other personal vehicles. For travel within the United
States, a government issued identity card, such as a
drivers license is usually sufficient. For international

Without proper identification,
a passport and necessary visas you will not be permitted
to depart. It is your responsibility to verify your
necessary travel documents. See Passport
Requirements for International Travel for more information.
12.
AGE REQUIREMENTS - Proof of age may be required
by certain suppliers in order to qualify for discounts
or to be eligible for specified travel arrangements*.
It is your responsibility to disclose your age and date
of birth at the time of booking to be sure that you
meet supplier age requirements.
* For example, car rental companies
either do not rent to drivers below a minimum age or
charge an extra fee for younger drivers. Likewise, some
will not rent to drivers above a maximum age. Cruise
lines may require that an adult above a certain age
be assigned to each cabin. Hotels often offer discounts
to senior citizens (the qualifying age of which varies).
