificate for the immigration process
Look for the letter in your stateroom explaining the back-to-back process

A back 2 back cruise is when you book two consecutive cruises on the same ship. The process can be a little overwhelming if you are unfamiliar with the process after you complete your first cruise.
