Working Port - Photo ID? - 3 year old?

[SMerritt]

We are going on a cruise with our family! Yay! Finally!

 

When returning to the ship from a "Working Port" - Nassau comes to mind, you are required to have your ship card AND a photo ID.

 

Our 3.5 year old grandson has a passport......

 

Will a photo copy of his passport work? We would rather not carry the actual PP on the islands.

 

What do you do?

 

Thanks in advance....

No one under 16 years needs a photo id. Adults may be asked for Driver's license....you won't need your passport at all at any port.

If you want to get him a photo ID and do not want to take off his passport--Go to the Dept of Motor Vehicles and get him a State ID. Our DDs have had theirs since they were in elementary school.

Oh cool Sadie - thanks!

 

In Hawaii, we saw someone that had to wait at the gate until their friend fetched their PHOTO ID from the ship. Kicked off the bus :rolleyes:

 

On our first cruise to Nassau - I didn't have my photo i.d. (required) but the benevolent officer let it "slide".
