Sailaway John Posted October 28, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Will be doing a B2B cruise soon and I have never done one before, so I am asking a question as to whether I will have to get off the ship when it returns to the disembarkation port. My cabin will be the same cabin for both cruises so no luggage to come off or be moved. I have received two boarding passes - one for each cruise, so I suppose I will have to present these to Customs and Immigration at sometime. Can anyone advise and assist - Thank You.

goofy559 Posted October 28, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 28, 2016 It is very straightforward. You will receive instructions in your cabin on where to meet. Sometimes immigration comes on board sometimes the group disembark, clears customs and is first to reboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, your turnaround port is in Australia and I do not know what their rules are for continuing passengers. Maybe someone from Australia will read this and provide the answer.

Boarding pass for the first cruise will be presented to Princess at check-in. I have never needed a boarding pass for the 2nd segment of a B2B.

John we did a b2b on the Diamond a few years ago and the instructions will be on your bed on the last night of the first cruise but we were given a transit card and we could go off at a different location to the disembarking & embarking passengers...we wanted to get off in Auckland but not sure what happened if you wanted to stay onboard....all will be told in the letter and you shouldnt have to do the 2nd muster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamomo Posted October 28, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 28, 2016 LUCKY YOU!!! It's such a great feeling on turnaround day, when all those other passengers are disembarking, and you sit there and watch, knowing that you are staying on!! I love it!!

It's a good opportunity to restock on wine, otherwise there could be a bit of a wait in the terminal. I take the 2nd leg boarding passes just in case :o, but you really don't need them....nor will you need the luggage tags for the 2nd leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the Australian Gov't have similar zero count regulations to those enforced in the U.S.? I thought only the U.S. had these what I feel are 'outdated, pre-electronic' rules.
