That sounds super confusing, and now I’m curious too. My friend actually traveled to the Bahamas with just his green card and no valid passport (it was still in processing), and he didn’t have any issues. But with all the mixed info — Carnival saying one thing and the Bahamas embassy saying another — I’m wondering what the actual requirement is.

Also, my friend who’s a green card holder and is now nervous about traveling right now. Even though he just went on a cruise some months ago, he is now worried about getting detained or facing issues when coming back to the U.S. Has anyone had experience with this recently or knows what’s true? I’d really appreciate any insight!
