Dear Readers:
Passport Update:
It's official. For those that missed it last week, here is the latest: Passengers
returning to the U.S. from Mexico, Caribbean, Canada or Bermuda via a
cruise will not be required to show a passport until June 1, 2009,
thanks to a provision inserted into a Homeland Security Department
appropriations bill that extended the implementation of portions of
the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative. The rule to require
passports for passengers was scheduled to take effect in January
2007. According to Sens. Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Ted Stevens
(R-Alaska), the co-sponsors of the amendment, the legislation will
allow more time to perfect a system that will also make PASS cards an
available alternative to passports for land crossings at the Canadian
and Mexican borders. The bill was passed on Sept. 29; President Bush
is expected to sign it into law. The International Council of Cruise
Lines praised Washington's decision, while expressing support for
increased security: "The cruise industry applauds Congress'
efforts to increase security at our borders but to do so
reasonably," said Michael Crye, president of the ICCL.
--FAST SEARCH--
We have a new feature on The
Cruiseman Web Site. If you know where you want to
cruise from, just click on the "Cruise Port Search"
Icon. This will take you to a map of the US. From there just click
on the city you want to cruise from and you will get an updated
listing of every cruise scheduled from that port. Most of the
major cruise lines are in this system except for Princess, who, for
some odd reason opted out.
