Do you need a passport to travel on a cruise ship?

Travel Tips
You don't need a passport to TRAVEL on a cruise ship, but if you want to get off at a port that's in another country, you need one.
Others
If it leaves the country you do.
Not to travel to the Caribbean. This is not required for sea travel until sometime between 1/1/08 and 06/09
sa
It depends on where the ship is sailing...if to the Caribbean then that decision has been delayed for cruise passengers, however other countries for eg in Europe will require a passport. It is far easier, and more convenient for your travel if you obtain a passport. and think.....you can look back and see the stamps and make a memory of all the countries you have been to. To reduce the time, take along with you your itinerary showing your date of travel to the passport office and ask for the express service - this costs a little more
It is best to call your cruise line or travel agent toget specific info on this. Some cruise lines are requiring a passport even though the regulations do not yet require one.
As of January 2007, the answer is YES. If you are taking a cruise that leaves the US - you will need a Passport.

We went last February (2006) and was told it then when we checked in.

Good Luck.
