Visa applications are through the government of the country you’re requesting entrance; the process varies by country. There are services available to help assist with procuring a visa. You can ask the cruise line or your travel professional for more information.
Money matters
Most cruise lines have gone to a cashless system – which is why they obtain your credit card number upon embarkation for you to charge all the “extras” to your onboard account. When it comes to tipping, some cruise lines include gratuities in the cruise fare, other cruise lines will automatically add them to your onboard account.
