2. If flying home, and TSA did a secondary screening with me, I wouldn't want to hassle with providing evidence that I got the $10,000 in cash from a cruise ship casino.
1. True, that could be nerve-racking,
but maybe not a lot more so than coming home to find
$5000 in presidential $1 coins sitting on the doorstep.

2. Not sure you would HAVE to provide evidence,
but do you want an even MORE intrusive search?
If you buy the "casino cards" from princess website you
would have a receipt for all the cards to be cashed.
