If passengers do not have a valid PASSPORT, these requirements may include documentation detailing all name changes if using a birth certificate and Government issued photo ID. For example, if a person was born Mary Smith, & took the married name of Mary Jones, her birth certificate, marriage license, and Government issued ID might all be required at the port. Accordingly, Consider it Booked, LLC STRONGLY recommends that all cruise passengers obtain & present PASSPORTS.

​
INSURANCE:​

Travel Insurance is Strongly Recommended. Cancellation & Medical Insurance Protection is an important purchase decision regarding your cruise vacation travel. As your travel agent, we have a professional responsibility to discuss the purchase of cruise insurance to protect both yourself and your vacation. Travel insurance provided protection for the traveler in the event that the trip is canceled due to certain circumstances (for specific inclusions/exclusions, please contact your Consider it Booked, LLC Vacation Consultant). Travel Insurance also protects in the event of most medical emergencies, and in many instances, pre-existing conditions are covered if purchased within 14 days of initial trip deposit. Some other benefits may include legal assistance, emergency medical evacuation, medical referrals, and travel document and ticket replacement assistance. By not purchasing Travel Insurance, you are liable for any cancellation penalties and out of pocket expenses incurred and are responsible for your own provisions in the event of an emergency while traveling. Again, we strongly recommend that you review this protection with your Sales Representative/Agent. Please note that if you decline insurance coverage, your confirmation will note, "declined" next to cancellation insurance and you are hereby considered to have waived your right to this important coverage. Consider it Booked, LLC shall not be responsible for any injuries, damages, or losses caused to any traveler. If you HAVE purchased Cruise Insurance, expect your policy to arrive within 2-3 weeks. IMPORTANT: If you have not received your policy within 21 days of your booking date, please call us.

A cabin guarantee is a reservation for at least that category OR better. No agent at Consider it Booked, LLC hereby implies that you WILL attain a cabin better that the minimum category guarantee - other than by chance. Please expect the cabin category as guaranteed and be pleasantly surprised IF your resulting cabin is a higher category. Final assignments of "guarantees" may be at the time of documentation OR ultimately at the pier on day of embarkation. Additionally, if you have chosen a guarantee - please be advised that in bookings consisting of 3-5 people sharing the same cabin, that the cruise line reserves the right to utilize one rollaway to accommodate all guests.
