Once you’ve made your final cruise payment, it’s important to go online and submit all of the travel documentation as well as secure your boarding passes. This will help save a lot of time at check-in when you arrive at the pier. You can also use this time to pre-arrange some of the many options that cruises offer, such as reservations for specialty dining, show tickets, and spa appointments. It also ensures that you’re prepared with appropriate documents for arrival so there are no surprises at the pier.
