Hi Everyone,

As a clarification, the new passport law for cruisers was postponed
and does NOT go into effect on January 1, 2007.

Best regards,

At this point it is really unclear what the need is for a passport. As
you say they have delayed the requirement that returning US citizens
have a passport when returning with the cruise. What the situation is
if you leave the cruise is unclear. I suppose you can always swim the
Rio G and ask them why they think you were ever out of the US.

If you fly in it could get touchy at some point.
