Creator's Key Takeaways

I have my birth certificate. I have my driver's license, but apparently because I don't have my marriage certificate with me, they're questioning at my nationality.

This is ridiculous. Now again, I just got off a ship 3 days ago up in Seattle where we were back to back to back for 21 days using the exact same documentation.

Carnival, you need to get your stuff together so that from one location to the next. It's the same across the board.

Documentation that's good enough in Seattle should be good enough in San Francisco.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Ensure you have all required documentation, including marriage certificates, for boarding regardless of port.
βœ“Verify documentation requirements with Carnival before sailing to avoid inconsistencies between ports.

YouTube Video Description↓

@Cruisability Carnival ALMOST cost me my cruise! Boarding procedures, whether in Seattle or San Francisco, should've been the same. Luckily, two of our adult children (not even on the cruise), were able to send their birth certificates, to satisfy ridiculous requirements, just to go to the same places in Alaska.
