Cruisingthesuitelife Posted October 21, 2014 #3 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Captain Clouse just announced that they need to collect all passports before our arrival in Belize. I'm just curious about how they carry out that process? Do you have a specific time and place you need to report to in order to hand it in? Thanks for any information you can provide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

denamo Posted October 21, 2014 #6 Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Captain Clouse just announced that they need to collect all passports before our arrival in Belize. Been on the Navigator to Belize. Didn't have to relinquish our passports on that cruise, so wonder if this is due to last week's Ebola scare from the Carnival passenger. Very interesting. Hoping the weather improves! Edited October 21, 2014 by denamo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
39august Posted October 21, 2014 #7 Share Posted October 21, 2014 Cruised to Belize many times and never had to turn in a passport. Must somehow be related to the Carnival situation last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NicNac4498 Posted October 21, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted October 21, 2014 They said that Belize contacted our ship this morning about collecting passports. We will be arriving an hour early to allow more time for this process. We are supposed to go down to guest services any time before our departure from Honduras tomorrow. They scan your sea pass and then the passport. I will report back about how the collection process goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cruise in december and Belize is one of our ports. We were there in 2013 and didn't have to do that. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerrydee Posted October 21, 2014 #14 Share Posted October 21, 2014 2 and 6. thank you very much. and i'm sure the passport thing for Belize is because of the carnival magic thing. they want to see where you've been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliles Posted October 22, 2014 #15 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Having a great cruise! Crappy weather today but it should clear up for tomorrow in Honduras. Any questions?

rtazz17 Posted October 22, 2014 #16 Share Posted October 22, 2014 thank you very much.and i'm sure the passport thing for Belize is because of the carnival magic thing. they want to see where you've been. I don't know,did the cruise start in US port?Cuz then you don't need a passport and they won't know where you've been anyhow without a passport.Just thinking out loud.More of a question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, but I guess those that travel without passports are taking a chance that a country may not let them off the ship. Another argument for getting a passport.

Coralc Posted October 22, 2014 #18 Share Posted October 22, 2014 It is probably likely that the people traveling with birth certificates haven't been out of the country. It's not a 100%, because they could choose not to use their passport, but likely. Interesting when there is a procedure change. Thanks for letting us know. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
websiteauthor Posted October 22, 2014 #19 Share Posted October 22, 2014 not a question but a request - if you stop by the R Bar on deck 5, would you tell Jelena and Francisco hi from Jeff and Monique? We were just on the cruise in September and they were our favorite people! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicNac4498 Posted October 22, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted October 22, 2014 The Belize officials will come aboard and randomly select people to check. If then people they select have a birth certificate they will be called to guest services. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEXASMUNK Posted October 26, 2014 #22 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Over on the "other" board comment (not fact, comment) that both Royal and Carnival are in discussions with Belize. While the Ebola thing remains in headlines, both lines. according to the comment, are looking at cancelling Belize. Belize is also a pain when disembarking. Folks rant and whine about Disembarkation in Galveston, but the problem only happens when Belize is one of the stops on the itinerary...seems the US is concerned about drug trafficking out of Belize. Ironic, Belize is looking at US originating passengers while the US keeps the gates wide open for folks from the infected areas..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
