Verification of Information for Accuracy
Please review your confirmation carefully for accuracy & spelling and notify BambisBoats.com immediately, within 24 hours of the booking date, if any changes or corrections are needed. Compare the ship, sailing dates, and itinerary on this receipt with the cruise line’s current brochure for accuracy.
Legal Names Are Required
All passenger names listed must be LEGAL first & last names. It is crucial that guest names on travel documents (passport, Alien Resident Card, birth certificates, etc.) be identical to those on the cruise and airline tickets (if applicable). Otherwise, proof of name change (i.e., a marriage license) AND a valid driver’s license or government-issued photo ID (i.e., U.S. Military ID) may be required to be presented. Passengers on honeymoon cruises should consider that their travel documents (proof of citizenship) will be in maiden names, and cruise documents must match.
Passenger/Name Changes
Name change requests (including incorrect legal names or misspellings) that occur within 120 days of the sailing departure date are at the discretion of the cruise line and subject to cruise line-imposed fees and/or penalties. All name changes MUST be submitted in writing to process.
Cruise Lines Terms & Conditions
Read Supplier’s Brochures carefully. Cruise line brochures contain important information concerning your cruise vacation (i.e. pregnancy & age restrictions, itinerary changes, refusal of passage etc.) Review the cruise line’s terms and conditions, particularly policies concerning cancellation penalties as these apply. If applicable, locate your cabin to verify its location and bedding options. Cruise line brochures may be viewed for these terms and conditions on the applicable cruise line’s website.
Initial Payment
Final approval of the payment is conditional by the cruise line for up to 24 hours after your online booking process. We will contact you if your payment was not approved.
Agency Processing Fees
BambisBoats.com has no agency processing fees for changes or cancellations made by our online service form.
Coupons/Certificates
No additional discounts or future cruise credits will be applicable unless explicitly stated at the time of booking.
Refaring Original Price
Any fare reductions permitted by the vendor must be done through BambisBoats.com and not directly with the vendor. Any amenities given previously will be reduced or forfeited.

Documents
All travel documents are done electronically and will be emailed to the email address on this invoice. For bookings where electronic documents are not available, physical documents will be mailed approximately 2 to 3 weeks prior to departure.
Pier Identification & Proof of Citizenship
In accordance with the post 9/11, Congressionally passed US Border Security Act; the Advance Passenger Information System (APIS) reporting has been implemented by most cruise lines.
All passengers will be required to complete online pre-registration information, if applicable to your cruise line, as well as present all required documentation at the port on embarkation/sailing day.
All cruises require proof of citizenship, mainly in the form of a passport and some may also require VISAS and certain health inoculations. It is your responsibility to ask an agent if you need any special documentation to travel on your cruise. If in doubt as to what may be required, contact your cruise specialist or you may contact the Customs Department, cruise line or air line directly. It is ultimately the responsibility of the traveler to find out in advance what is needed for them to travel. Because there may be time restrictions on receiving the proper paperwork we recommend checking before purchasing your travel arrangements. Failure to have proper documentation, visas or inoculations may result in your being denied boarding. Should you be denied boarding BambisBoats.com will not be held responsible as it is the travelers responsibility to inquire about and obtain passports / visas / inoculations. Non-US citizens must check with their consulate for requirements. ***Any sailings on or after December 31, 2007 will have requirement changes concerning proper documentation for all passengers traveling to all destinations, for the most up to date information visit www.dhs.gov *** Most cruise lines require immigration information forms to be filled out prior to receiving travel documents. To do this visit the cruise line’s website. For any questions on this please contact your agent. We will not be responsible for delay in documentation due to the forms not being filled out or filled out properly.
Urgent – Pre-Registration Requirements
PLEASE NOTE: PRE-REGISTRATION MAY CURRENTLY NOT BE APPLICABLE TO SOME CRUISE LINES. However, please be advised that pier documentation requirements are applicable to ALL Cruise lines.
You are REQUIRED to complete this pre-departure information on the cruise line website, IF APPLICABLE, and we recommend that you print out a copy to present at port embarkation on your sailing departure day. BambisBoats.com or the cruise line will contact you ONLY if your APIS form is required and has not been received or is not completed properly. Printing out the registration information is your confirmation of pre-registration unless you are contacted. Again, you will ONLY be contacted if the form has not been received, lost, or not completed properly. FAILURE TO COMPLETE THE APIS FORM, IF REQUIRED, MAY RESULT IN THE CRUISELINE NOT ISSUING YOUR CRUISE DOCUMENTATION.
Please remember that the following documents are REQUIRED for your cruise. Failure to comply may result in the Cruise Line’s refusal to allow you to board the vessel & no refund of the cruise fare will be issued by the cruise line.
- US Citizens: Caribbean, Alaska, Bermuda, Mexican, & most Panama Canal Cruises (exceptions may apply) Birth certificate AND photo ID issued by a government entity (i.e. Driver’s License), marriage license(s), or name change documentation OR a valid US passport.

BambisBoats.com assumes no responsibility for advising guests of Immigration requirements.
Airfare Add-On

In order to completely confirm any specific flight times, airlines, class of seats, upgrades and flight numbers or be assigned the same flights as traveling companions you will need to pay an air deviation fee imposed by the cruise line as well as possible penalties. All airfare that has not been deviated is at the sole discretion of the cruise line and BambisBoats.com will not be held responsible. We can not guarantee that all family members will be on the same flights unless a deviation is purchased from the cruise line; and BambisBoats.com will not be responsible for separation of family members / traveling companions or for any flight schedule/time or airline choice at anytime regardless of whether you purchased a deviation or not as we have no control over cruise line air at any time.
Cancellation Policies
ALL CRUISE LINES HAVE PENALTIES FOR CANCELLING OR CHANGING YOUR CRUISE; PENALTIES AND CANCELLATION TERMS VARY BY CRUISE LINE AND ITINERARY. FOR DETAILS PLEASE CONTACT YOUR AGENT OR THE CRUISE LINE.
