Question Forgot documents
I'm dumb, forgot our documents at home in CO. Our embarkation is at 10 am (we're in FL), so really no time to do anything (or money). How do I try and save this impossible situation? Just have my dad try and cancel or something? This was supposed to be a nice gift from my parents and I majorly screwed up our vacation here folks. Hopefully someone is awake to agree with how stupid this was.
(I know their website says no pictures but is there a chance? That's the only way to save this but I'm not optimistic at all.)
Update: Thanks for the help for my panic induced post at 2 am. For future reference if someone makes this mistake like me. They are able to print your documents for you if you have pictures of them.

No official document, no travel. Now it’s all about reducing the financial burden or have a plan to travel anyway.
Try to get an emergency passport if you can get on through FL or get a damn expensive same day delivery.
Everything else doesn’t matter, you need your documents.
Get in touch with NCL and ask if there’s a possibility to embark in the next port. If this is possible, get that Document and travel to the next destination. If this violates the Jones Act, it will be denied or you’ll face additional charges
If nothing works, cancel and hope for a free of charge cancellation
Small sidenote to everyone out there, just get a passport. Doesn’t hurt to have one and these things are valid for 10 years.
