We sail in less than 2 weeks and I have a couple of last minute questions.

1. We have a 2 year old that is still working on being potty trained. Rather than lugging a diaper bag around, we normally use a bookbag on trips to carry his diapers, wipes, and whatever else we may need. Are we allowed to carry a bookbag onboard? Or do we need to put everything in a regular carry on bag? (We are taking regular carry ons, but the bookbag would help for excursions and other times off the ship.)

2. My printer was out of ink when I did online check-in awhile back. Is there a way I can go back in and print it now? Or should I just wait until we get to Port?

3. Kind of goes with question #2. I wasn't able to print off anything with our PAT. Will they know it's our PAT at the gate or do I need that paper? I know what time our PAT is, but am not sure if we need it to get in. I do have the cruise documents Disney sent, but the PAT is not listed in them.

Thank you guys in advance! I'm a big planner, and considering we will be 12 hours from home I want to make sure we will have everything we need!
 
I don't know what a book bag is but if it can fit through the scanner it should be fine.

If you have done online check in just log back in and go to the last section...not sure what it's called...but you should be able to print out stuff. You really only need the signature pages. And you don't really need anything to check in. It's all on the computer. Just be sure to have your passport with you. I've left my luggage tags at home and if you tell the baggage guys your room number they will write it on a blank tag.

1. Whatever you wish to carry on (however many you wish) must be able to fit through the scanner. Max size is 22X14X9.
2. Yes, just go back to your online check in and go to the signature page (I think it's like page 8?).
3. The signature page has your PAT on it.
 
I assume your book bag is a standard school backpack? That's fine. It is my dad's carry on of choice.

Print your pages whenever. I'm not sure about PAT.
 

I don't know what a book bag is but if it can fit through the scanner it should be fine.

Book bag is a regionalism for backpack, knapsack, rucksack, etc. Growing up in northern NJ we said book bag, but when we moved to the DC area it was mostly called a backpack.

I agree with cedrickandsophie and Scmoo, if it fits through the scanner (and it would have to be a HUGE backpack to NOT fit) then you'll be fine. You get to carry it around until your room is ready.

For #3, on our last cruise in January, there was a DCL rep at the beginning of the bridge from the garage to the terminal with a tablet. He could see PAT information on there.
