jbobst Posted May 5, 2016 #1 Share Posted May 5, 2016 Our cruise is still over two weeks away on the Liberty of the Seas (May 22nd), but I just got a text from Royal Caribbean about "important information regarding your sailing..." They said "Please note that boarding for your cruise will now take place from 11:00am to 3:00pm. Liberty of the Seas will now depart Port of Galveston at 4:00PM". I guess I don't see any different information here than what was already published. Is this just an informational thing or is there actually a change in time? I think the departure time has always been 4pm and same with the boarding time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted May 5, 2016 #2 Share Posted May 5, 2016 It's probably just a friendly reminder. 4:00 seems early. I think most other ports have the ships leaving at 5:00 - 6:00. Maybe they just want to remind you that your ship leaves earlier than those at other ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gambler Posted May 6, 2016 #3 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Think we were supposed to leave at 4:30 originally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Doe Posted May 6, 2016 #4 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Does that mean that we arrived until 11:00? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGBCruiser Posted May 6, 2016 #5 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Does that mean that we arrived until 11:00? It means boarding begins at 11:00 a.m. which is really early! They usually post boarding time at 1 p.m. in Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Cruizers Posted May 7, 2016 #6 Share Posted May 7, 2016 (edited) Our July 2017 sailing lists a 4:30 PM departure. We plan to arrive around 11 AM to board, it will be our first time out of Galveston. Edited May 7, 2016 by Desert Cruizers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackshirt Posted May 7, 2016 #7 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It means boarding begins at 11:00 a.m. which is really early! They usually post boarding time at 1 p.m. in Galveston. Really? We're on the June 19 sailing and checkin is 11-3 with departure at 4:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Doe Posted May 7, 2016 #8 Share Posted May 7, 2016 What time should you arrive to board close to 11:00? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted May 7, 2016 #9 Share Posted May 7, 2016 What time should you arrive to board close to 11:00? Thanks I'd plan to arrive around 10:30 - 10:45 am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spookwife Posted May 7, 2016 #10 Share Posted May 7, 2016 It means boarding begins at 11:00 a.m. which is really early! They usually post boarding time at 1 p.m. in Galveston. Both times we sailed out of G we were on board having lunch before noon. Boarding time has always been 11. But all aboard time was 330. With sail away just after muster at 430. This is a shift to the left for departure so the ones who usually arrive late need to know they have less time to fiddle around Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
