Passport Card

Can you use a passport card to sail with DCL? We have our passports, but another guest was asking about the card?

Best answer - maybe. It depends on the cruise itinerary. BUT, if there's an issue and if this other guest needed to fly home from a foreign port, a card doesn't work.

On a closed-loop cruise that leaves from and returns to the same US port, a passport card will work (as will a US birth certificate). However, as PrincessShmoo said, the card will not be sufficient if someone needs to fly back to the US from another country.

Thanks.

We just recently used our passport cards when we sailed on the Wish in November. We had no issues with it.

I agree with what others have said. You could use it as a valid form of ID, but if something goes horribly wrong and you need to fly home from a place outside the US (with the possible exceptions of Canada and Mexico), the passport card will not allow you to board a plane.
