Hiding on the ship during disembarkation

The long range sensors would require a battery for the RFID to broadcast. That's why they say Magic Bands are only good for a few years (for the long range stuff). The KTTWC doesn't have a battery.

Passive RFID chips (without a battery) can still be read by long-range readers. When the reader "scans", it sends out a microwave signal that temporarily powers the chip and its antenna, allowing it to broadcast a signal back to the reader.

Such a great thread -- and just fun!

Sure, they will know what you look like. Even if they didn't, any guest found on the ship after 9:00 a.m., be they lollygagger, stowaway or lost child/senior, would be detained, I think?

For this plan to work, you'd hypothetically have to hide, 100% unseen, until the next sailing started boarding, and then try to blend in with the new passengers.

Even then, I suppose they could use the facial recognition technology to try and pick you out of the crowd. I just don't see how boarding could even start until all of the prior sailing's passengers were accounted for.

When you disembark you have to scan your card. They will know that someone did not get off and who they are.
