Carnival Rolls Out E-Document Cruise System

A new electronic cruise document system has been rolled out by Carnival Cruise Lines providing guests with the same travel documentation and information typically available with traditional cruise documents, all in a secure, easy-to-navigate Internet portal accessible on a 24/7 basis.

According to the company, Carnival’s electronic cruise documents are available to guests any time after final payment is made. If they prefer, guests can opt to have the traditional paper documents mailed to them or their travel agent approximately 30 days prior to their cruise.

“The innovative new paperless cruise documents system is in tune with Carnival’s philosophy to make maximum use of technology to enhance our guests’ Fun Ship experience,” said Roberta Jacoby, Carnival’s senior vice president air/sea operations and corporate training.

“In addition to unparalleled convenience, security and efficiency, our new e-docs system provides our guests with personalized and customized information for each booking. We do realize, however, that some of our guests still prefer traditional cruise tickets and, therefore, we will offer a choice of either electronic or paper documents,” she added.
