Documentation Confusion - First Time Cruiser - Help

[Captain_Lou]

Hi,

First time cruiser here to any help would be greatly appreciated

We have added a 3 night cruise form Port Canaveral onto our existing two week Walt DisneyWorld holiday and we sail on November 15th.

I have just starting to print all documents for the trip and saw on the Port Arrival Form that is says "Guests should be prepared to present a copy of their I-94 arrival record upon request". I see a link to the website where I can sign up but I will have arrived into the US two weeks before my cruise and will not have access to a computer/printer, etc. so if I print it now it will not show that I have arrived in the US so how do I go about getting this form or is that not what it means?

Getting nervous as I want to make sure I have all of the right documentation.

Sorry if this makes no sense but if you can understand my ramble, any information would be great

Per the CBP website "Air and Sea travelers will be issued I-94s during the admission process at the port of entry." If you are arriving not by air and need to print a form, many hotels have business centers and at those that don't, the concierge at pretty much any hotel will be able to assist you. If you are not staying at a hotel, I would try talking to guest relations at WDW to see if they can help. ​

May I ask where you see this? We just did our online forms for our upcoming cruise and I didn’t see that.

It was not on the DCL site—I went dirctly to the customs and border patrol website

Thanks. I’ll take a look and see if it applies to us.

It says this on the Disney Cruise Line website;

"Guests should be prepared to present a copy of their I-94 arrival record upon request."

and it is mentioned on the Port Arrival Form that you print to take to the port with you.

I was wondering if anyone had actually been asked for their I-94 record?

Personally it's been a while (so they might have changed things), but the I-94 is just the stamp you get in your passport when you enter the U.S. The stamp will have a date until when you're allowed to be in the country (90 days from entry with ESTA or whatever your visa indicates).
