Answer 1

edit--oops! i just noticed you said you were going with your friends parents. in that case, yes, if you are not going with your parent or legal guardian, then you need a note from your parents saying that you can go.

wait...are your parents coming or not? if they are, then you don't need a not; but if they aren't, then you do.

Answer 2

I would think you would be able to go without a note. IDK.

Answer 3

THE CORRECT ANSWER IS  YES, you do need a permission slip signed by your parent(s).  This is from the Royal Caribbeans' web site:  

" Q:   What if I'm traveling with a minor and I'm not the parent or legal guardian?

A:   Adults who are not the parent or legal guardian of a minor traveling with them must present an original notarized letter signed by the child's parent(s), authorizing the adult to take the child on the specific cruise, supervise the child and allow emergency medical treatment to be administered.

Please note: An individual's age on the date of sailing determines his or her status for the entire cruise vacation. Royal Caribbean International does not accept reservations for student groups. Please consult a travel agent for Royal Caribbean's group policies."

Answer 4

If you are leaving the country, not only do you need I.D. and Birth Certificate, but you need notarized permission from your parents to leave the country with another family.

Answer 5

You say you are going on a cruise with your friend and their parents, and your parents are coming. You don't need a permission slip as you will be with your parents.

If I have read this wrongly and you are going without your parents, then Tinkertoy is correct, you need a notarised permission slip.

Answer 6

I really didn't follow what you wrote so i will assume I understand.  I took my then 12 year old niece with us a few years ago, besides the required documents we also had the parents write and sign a note that stated we could authorize any medical treatment if needed, I guess it also said that we were relatives etc.  Ask your travel agent or call the cruise line they will have the exact info to include.

Answer 7

If your going to pass the border then yes you need a note because it is out of the country. Along with your passport and some sort of I.D and birth certificate.

Answer 8

i think you need to have your parents sign like a form allowing you to go out of the country

Answer 9

Your parents would have to give permission (at least verbally) for you to go on the cruise with your friend.

Your parents would also have to sign a consent form in case you need any medical care. The form would allow your friends' parents to give permission for a doctor or hospital to provide anything you need medically in case of an emergency.
