    Hello! We are sailing in October. We have applied for our passports we think that they will arrive in time before boarding the ship. We have to use our birth certificates for the online check in, can we then use our passports for boarding or no?

    Ahoy to you, Nyeshia, glad you’ve sailed through to planDisney!

    I love hearing that you’ll be sailing with Disney Cruise Line real soon. It’s such a magical experience and one of my favorite ways to vacation in the magic. 

    It sounds like you may have already completed your check-in using your birth certificates. In that case, they’ve already verified your travel documentation, so you will need to use the same documentation used in the online check for your cruise. 

    Remember you’ll also need your port arrival form which can be downloaded from the Navigator app, and also sent via email with a QR code. Either print it out or add it to your mobile wallet!

    There’s so much magic happening at sea, be sure to check out the themed lounges and pre-purchase a professional photo package because you’ll want to capture all the core memories with some of your favorite friends! The booking window should be open for you to reserve onboard activities, dining, and port adventures. Just remember the cancellation window for dining is 24 hours and port adventures are 3 days. 

    Well, Nyeshia, I sure hope you have an amazing trip! If you have any other questions before your departure, please feel free to stop by again

    Bon Voyage!
