Finally on board. Costa do a very different system when it comes to embarkation. All the security is done exactly the same as the other lines but you do not register your credit card or get your seapass as you get on. When you get on your cabin is ready so you need to go to your cabin to get your seapass. When you get to your cabin the door is ajar and your seapass is on the bed. Your photo is taken while coming aboard and is linked to a bar code which is on your seapass and the embarkation form. During the cruise you can register your credit card at various places throughout the ship on special card reading machines. Another thing that you will find on the bed is your Muster Drill Card which is surrendered at the drill and proves you have attended.
