CruisinNewbie11 Posted August 31, 2018 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2018 I am booked on Epic for 10/2818 and staying on for the TA on 11/4/18. Neither set of boarding documents has a boarding time to choose from, other than it says boarding time begins at 12:00. Is that the norm for European cruising? Normally, it will give you a choice. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phissy Posted August 31, 2018 #2 Share Posted August 31, 2018 We received email yesterday that the embarkation times for reservations are all messed up. Asked to please go into My NCL and reprint docs with new times listed. The time will be listed as you get closer to cruising. Unless.... you are in a Suite or Haven or are Plat or higher. Then you have priority embarkation with no set time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted August 31, 2018 #3 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Boarding starts around 11:30 (maybe a bit earlier). We show up at the port around 10:30 and board early for our cruises. During your first cruise, you will be given instructions on B2B boarding. Assuming that you'll be off the ship doing some touristing in Barcelona before starting the TA.

kokopelli-az Posted September 2, 2018 #4 Share Posted September 2, 2018 We're on the Epic the end of Sept. Our docs say boarding is at noon and to not arrive at the pier more than an hour earlier. This is out of Barcelona. Is this really true? That boarding out of Barcelona is not until noon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is standard boilerplate text on every boarding pass. The ship will start boarding before 11:30. You can arrive whenever you want. We normally arrive at 10:15-10:30 so we can get through security and checkin before the crowds show up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
