Flights, Hotel & More:
All flights should arrive and depart from the airport nearest the cruise terminal port. We recommend Ft. Lauderdale Airport. If you arrive on the day of the cruise, ensure your flight is on the ground by 11:00 am.
We recommend that all passengers arrive the day before the cruise leaves to guard against flight cancellations and delays.
When we arrive back in Ft. Lauderdale, please ensure your flight does not leave until 1:00 pm or later to avoid debarkation and customs delays.

Insurance & More:
Travel Insurance is recommended and can be purchased by reaching out to cruise@pilgrimexperiences.com
Common travel problems like flight delays, travel injuries and illnesses, unpredictable weather, and lost or stolen luggage are why today’s smart travelers travel with a Travel Guard® travel insurance plan. All deposits and payments are non-refundable.
Travel Documents – proper travel documentation is required at embarkation and throughout the cruise and is the guest’s responsibility. Any guest traveling without proper documentation will not be allowed to board the vessel, and no refund of the cruise fare will be issued. U.S. citizens are encouraged to show a U.S. passport. If they do not have a passport, they should be prepared to provide a valid government-issued photo ID (i.e., Driver’s License) and proof of U.S. citizenship in the form of a government-issued (not hospital-issued) U.S. birth certificate. It is important that guest names on travel documents be identical to those on the cruise booking. Otherwise, proof of name change (i.e., a marriage license) OR a valid driver’s license or government-issued photo ID must be presented. For further information on documentation for U.S. citizens, see U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Online Check-in:
Check-in online! It’s easy.
When you check in online, it saves time. You won’t have to fill out any forms at the pier. When you and your party arrive, you’ll just need your signed Set Sail pass, identification documents, and credit card that you registered online. First, gather the following information for all the guests you’re checking in:
Ship, sailing date, and Royal Caribbean reservation number
Passport or appropriate proof of citizenship and identification
Home address
Emergency contact name with phone number
Travel plans before and after your cruise
Credit card for the Onboard Expense Account
TIP: For security purposes, the system will time out after 30 minutes even though there is activity, so ensure you have everything listed above before you begin.
Booking & Luggage Info:
You will receive a reservation letter with your booking number after you pay your deposit. You will use your reservation number to set up your Cruise Planner. And you’ll be able to check-in about 50 days before our sail date. It takes just a few minutes to fill in your personal details online. Then you can relax, knowing everything is already in the system before you pack!
Any luggage you wish to check will be left with the porters, and the bags will be delivered to your stateroom door by 7 pm.
All checked bags must have a luggage tag with your name, ship, and stateroom number. You will receive your luggage tags about 30 days before our sail date.
Special Needs/Diet Forms: Please fill in the necessary information during registration or contact us at cruise@pilgrimexperiences.com
Infant Policy – Infants must be at least six months of age at the time of embarkation in order to sail. Children must be at least 12 months of age at the time of embarkation to sail on trans-ocean crossings and remote itineraries with more than two consecutive sea days.

Whether you're coming as a couple or bringing the whole family, our vacations are crafted to be both meaningful and memorable. While our main sessions are geared toward adults, they’re scheduled to coincide with Royal Caribbean’s Adventure Ocean® programming—an engaging, age-specific kids club offered during select times onboard. So while your children are having a blast, you’ll have the space to fully participate, reflect, and connect.
