Passport and Tickets<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">You should carry your passport or enhanced driver\u2019s license as proof of your citizenship.\u00a0You should also carry your boarding pass because, without these two, your entry would be restricted to the cruise. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-family: var(--heading--font-family); font-size: var(--heading--font-size-h3); font-weight: var(--heading--font-weight); letter-spacing: var(--heading--letter-spacing-h3); background-color: var(--global--color-background); color: var(--global--color-primary);\">2.

Toiletries\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Though the cruise might provide you with basic toiletries, it is always better to carry your own.

Evening Casual\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Casuals are the best choice for casual onboarding activities, dinners, or shows. A flowy dress, Polo shirt, skirt, and slacks are perfect for the evening.
