FTTF priority tender question

[girli565]

How does this perk work? Is it just access to earlier tenders than those who didn't book FTTF/platinum/diamond (like an 8:30am tender when everyone else can start boarding at 9am) or is it that whenever you show up for a tender you won't have to wait for your number to be called? I want to sell this to my hubby so I want to understand it completely. Thanks!

It's like a front-of-the-line pass. Go to Guest Services and they'll escort you down.

When we used it last year in HI, we went down to guest service desk and they escorted us to the next tender, past all the others in line. I don't recall being early, but then I wasn't in rush to get off. It was defiinetly a nice perk..and I don't think I even used it to its full advantage. Being able to drop your bags off in your room and board early are also nice perks IMHO.

In Cabo on the Miracle, we went to Guest Services when we were ready to debark on the tenders. They had us go to a nearby lounge and in a couple of minutes a member of the crew came and got us. He took us down back stairs to the front of the tender line. Very convenient with no waiting.

 

Another great reason for FTTF is the separate line at Guest Services. Came in very handy when we needed it.
