​
Travelers Checks - There is a $900 daily limit for cashing travelers checks at Guest Services.
​
ATM - All Royal Caribbean ships are equipped with ATMs. A transaction fee applies, along with any fees charged by your financial institution. Please note that ATMs often run out of money when casino groups are onboard, so it's advisable not to rely solely on them.
​
Credit Card Advances - You can withdraw up to $5,000 USD per day, per guest, using your Onboard Expense Account linked to a credit card. The credit card advance fee is waived for casino group members. The withdrawal will appear as an Entertainment Charge, not a cash withdrawal. Bank fees are subject to change without notice.
​
Cash - You are welcome to bring cash onboard. However, we advise against carring large amounts of cash while traveling for safety reason.
​

Travel Documents Requirements
United States Citizens may use a passport that is valid for six months after your cruise or birth certificate (hospital birth notices are not acceptable) along with a government-issued photo ID.
United States Permanent Residents may use an Alien Registration card (Green Card).
Non-United States Citizens will need a valid passport and, in some cases a VISA.
Non-United States Citizens living in the United States will need a valid passport along with your Alien Registration card.
​​
Important Note:
Cruise lines have a strict zero-tolerance policy for misssing or unacceptable citizenship documents. If you fail to provide the proper documentation, you may be denied boarding without any compensation.
​​
Name Change Considerations:
If your name has changed since your documentation has been issued (e.g., due to marriage or divorce), you must update your documents to reflect your new name or provide an offical supporting document, such as a state or county marriage license, divorce decree or legal name change document. All documents must be in the original or notarized copies.
If you are using a combination of identification (e.g., drivers license) and a citizenship document (e.g, birth certificate), both documents must match the name on your reservation. Be prepared to provide supporting documentation. Any discrepancies may result in delays or possible denial of boarding.
​
Players Travel strongly recommends traveling with a valid passport.
