I would and did get passports last year for our cruise. They said we would have to have them by then. Did you know that they are more official than a state ID and you can use it as a second ID anywhere?

We never planned to use them after the cruise but ended up going to Mexico within the year and now have another cruise planned. Look at it as an investment *smirk*.

Ditto on the getting stuck part. I would be concerned about that. Especially if kids are involved. I am sure you could get home somehow but -the hassle? Maybe since you are treating for the trip, the others would be ok getting the passports? They are about $80 each or something like that.

I wonder how it works through customs and getting back from the various ports when they quick scan your passport? Anyone know?
