CapeAliso Posted September 4, 2021 #1 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I have sailed to the Mexican Riviera twice on the Diamond Princess, but it has been many years ago. The Majestic is due in port at 11:00 am. What time, if I don't book a Princess excursion, can I anticipate making it ashore? I noticed that a Carnival ship is due in port at 10:00 am, but I'm not sure if that matters. I appreciate your input as I plan our day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LACruiser88 Posted September 4, 2021 #2 Share Posted September 4, 2021 It can take awhile to get ashore if not on an excursion. We usually do not attempt to go ashore for at least a couple of hours after we arrive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted September 4, 2021 #3 Share Posted September 4, 2021 If you are in a full suite or elite loyalty then you will have priority service. Then basically soon after you show up at the designated location. If not, a few hours. Also, tender occupancy could be reduced during the covid era. If you need to be one the first tenders out, show up well before 11am. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cr8tiv1 Posted September 4, 2021 #4 Share Posted September 4, 2021 @skynight, Glad they still have this Elite benefit. Now, how hard would it be to extend it to coming back to the ship? No cost, plenty of good will. Even if they just had a line for elites/suites...and let half a dozen board each shuttle. Wow...what a thought! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably because of the high number of Elites on the Mexico cruises. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1emerald1 Posted September 4, 2021 #6 Share Posted September 4, 2021 The last time I was in Cabo, which I think was 2019, on the Royal, the ship did not use its own tenders. They used much larger ones, which may have been provided by the port, not exactly sure, but definitely not Princess tenders. And did not have any problem catching one coming or going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
