Passport validity

Hi all we are on the the Disney Dream 29 October, my passport expires 24 March 2019, UK gov site seems to indicate I need 6 months left on passport but Bahamas website seems to indicate passport needs to be valid for length of stay unless travelling to a country which has the six month rule. Has anyone cruised recently with less than six months left on passport
Thank you

I haven't, but lots of people have. They just want to know that you won't get stuck in their country in you become poorly etc.

Enjoy your cruise

The cruise lines do operate differently from the airlines. For instance P+O insist on 6 months on your passport to sail anywhere including to France. It won't let you register without the 6 months.

I had an issue with Disney too! You can't check in on line at all with less then 6 months left! I did get it sorted eventually but it took a few phone calls and i was very panicked! This was for a med cruise which I didn't need 6 months left for!
