re: Do you need a passport for a Disney cruise?

Get a passport.
You don't have to have a full on passport to get on many cruises but once that boat leaves the country, the ONLY way you can get back in without a passport is on that same boat. Basically, if the ship leaves from and enters a U.S. port and doesn't leave the Western hemisphere, you don't need a passport to get on the ship or enter the U.S. when it gets back, just some form of state issued ID. You'll probably need a passport to leave the ship at any ports-of-call, though, so having one is still a good idea. Some countries will allow the passport card for this, and others will not, so getting the full passport still is a good idea. If you get sick out of the country and need to be flown home, though, (or just need to fly home early/late for any reason) you'll be told "tough shite" if you don't have a passport since you cannot enter the U.S. by air without a full passport.

Ya right! You think they are just going to never let a US Citizen back in? It might take a few hours but you can get back in. Posted on 8/2/14 at 4:12 pm to TigerstuckinMS

Pretty much nailed it. Except you don't need one to enter/exit the ports. You'll only need one if you have to fly home or something from another country.
