I suppose I will have to make sure that immigration doesn't mind if I stay, but maybe I'm a citizen there or have a visa that allows me to remain indefinitely. Would the cruise line take action against me when they find out I didn't reboard? | |

In comparison, ports from which cruises depart have all the required facilities to bring in "new" passengers : ticketing, check-in, alcohol check-in, luggage handling, customs/immigration, waiting room... There also is the compulsory ship evacuation drill done before departure. | |

| Feb 28, 2014 at 0:59 | comment | added | SpaceDog | @gerrit Freighter travel is my other option, although it's difficult to find out stuff on-line originating from Manila. I could do old school and get friends of friends to find out. My issue is that this would be the first stage of a long journey but the time I'll have (due to work, money, etc) is limited and freighter travel seems to be slow. I don't really want to burn a week of my travel time on a ship just to get to the mainland. My other option is private boats, but I'm not really a boat-person so I'm not sure if they'd want to have me aboard. | |
