Can Someone On Probation Go On A Cruise?

In most cases, people on probation are not allowed to go on cruises due to restrictions on international travel and leaving their county or state. However, as someone with a felony on their record, they can still go on a Royal Caribbean cruise, but they should be aware that the specific cruise does not go to a country that restricts entry to felons. If the person is on parole or probation, they need to check with their probation officer to see if going on a cruise is allowed.

For registered sex offenders, they should check with their country’s laws, as Canada is one country that will not allow someone with a conviction for driving while under the influence. Probationers are rarely approved, even for domestic purposes. However, felons can go on a Carnival Cruise, but they must adhere to the visa and documentation requirements of each country the cruise ship is visiting.

The issue is ensuring they have permission to travel from probation. Most parole places major restrictions on movement, and likely the answer is no. If you have travel restrictions in your probation, it is advised to seek permission from your probation officer. In some cases, you may be required to show a government-issued photo ID (such as a drivers license) in addition to your cruise ship.

In summary, technically it is possible for someone with a felony record to go on a cruise, but it must be addressed with their probation officer. It is important to be upfront about any travel restrictions and to consult with their probation officer if you are on probation in Florida.
