I have our passport renewal forms completed and ready to mail. We cruise November 2 on Mariner, visiting Coco Cay, Nassau, and Cozumel. I wanted to renew, since our passports expire 5/7/2024, so almost exactly six months later. My husband read an article this morning about renewals taking up to six months. Should we wait and renew after the cruise (and break the six months rule) or send them in and risk travelling with only a BC and DL?
