Is a military ID an acceptable form of citizenship? My husband and I are in the Marine Corps and will be traveling on the Fantasy on May 16.

My DH is retired AF. According to our TA his ID is a form of citizenship but dependents are not. However, when we went on the Paradise last year they asked for his birth certificate or passport along with the ID. The person checking us in said his military ID was just for photo ID purposes.
rule of thumb..take birth certificatewith raised seal or passport

Military ID's do not prove citizenship. U.S. citizenship is not a requirement to enlist in any of the branchs. Your military ID however is a form of picture ID as your drivers license would be. I know that does not help you, however better to find out now then when you are trying to board. Be safe get a pass port or certified B/C...

If you booked your cruise and received a military discount, you need to take it with you. If you can't prove that you are in the military they will ask for the price difference.
However, we always lock our ID up in the cabin safe. We never leave the ship with our IDs. Have a great trip!

Our son, a Marine, used his military ID the entire trip last Thanksgiving. He did have a passport but his military ID would have been sufficient. However, it is always best to check with either your travel agent or Carnival in case rules have been changed. He had no problem.
