hihilo Posted October 17, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 17, 2016 (1) I had great service with the expedited passport service RE: getting a new passport as my "old" one had too few pages left. The old one was still valid, till 2020, so I'm not sure if that had anything to do with the really efficient and speedy service I received. I sent it in, to Philadelphia on 10/3 and it was back on 10/14. (2) ~~~ so~~~ Do I logically do something, now ???? Since i have a new PP # ? When I booked, with CUNARD, months ago, I had the old #, of course. THKS for the good advice + suggestions that I know will be forthcoming.

You should now update your VP with the (new) correct details to avoid any issues/delays when trying to board QM2 at the terminal. Also update any other documents you may have completed that may have asked you to record your passport number (such as airlines, although that would be unusual I believe?). Hope this helps, Bon Voyage :) Edited October 17, 2016 by pepperrn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing like closing the barn door once the horse has escaped, but I hoped you requested extra pages when you renewed your passport. It's now the same price with either the normal number of pages (I think about 24) or a large one with extra visa pages (52 page total) for the same price. It's very worthwhile to do for people who do a lot of traveling. Roy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Docker123 Posted October 17, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 17, 2016 If you have any existing electronic entry visas, they are linked to the passport number. Usually have to re-apply. Any international flights already booked, update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salacia Posted October 18, 2016 #8 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I remember the days when you had your passport stamped. Me too! What happened to that? Last time I asked for my passport to be stamped (Red Hook, Brooklyn), the agent looked at me oddly - Like why would anyone want their passport stamped? I don't know, is there some kind of security reason for not stamping passports??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hihilo Posted October 18, 2016 Author #9 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thanks for all the good responses and helpful advice.... YES-- thankfully I did 'tic' the option for the larger number of pages. By chance, I am leaving home on 11/8 for this trip, + with that being election day.......its mighty convenient to be told, almost hourly, with all newscasts, how many days I have left !
