What is online check in and why do it?

I have been taking many calls recently from clients asking about on line check so I thought I would clarify a few points.

Before boarding your cruise your chosen cruise line will require the following information. Your passport details, next of kin information and insurance details.

On line check is not essential but as you can imagine if passengers have done this prior to getting to the port then embarkation will be quicker for everyone.

So how to go about doing on line check:

Once your cruise has been confirmed you will be sent an operator reference number. Please remember if you have booked through a travel agent this number will be different to their booking reference number.

You can then use this number to access your individual bookings direct with the cruise lines. On the www.cruise.co.uk website this can be accessed using the payment and on line check facility. CLICK HERE

Managing your booking online is great as you can start to plan your trip from the comfort of your own home by requesting luggage labels, booking shore excursions and even booking speciality restaurants.

90% of cruiselines now operate using etickets which again will be available to download from your cruise personaliser and you will receive an email from us approx 2 weeks before travel to let you know they are ready.
