U.S. Citizens
United States citizens must present proof of citizenship in the form of:

1) A passport (valid or expired for less than 10 years)
2) Original birth certificate, state-issued certified copy of a birth certificate from the Department of Health and Vital Statistics
3) U.S. Military ID (no dependent IDs), or
4) Original naturalization papers 

In addition to the above requirements, all guests 16 years of age or older must provide an official photo ID.

It is important that guest names on travel documents (passport, birth certificates, etc.) be identical to those on the cruise and airline tickets. Otherwise, proof of name change (i.e., a marriage license) OR a valid driver's license or government issued photo ID (i.e., U.S. Military ID) must be presented.

U.S. Resident Aliens need a valid Alien Resident Card.

Canadian citizens must present a valid passport, original birth certificate or certified copy of a birth certificate.
