G&TQ Posted December 31, 2015 #1 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I am sure this has been asked but I am unable to find the threads. When is the earliest we can check in? Port is Tampa When will our cabin be available? Does Royal have a program like Carnivals Faster to the fun? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boarding usually begins between 11am and noon, sometimes earlier. Edited December 31, 2015 by clarea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havingfun2010 Posted December 31, 2015 #3 Share Posted December 31, 2015 I am sure this has been asked but I am unable to find the threads. When is the earliest we can check in? Port is Tampa Generally speaking - 11:00 you can be on the ship. When will our cabin be available? 1:30 Does Royal have a program like Carnivals Faster to the fun? RCCL does not take $60.00 from you to get on the ship 10 minutes faster. Most people have a very small carry on bag and do not lug cases of soda or water around but rather just check their bags. They also manage their lines more efficiently so no need to jump to the front to save a few minutes (and pay for it). If you want to get on faster you can sail multiple times and you will be rewarded with boarding faster if you arrive at 10:30. Arrive later and you will just walk on first come first serve.

Merion_Mom Posted January 1, 2016 #4 Share Posted January 1, 2016 No FTTF on Royal. Staterooms available around 1:30pm. Check-in starts 10:30am-11am. Boarding usually begins between 11am and noon, sometimes earlier. Isn't it (almost) always 1 P.M.??? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molsonschooner Posted January 1, 2016 #5 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Isn't it (almost) always 1 P.M.??? :confused: that has been my experience in my limited number of cruises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodycruising Posted January 1, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) We have had a couple later than 1 pm, and about 1.20 or 1.30 pm. Better to think 1.30 pm and be pleasantly surprised if it is a little bit earlier. I know it has never been before 1 pm in my experience.

Parrotheadtoo Posted January 1, 2016 #7 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Admittance to your cabin depends on the ship but falls between 1-130p. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted January 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) Isn't it (almost) always 1 P.M.??? :confused: That had been our experience for years, but lately it seems to be moving past 1pm for us.

Firefighterhoop Posted January 1, 2016 #9 Share Posted January 1, 2016 Isn't it (almost) always 1 P.M.??? :confused: Carol, yes for most ships it is still 1. a few have gone to 1:30. I believe the Enchantment was 1:30 the last time I was on it, and a few more are too... Jewel and Navigator I can say for sure are still 1pm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emory2001 Posted January 1, 2016 #10 Share Posted January 1, 2016 My cabins have usually been ready slightly after 1:00 but before 1:15. I think only once has it ever been 1:00 on the dot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare island lady Posted January 1, 2016 #11 Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) Carol, yes for most ships it is still 1. a few have gone to 1:30.

Jewel and Navigator I can say for sure are still 1pm Freedom was posted as 1:30 when we were on a couple of weeks ago, but cabins were not ready until 1:40. Boarding was early at just before 11:00 am. As mentioned, I believe it is the ships that are different, not really the port as far as cabins being available with each ship having a different crew.

Plunkebe Posted January 1, 2016 #12 Share Posted January 1, 2016 We cruised on Oasis in December. Boarding began around 11:45. Our cabins were ready at 12:45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
