FAQs

Booking dates and access to book will be announced later once full festival details are announced, but join the pre-sale now if you're interested!

Guests who register for the pre-sale will get priority booking times and receive an assigned Earliest Booking Time via email. This group is assigned in the order they signed up. Note that there will be multiple groups of new guests - those who sign up before the initial deadline and then those who sign up after.

Once the pre-sale ends, the general public will be able to book.

Please Note: Being a part of the pre-sale does not guarantee that staterooms will be left for purchase when it’s your time to book.

While on board, think casual and practical. Weather can range from mid-40s to the 60s. Be prepared for cool and misty conditions, particularly in southeast Alaska. A good bet is to bring layers, including a lightweight fleece jacket, raincoat, hat, and gloves. Sturdy walking shoes or boots are also a must for most port day excursions!

Laws that regulate the necessary travel documentation are subject to change, and it is your responsibility to be aware of what is required for travel. View the latest information from Norwegian at ncl.com/traveldocs. Below are recommendations based on the current U.S. government policy, but this information could be updated without notice. If you have any questions or concerns about identification or passport requirements, please reach out to our guest services team for more information.

Please note: The name on your reservation must match the name on your passport or you will need to provide an original copy of proof of change of name (marriage license, etc).

U.S. Citizens

Sixthman highly recommends all guests travel with a passport valid for at least six months beyond completion of travel. Although a passport is not required for U.S. citizens taking cruises that begin & end in the same U.S. port, traveling with a passport enhances your disembarkation experience, as delays may be expected upon your return to the U.S. if you do not have one. Additionally, passports make it easier for you to fly from the U.S. to a foreign port should you miss your scheduled port of embarkation, or need to fly back to the U.S. for emergency reasons. If you do not have a passport you can use an original or state certified copy of a Birth Certificate as listed below.

The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) allows U.S. citizens (including children) sailing on cruises that begin and end in the same U.S. port to travel with one of the following WHTI compliant document:

• Valid U.S. Passport
• Passport Card
• Enhanced Driver's License (EDL)
• Original or state certified copy of a Birth Certificate PLUS a government-issued photo ID*
• Certificate of Naturalization PLUS a government-issued photo ID*

*A government-issued photo ID is also required for all guests, including children 16 and over. For more information, a complete list of WHTI-compliant documents or to obtain a passport application, visit travel.state.gov.

Non-U.S. Citizens

All guests must carry a valid passport, and if necessary, a multiple entry visa is required for entry into the United States (i.e. B-2 Visitors Visa), or a visa waiver. Please be sure to check with the proper agencies and authorities (such as your local immigration office) before you sail because we can't board you without the proper documents. Travelers from the 38 Visa Waiver Program (VWP) countries* must have a machine-readable passport to enter the U.S. without a visa. All VWP travelers are required to obtain an electronic travel authorization prior to boarding a carrier to travel by air or sea to the U.S. under the VWP.

If you are not a US Citizen and are uncertain that you have the correct documentation please call US Immigrations at 1-800-375-5283 to be sure your identification will be satisfactory.

Alien Residents of the United States holding an Alien Registration Card (ARC or "Green Card") (Form I-551) may travel to Canada, Mexico, Bermuda (see Visa Restrictions on Bermuda) and the Caribbean with just their valid ARC and Proof of Identity. However, it is recommended that these guests also carry their passports from their country of citizenship if available. In some instances, ARC holders may still be required to have sailing permits and/or visas to enter countries Norwegian Cruise Line visits in these areas. Please note that travel anywhere else in the world requires a valid passport from the country you are a citizen of and subsequently subjects you to any documentation, visa and health requirements of all countries visited.

What if I do not have proper identification?

There is no Jedi Mind Trick around this, you MUST have proper identification to be permitted to board the ship. If you arrive at port without proper identification, while Sixthman will assist you in contacting the appropriate agencies, we cannot guarantee that you can successfully attain proper identification from the port, and this may result in being denied boarding without compensation. And this makes us sad.

Birth Certificates

Since 2001, Sixthman has set the stage for moments that make life rock, serving over 300,000 guests on over 150 unforgettable vacations on sand and at sea with their favorite artists, athletes, actors, comedians and brands. These carefully curated, intimate events bring non-stop performances, artist collaborations, in depth panels and Q&As, fan-artist activities, museums and overall truly immersive experiences that celebrate community and change expectations of what a vacation can be. Sixthman’s domestic home port of Miami typically brings escapes for guests to dream destinations in the Virgin Islands, Belize, Honduras, Mexico, and The Bahamas. This time, we're exploring Alaska!

Alaska will offer an incredible amount of fun on land. Some options include visiting Mendenhall Glacier or kayaking with whales in Juneau, learning about Alaskan wildlife and local culture in Sitka, visiting Craigdarroch Castle for tea & biscuits or touring the Butchart Butterfly Gardens in Victoria. Plus, plenty of fresh salmon, crab, and delicious seafood!
