Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted February 18, 2017 #1 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I cannot find staggered check in for one of my sailings, my PVP checked and doesn't understand why....has anybody else have this problem of trying to choose their staggered check in time only not to have the option of choosing?

Shaded Lady Posted February 18, 2017 #3 Share Posted February 18, 2017 It could be that the port/ship you're looking for hasn't rolled out staggered check-in yet. Since you said 'one of your cruises' I'm going to assume you've done it for your other cruises and know where to look in your online check-in. If not, post back and we can tell you exactly where you'll find it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted February 18, 2017 Author #4 Share Posted February 18, 2017 My port has the staggered check in time, the October cruise is Jacksonville...yes, I did it for our May cruise out of New Orleans. Thank you for the help but curious whether anybody else had this problem of not given the option of choosing their staggered check in time and what they did and what happened.

Maybe your Oct. cruise is still to far out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepeka Posted February 18, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Maybe your Oct. cruise is still to far out. I was thinking the same thing, it's still eight months out, but I would have thought the PVP would be able to see that in the Carnival res system. :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryred Posted February 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted February 18, 2017 There are a few reasons that you would not be able to pick a staggered check-in time for a port. 1) It's too far out for a particular port. Some locations or even certain sail dates from the same departure port you can pick a time as soon as the cruise is posted but other times in an odd sense of fairness leave this off until 3-6 months before the sail away date. 2) You indicated that you are using the Carnival transfer system from the airport. Since space is sort of reserved on the shuttle already roughly for the time the flight number you indicated is scheduled to arrive and you have little to no control over when the shuttle arrives at the port, they leave this as an open check-in time. 3) A good old glitch in either your computer or Carnival's system. Try the traditional clear your history and cookies, then closing the browser down, doing any updates, then going back into your cruise manager perhaps under a different browser. If that does notwork call the IT number on the Carnival website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
summersigh Posted February 18, 2017 #8 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Our choice for staggered checkin doesn't show yet either - Magic December 2017. We did online checkin but nothing yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuff_Said Posted February 19, 2017 #9 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Staggered check in just barely showed up for us last week for our July Pride cruise out of Baltimore. I think it all depends on the ship, the port, the date, or maybe a combination of these. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CalaDragonflyLady Posted February 19, 2017 #10 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I have found that some things don't show until I am paid in full for my cruise. I was able to choose my boarding time for an October 2017 cruise that I paid in full last year to get the $200 obc deal, but I can't see it for a 2018 cruise that is not paid for yet.

Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted February 19, 2017 Author #11 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I chosen my time for staggered check in for my may cruise back in October....I am not using a Carnival transfer system, in fact we staying days before our cruise in New Orleans.....there can't be a glitch in my computer system because I was able to choose my staggered check in for my May cruise.....perhaps the port of Jax doesn't post the staggered check in until closer to the cruise.

riclop Posted February 19, 2017 #12 Share Posted February 19, 2017 When is your cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajaxisarobot Posted February 19, 2017 #13 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'm inclined to go with maryred's #1 answer. The check in time didn't show up on my Vista cruise when I first did my online check-in, almost a year before the sail date. I wasn't concerned because I'm getting married on embarkation day so I will have priority boarding. I'm 77 days out now and just went in yesterday to edit my onboard expense account and the check-in time option is there now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Cruisegirl6 Posted February 19, 2017 Author #14 Share Posted February 19, 2017 The cruise is October 21....it could very well be too early and as a few of you said, they may have different schedules showing it depending upon the cruise port/ship and or the sail date...its frustrating, because I just want to choose and hoping to get early boarding.

sixb0nes Posted February 20, 2017 #15 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I cannot find staggered check in for one of my sailings, my PVP checked and doesn't understand why....has anybody else have this problem of trying to choose their staggered check in time only not to have the option of choosing? This happened for my Splendor cruise (Miami port). We booked and paid in full in Sept for our upcoming March cruise. No check in time even though staggered port. TA called carnival 3 times and was told they were out of times to select. Around a month or so ago, somebody mentioned that they had the same problem on their Splendor cruise and it just showed up one day. Sure enough, I logged in and it was now available to select. I suspect this will happen to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Souper Cruiser Posted February 20, 2017 #16 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Staggered check-in for our March 19th cruise on the Pride didn't become available until about 2 weeks ago. It was around 45 days prior to embarkation. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
