My family (14 individuals) is going on the Disney Cruise to Alaska. We would like to do the Crab Fishing Excursion in Ketichikan (not booked directly via Disney). The age restriction is 5 and older. Everyone is 5 and older except for one child who will be three weeks short of being 5 (he will be 4 years, 11 months, 1 week old). It says the age restriction is due to coast guard regulations. Personally, I'm not concerned about my child's attention span or ability to be on the crab boat (this isn't kayaking or zip lining where I can understand age limits). He's also 40 pounds so would meet weight limits. I'm certain no one would be able to identify my son as being 4 years, 11 months, 1 week old vs. 5 years old and 1 day.
Does anyone know if these excursion companies actually check ID for age? I don't want to pay for an excursion that we then can't do. Thanks.
