The latest in the guests for the world cruise. The last update was back in March. Since then, son Stephen has requested joining me on the first segment from Ft. Lauderdale to Buenos Aires. Friend Maria, has requested joining me on the second segment from Buenos Aires to Valparaiso, Chile. Here is the guest list as it stands today.
Before I took my April transatlantic crossing followed by the Portugal river cruise, Maxine had gotten a list of visa requirements from Silverseas.
Reading through it, there appears to be four countries that I will be responsible for obtaining a visa. These four countries are Brazil, Australia, Sri Lanka and India.
Today, I applied on-line for a Brazilian tourist visa ($44.24USD) and an Australian Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA, $20AUD).
I tried to apply for both the Sri Lanka and India visas, but both countries required the applications to be within 90 days of arrival. We will dock in Columbo, Sri Lanka on April 13, 2020 and a few days later, in India. The 90 days prior to arrival will be in the second half of January, 2020, after the cruise begins.
I sent an email to Maxine asking her to find out if Silverseas has a recommendation on how to proceed.
