Is a passport required for Bahamas Florida Cruise

i don't believe you need a passport to go to the bahamas but if you have to fly out for emergency reasons you would need a passport to get back into the u.s. so it is always a good idea to have one.

I think with any international travel a passport is strongly suggested and makes it easier to pass through customs; should you not have a passport, you could use your original birth certificate with raised seal, along with a government issued photo ID.

If you are a US citizen then you don't need a passport. You will need your birth certificate and some form of photo id (Drivers Lic). If you are a foreign citizen then you will need to carry your passport.
Bahamas doesn't require a visa but you will need your passport/birth certificate when you get back to US.
It's always preferable to carry your passport. In case you miss your ship in Bahamas and you have to fly back to US, then you will need a passport.

It is always advisable to check the consulate website for rules regarding visas especially for tourists not from USA.
You can contact NCL or your travel agent and they will have up-to-date information on the documents required for travel.

It sounds like that would be ok, but I am certainly not an authority... If I were you I would contact NCL directly through their toll free number to get confirmation directly from them.

Can you add a guest to your stateroom after paying the deposit?

I'm planning a trip at the end of June 2013, but I'm not sure who else is coming yet. I don't want to miss out on the promotions that are going on now so I'd like to book the cruise ASAP. Can I add people on to my stateroom after paying the deposit?

Yes, you should be able to add guests. I have done it in the past. However, you may want to check with NCL or your travel agent to make sure the rules haven't changed.

Can you bring food off the ship into port?

We are going to Berumda and they say it's expensive. Can I bring some snacks or food off the ship into port?

No. The port authorities do not allow food to be taken off the ship or on the ship.
The food is not expensive. We were able to find local restaurants (not the "touristy" restaurants) and they were reasonably priced. They accept US currency.

Yes. You are allowed to buy alcohol and bring it aboard the ship.
When you board the ship, the ship security will confiscate the liquor and hold it for you. You can collect the bottles on the last night of the cruise.

Alcohol purchased in ports will be held on your return to the ship, you will receive a receipt for your items, then on the last evening of the cruise you can pick up your alcohol at a designated location.

The best and easiest way is by taxi; as of this writing the flat rate is $52 plus tolls. The trip should take you roughly 60-90 mins depending on traffic.

Since you are going to have a lot of luggage the easiest way will be a taxi. However if you have a large group you may want to contact NCL and have them arrange for ground transportation from the airport to the pier.

Yes. You are allowed to bring your own sodas, juices and water. You can check them or carry them on board. The products must be sealed or risk confiscation by the security. Make sure you tag them with your bag tags so that they are delivered to your stateroom along with your luggage.

NCL is testing an unlimited alcoholic drinks package on some ships. We were on the Pearl a couple of weeks ago and they had the drinks package available on the ship. I'm sure the drinks package will be extended to all the ships before you sail in Nov 2013.

No. Due to fire hazard issues, the staterooms do not have clothes iron and you are not allowed to bring irons on board the ship. However, you can request the Guest Services Desk or the cabin stewards they will be happy to bring you an iron and ironing board for a few hours.

No, but you can ask your stateroom attendant if there is one available for you to borrow for the day. The ship does offer full service laundry service for a fee.
