    I am thinking of bringing 3 grandchildren with me one day. Each have different last names than mine. Birth certificates and parental consent letters needed?

    Hi there, Sandra! Welcome to planDisney. 

    I love that you are thinking of taking your grandchildren on a Disney Cruise! What a magical way to make memories together. I'd be happy to help you prepare to do so. Everyone in your sailing party needs to have the proper travel identification to sail.  Depending on the itinerary, this could be a passport or birth certificate. If your grandchildren are over the age of 15 and using a birth certificate as their identification, they will also need to present a government-issued photo ID at the port. Please review this link carefully to determine what you'll need based on where you choose to sail. 

    The second important document you must bring for each grandchild is the "Authorization for Minor to Travel without a Parent or Legal Guardian" form. This form must be completed by a parent or legal guardian for each of the children it applies to, naming you as the authorized adult. You will need to present the form during check-in at the port terminal.

    I hope this information helps you as you plan and prepare for a Disney vacation on the high seas. With something for everyone on board, you and your grandchildren will make memories that last a lifetime.

    Happy Planning!
