Any Visa required for Britannia Caribbean cruise

[Plugtheleak]

Sorry if this has been asked before but I did search previous posts before starting a new tread. We are booked for our first Caribbean cruise early next year on Britannia. I like to be organised and wanted to know if there is anything I need to do in advance? I have read somewhere about some form I need to complete 72 hours before arrival but wonder if some of you seasoned cruises can outline what we need to do please.

You should be sent an email c 72 hours in advance to complete. I can't remember the details, sorry. The Caribbean cruises start again in October so perhaps someone could give you uptodate information then?

You'll get an email a week or so ahead of departure that advises you what you need to do. It includes this: 

	Complete the Barbados Immigration and Customs form. This is available here. This form will be available to complete 72 hours prior to travel, and it is strongly advised that this is completed no later than 24 hours prior to travel. We've created a handy guide on how to complete this here
	Check the entry requirements for your itinerary (including any passenger locator forms to complete) here

Thank you for both responses very helpful and has put me at ease.

You usually need to get an ESTA if visiting any US ports.

This lasts 2 years and costs approximately $11.

As with most things Graham it has gone up, currently $21, or it was a fortnight ago, may have gone up again since then😁

Make sure you get the ESTA right. You may need one even if you are not getting off the ship (money for old rope).
