Losing your Celebrity Cruises cruise boarding pass can be stressful, especially when your sailing date is approaching. The good news is that losing a printed copy does not necessarily mean you have lost access to your reservation or cannot board the ship.
Celebrity Cruises uses an Xpress Boarding Pass as part of its check-in process. After completing online or app check-in, the Xpress Pass can be accessed through your Guest Account and the Celebrity Cruises app. Celebrity also states that guests can view the mobile Xpress Pass in the app after completing check-in.
If you lose your boarding pass, the most practical solution is to retrieve the digital version or ask the check-in staff at the cruise terminal to look up your reservation.
The Celebrity Cruises Xpress Boarding Pass is generated after you complete the required check-in process. It confirms that you have successfully completed check-in and provides information used during the boarding process.
Celebrity explains that the Xpress Pass is available after completing online or app check-in. The mobile version can be accessed through the Celebrity Cruises app.
The pass is different from your passport or other required travel documents. You should still bring the appropriate identification and travel documents required for your particular cruise.
If you lose your Celebrity Cruises boarding pass, follow these steps.
The quickest option is usually to check your Celebrity Cruises app.
Sign in using the same Guest Account credentials you use on the Celebrity Cruises website. Celebrity confirms that the same login can be used for the website and mobile app.
Select your upcoming cruise and look for your check-in or Xpress Pass information.
Celebrity states that the mobile Xpress Pass remains available in the app after you complete check-in, regardless of whether you originally checked in online or through the app.
If you do not have access to the app, sign in to your Celebrity Cruises Guest Account.
Your Guest Account is used to manage your cruise reservation and check-in information. Celebrity says that guests who have already booked can log in to their Guest Account to access their cruise information.
If you completed online check-in, your Xpress Pass can be accessed through your account.
A lost printed copy does not necessarily require you to repeat the entire booking process.
Celebrity specifically states that guests who checked in online can view their Xpress Pass in the mobile app. It also says there is no need to print the pass on sailing day when using the mobile Xpress Pass.
Therefore, if you accidentally misplaced a paper copy, check your digital pass before traveling to the terminal.
If you previously downloaded or saved your boarding pass, check your:
Celebrity states that its boarding pass can be added to Apple Wallet. At the time of its current FAQ, Samsung Pay and Google Wallet were not listed as supported options.
A previously saved copy may be useful, but you should make sure the information displayed is current.
If your phone is lost, damaged, out of battery, or you cannot access your account, do not assume that your cruise reservation is lost.
Celebrity specifically addresses situations where a guest cannot access the Xpress Pass at the pier. Its guidance says that check-in counter staff can look up the reservation.
This means you should go to the appropriate check-in counter at the terminal and explain that you cannot access your Xpress Pass.
Keep your reservation information and required travel documents available so the staff can assist you.
If you cannot access your Xpress Pass at the terminal, Celebrity's check-in staff can look up your reservation. The important point is that the cruise line's current guidance provides a terminal-based solution when a guest cannot access the mobile pass.
If you need a physical copy, ask the terminal staff what options are available for your sailing.
The availability of particular printing or document services can depend on the terminal and sailing, so it is better to confirm with the staff rather than assume a specific procedure.
Your boarding pass is only one part of the boarding process.
You should bring the required travel documents for your cruise, including the appropriate identification.
Celebrity strongly recommends that guests bring a passport, and for some itineraries a passport is required. The cruise line also states that the name on the passport should match the name on the reservation.
Depending on the itinerary and applicable requirements, other identification documents may be accepted.
Before leaving for the port, check Celebrity's current travel-document requirements for your specific sailing.
A dead phone battery can create the same practical problem as a lost boarding pass because you may not be able to display your mobile Xpress Pass.
Celebrity directly addresses this situation and says that check-in counter staff can look up your reservation if your device battery dies and you cannot access the Xpress Pass.
To reduce the risk of problems, charge your phone before leaving for the port and consider carrying a portable power bank.
It is also sensible to keep your important travel documents accessible separately from your phone.
Yes.
Celebrity's current guidance says that the mobile Xpress Pass is available in the Celebrity Cruises app after check-in. The cruise line recommends app check-in because it can help speed up the boarding process.
The app also provides access to other cruise information and planning features.
If you have already checked in online, you can sign in to the app and access your mobile pass without necessarily printing another copy.
Losing a boarding pass and not having completed check-in are two different situations.
If you have not completed check-in, you need to complete the required check-in process before relying on an Xpress Pass.
Celebrity currently states that online check-in is available beginning 45 days before the cruise and until three days before sailing, while app check-in is available from 45 days before sailing until the morning of the sailing for applicable ships.
If you have not completed online check-in within the applicable period, Celebrity says you may need to complete the process at the terminal.
A physical printed boarding pass is not necessarily required if you can access the mobile Xpress Pass.
Celebrity states that the mobile Xpress Pass can be used during the boarding process and that there is no need to print it on sailing day when using the mobile version.
However, you still need the required travel documents.
The boarding pass should not be confused with your passport, identification, or other documents required for your itinerary.
If your cruise does not appear in your Celebrity Guest Account, first confirm that you are using the correct account.
Celebrity's FAQ says that if a current cruise reservation cannot be found in the Guest Account, guests can select "Add Another Cruise" and enter the reservation number for that voyage.
This can be useful if your reservation was booked separately or is not automatically displayed in your account.
If you still cannot locate the booking, contact Celebrity Cruises or the travel advisor who made the reservation.
If you notice the problem before traveling to the port, you have more time to resolve it.
Celebrity recommends completing check-in before sailing to make the terminal process easier.
If you are already at the port and realize that your boarding pass is missing, do not leave the terminal simply because you cannot find the printed document.
First, try accessing the mobile Xpress Pass through the Celebrity Cruises app.
If you cannot access it, go to the check-in counter and explain the situation. Celebrity states that its terminal staff can look up your reservation when a guest cannot access the Xpress Pass.
Have your travel documents and reservation information ready.
A missing boarding pass is different from an incorrect boarding pass.
If you notice that your name, reservation information, or another important detail appears incorrect, contact Celebrity Cruises or your travel advisor before arriving at the terminal whenever possible.
Do not assume that you can simply change important travel-document information at the port.
Celebrity notes that the name on your passport should match the name on your reservation.
You can reduce the chance of a boarding-pass problem by preparing more than one way to access your cruise information.
Save your Xpress Pass on your phone after completing check-in.
The app provides access to the mobile Xpress Pass and other cruise information.
Celebrity currently allows guests to add the boarding pass to Apple Wallet.
A digital boarding pass is not helpful if your phone has no power.
Keep your reservation number in a secure location. It can be useful if you need help locating your booking.
Do not keep your passport and phone in the same easily misplaced bag.
Open the Celebrity Cruises app or sign in to your Guest Account to access your mobile Xpress Pass. If you cannot access it at the terminal, Celebrity says check-in staff can look up your reservation.

Celebrity says you can select "Add Another Cruise" and enter the reservation number when a current cruise is missing from your Guest Account.

Losing your Celebrity Cruises cruise boarding pass does not necessarily mean you have lost your ability to board. If you have already completed check-in, the easiest solution is usually to access your mobile Xpress Pass through the Celebrity Cruises app or Guest Account.
If your phone is unavailable or your battery dies at the terminal, Celebrity says its check-in staff can look up your reservation.
Most importantly, keep your passport or other required travel documents with you, because the boarding pass does not replace them. Preparing your reservation information, travel documents, and mobile Xpress Pass before leaving for the port can make the boarding process much smoother.
