Sargent_Schultz Posted December 14, 2010 #26 Share Posted December 14, 2010 The requirement: "34Under CBP regulations, cruise ships are required to transmit arrival manifest data at least 96 hours before entering the U.S. port or place for voyages of 96 hours or more; prior to departure of the ship from a foreign port for voyages less than 96 but at least 24 hours; or at least 24 hours before entering the United States place or port for voyages of less than 24 hours. In addition, ships are required to submit manifest data 60 minutes before departure from the United States. Manifest data requirements include, among other things, full name, date of birth, gender, citizenship, country of residence, status on board the ship, travel document type, passport information (if required), address while in the United States (not required for U.S. citizens, lawful permanent residents, crew members, or persons who are in transit to a location outside the United States), voyage information, and ship information." http://www.gao.gov/new.items/d10400.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sargent_Schultz Posted December 14, 2010 #28 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I had no idea us newbie cruisers offended or annoyed some. Wow!! They don't annoy me or the cruise lines. New customers are what grow the business and existing ones often overrate themselves. Enjoy your cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mscruzer Posted December 14, 2010 #29 Share Posted December 14, 2010 I know I've asked some stupid questions but I am clueless about this whole cruising thing and the people we planned to go with, we no longer speak to so we are winging it!!! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azurewater Posted December 14, 2010 #30 Share Posted December 14, 2010 Sgt...I will give them a call today. Thanks for the advice. and for the fellow that says he boarded at 3:00 pm, well you better read your boarding pass. Ours states that you need to board by 2;30! Hate for you to be on the deck getting photos of the ship pulling away from the dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willjoe75 Posted December 14, 2010 #31 Share Posted December 14, 2010 We will be off on our cruise in a week, boarding the Triumph at the Erato Street terminal. Our boarding pass says boarding is noon to 2:00pm or something like that. Any advice on whether it makes sense to arrive early at terminal, and if so how early. Looking to avoid traffic jams getting into parking and for a smooth boarding process with the least amount of standing in line. Thanks. We just cruised her last week...we arrived at 1015 and were on the ship at 1120. Get there early!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
