Documents needed when sailing from Seattle-UK resident

[debstar*]

Hi all

 

I have a valid UK passport and a US esta as I am flying in and out of Seattle. Do I need anything else as the ship docks in Victoria ? Will my passport be enough ?

 

Thanks for any clarification

UK passport holders do not need a Canadian Visa.  Check-in agents in Seattle will process your UK passport just like a US passport.  It will be pretty straightforward.

Thanks for your reply.

All you will need getting off the ship is Victoria is your SeaPass card key (room key), and some sort of gov't issued photo ID like a driver's license.  You will not be presenting your passport at any of the Alaskan or Canadian ports-of-call. 

The photo ID is usually shown upon returning to the ship as you enter the secured dock area.  By showing it, it helps the port security folks know that the person presenting the SeaPass card key is a cruise passenger, and not someone who just found a Seapass card and wants to check-out the dock, or see the ship close up.  It's just an extra layer of security.
