U.S. citizens on homeport cruises (cruises that begin and end at the same U.S. port) are currently able to enter or depart the country with a state issued birth certificate with a raised seal and government-issued photo ID. While not required, AAA recommends traveling with an original, signed passport valid for 6 months beyond stay, and with at least one blank visa page for visa stamp(s).

Do I need travel insurance?

For your protection AAA highly recommends travel insurance. Pre-existing medical conditions may be waived with proper coverage only if travel insurance is purchased within 14 days of initial deposit. Other conditions may apply; ask your Travel Advisor. AAA recommends Allianz Insurance.

When can I book excursions?

Your AAA Travel Advisor is happy to help reserve your choice of shore excursions. It’s best to book them as soon as possible as they can sell out.

How many bags can I bring?

One suitcase per person will be allowed.  You may also bring a small carry-on bag.

Temperatures for Bermuda and Virginia in July average in the high 80s to low 90s with cooler mornings and evenings in the 60s or 70s. Casual clothes and comfortable walking shoes are recommended; be prepared for potential inclement weather.
