Suprising someone with a cruise... how do we pull this off?
My father and I are planning on surprising my mother and brother with going on a cruise, but we don't want to tell them until we drive up to the ship area. We are planning on saying that we will be at this hotel (wont actually stay there), but is there anyway we can make sure the cruiseline doesn't call us at our house phone?

Book your cruise directly with the cruise line and not a travel agency. Tell the agent for the cruise line that this is a surprise for your mom and why, if it is a special event. If it is they will help you make it a memorable one for her as well.
There are things such as tickets and baggage tags that will have to be sent to you. The agent will work with you to send then to dads office or to a neighbors home.
You are going to need Passports or travel permits, just how your going to get one for mom is going to be a problem as she has to sign them in front of the person at the post office. There is no way around that.
Passports are required to leave and return here as well as to enter all countries the cruise lines visit. There is a less expensive travel permit/ID, can't remember the real name for it, that the cruise line can tell you about. Still mom has to apply in person for it. No way around it. The only thing I can think of is if you happen to be vacationing around the Canadian or Mexican border you need these things to cross those borders as well.
Other than that the cruise line will work with you to make this trip memorable for mom. Just tell them the what and why and they will take it from there.
Have a great cruise.
