Shawnlahue Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 If my 17 year old has a passport and is going on a cruise with no relative but with a group does she still need a letter notarized or is she good to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PL8SWPR Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 Follow this guidance to the letter. It does NOT say that the requirements are void just because the minor has a passport. In fact there is a line on the sample letter for the passport number. https://www.royalcaribbean.com/gbr/en/faq/questions/what-if-i-am-traveling-with-a-minor-and-i-am-not-their-parent-or-legal-guardian?country=GBR Shawnlahue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan79 Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 A passport has no bearing AT ALL on requiring a letter from their parents. Those are two unrelated items. Shawnlahue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floatingby Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 It's still wise to send the letter. Better they have it and don't use it than be asked for it and need to scramble. The letter also usually states that the adult they're with can make an emergency medical decision if parents are unreachable. At least that was the case with the letter I had to provide when my son travelled without a parent. Shawnlahue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 Concur with the others. I JUST read something about this today. They must be 18 in order to travel without a parent....or have an authorization which is notarized. Shawnlahue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
