Carnival Cruise Line uses an E-Documents system similar to airlines. Ninety days before the cruise, you’ll receive an email with your unique Carnival booking number and a link to Carnival’s website.
Online check-in opens 14 days before your sailing and remains available up to 24 hours before departure. Guests who are unable to complete online check-in will still have the option to check in at the pier on departure day. However, all Old School Cruise guests are strongly encouraged to check in online and PRINT their boarding pass in advance to streamline the boarding process at the terminal.
Temperatures along Baja California in May range anywhere from 70-85 degrees. Traveling on the ocean the temperatures are a bit cooler.
For the ultimate cruise vibe, we suggest packing lightweight, ‘vacation mode’ clothing to keep you comfortable and stylish. Grab a few swimsuits, flip-flops, sandals, or deck shoes for the poolside fun, plus sneakers or your dancing shoes for our live performances. If you’re up for a workout or sports, bring along your fitness gear too!
With concerts and activities happening both indoors and out, it’s smart to pack a few layers and light rain gear—just in case the ocean breeze gets cool or a little misty. Don’t worry, though, we’ll have cozy hoodies and long-sleeve shirts available in the online Merch Shop open soon!
Be sure to bring your camera gear, chargers, and extra memory to capture every unforgettable moment. And for the essentials: pack your sunscreen, lip balm, and maybe some earplugs. Get Ready to rock the waves!
We STRONGLY recommend that you hand-carry all your travel documents (passports, birth certificates, airline tickets, etc.) medications, jewelry, and any other personal items that you may need in a separate carry-on bag. You should not put these items into checked luggage as they could become lost and prevent you from boarding the ship. Also, your luggage may take a few hours before it is delivered to your cabin.
To ensure a safe and secure environment, The Old School Cruise and Carnival prohibit certain items on board, including weapons, candles, irons, alcohol, and other dangerous goods. All luggage is subject to security screening, and any prohibited items found will be removed and disposed of without compensation. Please review our list of Prohibited Items before packing your suitcase. For more details, refer to Carnival Cruise Lines’ policy on prohibited items.
While at the ports in Long Beach and Cabo San Lucas, MX, we recommend contacting your cellular provider to confirm service availability and rates.
Once at sea, we suggest putting your phone on airplane mode to avoid roaming charges. If you wish to stay connected, Carnival offers a variety of WiFi plans, allowing access to social apps like Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and Messenger, as well as full access for email, banking apps, and more. Further details and pricing options will be available after you receive your booking number.
