Rare Essiesmom Posted October 9, 2013 #4 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Can't answer for Royal, but not on Cunard, Carnival, Princess, Celebrity, Holland America, NCL, or Louis Lines. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hstergo Posted October 9, 2013 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2013 No picture on your Royal Caribbean seapass card.. Your picture shows up on a screen when they slide it through the scanner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiserking Posted October 9, 2013 #6 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I don't think any of the major lines print the pictures on ID cards anymore, they used to. But, it's a security measure now. There will be dozens of opportunities for photo ops once you're aboard don't worry. Every time you twitch there's someone with a camera to capture the moment. It's a fun pastime stopping by the picture gallery before or after dinner and perusing yours and your fellow cruise pals pics. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SingleDad636 Posted October 11, 2013 #8 Share Posted October 11, 2013 Cruise lines don't print your picture on the cards anymore due to HIPPA regulations HIPPA covers the privacy and the protection of your medical information in hospitals, doctors offices & other medical entities. It has no bearing on the cruise industry (well, except for the cruise lines on board medical department) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langley Cruisers Posted October 13, 2013 #10 Share Posted October 13, 2013 But they will call you by name which I've always liked. And sometimes when you come back from port, they say "Welcome Home!". It's too fun. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langley Cruisers Posted October 14, 2013 #16 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I guess that's how some get to 10,000 posts Aww. You know what? Your comment here brought tears to my eyes. Just so you know, I have cancer and I am in chemotherapy treatment right now. One of the few bright spots is coming here, reading and dreaming about cruising, hoping to go on another one day when I am healthy, and helping people out when they ask questions. I absolutely don't care about my post count. It does nothing for me so why should I care? I don't. I'm sorry that you think that's the only reason I post here. Bless you. Somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed this morning. :) Yeah, I'm a little confused too but oh well. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruising grandma Posted October 15, 2013 #20 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I've been on over 60 cruises on 6 different cruise lines since 1995, and NONE of them have printed a photo on seapass cards.:confused: So, obviously this has nothing to do with 9/11, homeland security, or HIPPA.

Same here ... per our signature lots of different cruise lines for MANY years ... never have had the photo on our cruise card. Think about it: They give you your cruise card to board .... BEFORE they take your picture. LuLu ~~~~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Medic5emt Posted October 18, 2013 #24 Share Posted October 18, 2013 If your RCCL ship has updated tech your photo will show up on the muster drill scanner as well. Freedom of the Seas had this tech, and Explorer still uses paper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
