Im 14 years old and my friend is inviting me to go on a cruise (either Sept., Oct., or Nov.) for her birthday. Im mexican and I live in Florida, and no, i dont have a green card, but i do have a passport and a visa. We want to go to the Bahamas, Jamaica or Mexico, but I dont know if they're gonna ask me for something.

I have no idea of how the thing is. If i go to Mexico, I probably won't have a problem until i get back. Im afraid something happens and my parents won't be there.

I need some information of what I need for each place..and know if I CAN go..before I make some money. Is there any possibilities?

Please help me!!

  1. Your PARENTS need to take the responsibility of checking this out.  it depends on what KIND  of visa you have.   They would need to check with U.S. immigration to be sure your visa would allow you back into the U.S.  I would think so...but  they need to ask to be sure.


  2. In addition to the proper documentation, also be sure that you have your parents written permission for your friends to take you out of the country.  You will need to have this signed and notarized (You can usually have the notary at the local bank do it for a few dollars.)  Additionally, be sure your parents give the family permission to treat you in the case of an emergency.  You may also want to make sure you buy health insurance in case anything should happen on the cruise.  (At your age, medical insurance for a trip will be less than $20, as long as you don't have any pre-existing conditions which need to be considered.  I am 29 and it only cost me $18 for health insurance for my 10 day trip.  This is great for anyone travelling, by the slight chance you would ever need to be airlifted off of the cruise ship.  Otherwise, it could run over $50,000 just for the helicoptor ride.)
