azcacruzin Posted January 14, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Celebrity says 2 p.m. but in the past we have always boarded much earlier than what they say. Have never left from San Juan either so I wanted to be sure. Thanks for any advice!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ontario Cruiser Posted January 14, 2011 #2 Share Posted January 14, 2011 We have always gone early around 11am and waited and were usually one by noon even in San Juan a couple of years ago on the Summit. Have a wonderful time. We will be on her Feb 26th Ontario Cruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seacruise9 Posted January 14, 2011 #3 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hi, I cruised on the Summit in late November. I boarded the ship at approximately 12:30. There was no line at this time and I immediately boarded the ship. Have a great cruise! Chuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexsarasota Posted January 14, 2011 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2011 We plan on boarding the Eclipse before noon tomorrow. After reading all the reviews of Bistro on 5, we are planning on having lunch there immediately. Since we are driving from sarasota we are parking at United Parking. $75 instead of $140 at the POM for the week. They will not let you park until after 11:30 so that the cruisers disembarking can get their cars. I have read mixed reviews but the majority who have used United were pleased. We have our fingers crossed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozark74 Posted January 14, 2011 #6 Share Posted January 14, 2011 You can board earlier than 2:00 but your room may not be ready yet. Last year we boarded about 1:30. Our cabin was ready but some people were waiting in the lounges for there cabin to be finished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C 2 C Posted January 15, 2011 #9 Share Posted January 15, 2011 The practice lately on some ships and some decks is to close the "fire" doors so that early arrivals cannot access their rooms. We have generally been able to board between 11 and 12 except for some "interesting" times which delayed the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
