Princess Check-in @ The Pier (what’s your MO?)

[UpcountryTravelers]

We usually leave the hotel about 11:00 AM. (NO WAY would we EVER arrive same day as departure. That's dangerous!) Depending on shuttle time, we're usually aboard in time for a nice lunch and get the cruise started!!

We always are in the first 25 to board. We like to get to our room drop things off then start our vacation.

Priority check in or do you arrive at 5 AM?:D

It doesn't matter to me. I'm retired, don't hurry or rush for anyone! :) I've been cruising since 1982, not a priority. When I board, I get a salad, glass of wine at the International Cafe, watch everyone chase around trying to decide what to do first!

 

I don't go to buffet or dining room, as I always have early dining. On my TA from Barcelona in Oct., it was the fastest I've ever boarded. I didn't plan it, just happened. I don't usually go early but hotel check out was 11:00, taxi came at 11:30, got to the port, took 15-20 minutes to board. I usually arrive later.
