Hello! We're taking a closed loop cruise to the Bahamas ports on Norwegian.
Our 16 year old's passport expires the week before we leave. (Woops!) We will apply for an expedited passport, but curious if we need it?
NCL and govt sites say that on a closed loop cruise you can travel without passport if you have an original copy of state issued birth certificate with seal (which we have) and a Government Issued Photo ID. Does anyone know if a Colorado learner's (instruction) permit which is looks like a license, is a Real ID with photo, birthdate and the Real ID star will be acceptable as the second form of ID with the birth certificate on a closed loop cruise? (NCL said they can't answer that, DMV says they think so, and govt sites don't address the learner's permit specifically just drivers license.)
Appreciate the insight if you have experience or knowledge to share!
