Many cruise lines do not require a passport (or passport number) until you arrive at the pier; (most, however, require you to complete pre-boarding information on line to expedite your embarkation process). Therefore, you should have plenty of time to apply for a passport once you have selected your cruise. Depending on where and when you plan to cruise, you may not need a passport -- but it is a good idea to get one as soon as possible to be prepared for future travel! The requirements for passports for land and sea travel have been extended to summer 2008. If you are planning to cruise to the Caribbean, Mexico, the Bahamas or Canada (for most Alaska cruises) before then, you will not need a passport and can travel with a certified birth certificate and a government issued photo ID.
Happy Sailing!

To get a good cruise deal, there must be flexibility in the schedule. Also, the cruise should be booked at least six moths in advance if possible.
