Really, we have been told by Cheryl to cruise on the Norwegian Sky, everyone, regardless of age, needs a passport, 
Bill, I know you are involved in the travel field, could you check with the Norwegian Sky and find out for sure if a passport is required or not? 
Thanks,
Holly

> Hi Peter, Holly and everyone else.  A passport is currently not required for a cruise of this type.  There is talk that that will change but as of now what is required is an origenal birth certifacate and a photo ID (govt. issued)  Holly, you have plenty of time, well over a year to get an ID for your son.

Many of the Greater Daytona Chapter members have never stepped foot on a cruise ship including my bride or I, never-the-less the excitement on just going on one intrigues both of us. Since the wife and I have recently obtained passports (quite costly I must say)for other travel purposes, many of our chapter members do not have one nor do several of them have the resources this close to the holidays to be able to afford or obtain one. My other concern is that when I go to state convention it is usually to network, exchange information, have camaraderie with affiliate friends and to seek out new technology that vendors bring to convention, from our presidents meeting I gathered that the vendors will be left out of 2014 convention cruise.(correct me if I’m wrong)I believe that Tom Bellone has some valid concerns that should be addressed. So let’s brainstorm to come up with some amicable solutions to all of the concerns that the affiliate members may have.

Remember the entertainment shipboard will be mostly in the evening and I would not think meeting and convention events would take place while in port.
