new_cruiser_75 Posted November 25, 2021 #2 Share Posted November 25, 2021 My earliest was a 10 am arrival window with us onboard enjoying a drink on lido before noon (no special status or FTF). This was Feb of 2020 on the Panorama out of Long Beach, CA. I've sailed out of PC once, nice drive over from Orlando, but long with a few tolls (almost didn't have the change$ for them as we don't have tolls over here in the pacific northwest and forgot 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knights on the Beach Posted November 25, 2021 #3 Share Posted November 25, 2021 We had a 10:30 - 11:00 arrival time for our Magic cruise out of Port Canaveral in August and were on the ship by 11:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markmom18 Posted November 26, 2021 #4 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I had 10:30am boarding for my Miracle Halloween B2B. My boarding Group was called about 10:40. 😁😁 🛳🛳 Bobbi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelikea Posted November 26, 2021 #5 Share Posted November 26, 2021 I just signed up for the 10:30 am boarding time for the Dec. 9 Sunrise cruise out of Miami. It's the earliest I've been able to maybe get on board, and we're doing it with no kids this time, so should be pretty straight forward and far less stressful 😃 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondello Posted November 26, 2021 #6 Share Posted November 26, 2021 Guests on a B2B will be onboard before all others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aplmac Posted November 26, 2021 #7 Share Posted November 26, 2021 It was a charter cruise, out of Barbados, Caribbean Princess. We were on board by a little after 9 a.m. as I recall The ships was deserted. I went up on top deck and got pics with no-one around! It was a bit strange.....

thewynn Posted November 29, 2021 #9 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) Our check in is in 2 weeks, what time does online check in start? I’d like to get an early boarding time and hoping I don’t need to get up at 12am Eastern to do it. Thanks Edited November 29, 2021 by thewynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotscrapz Posted November 29, 2021 #10 Share Posted November 29, 2021 (edited) 1045 with my 1st drink in hand at the Havana bar 😃 Last month were in line at 1pm for our 130 appt time which was met by the time we got to the area where they checked and we’re on 230ish. Hoping I get an earlier time next month, especially with earlier flights. Fyi - just a hold member so no special boarding privileges … Since I won’t be in hot humidity - which l hate - only tolerate for beautiful beaches and cold drinks- it’s not a big deal to us, I don’t stress. Ideally I like to be able to eat at the Italian place that is not crowded day one, but they close at 230.

Hasn't been a problem. You'll still get a reasonably early slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csm5986142 Posted November 29, 2021 #12 Share Posted November 29, 2021 We had a 10:00 - 10:30 (group A01) embarkation appointment on the Sunrise a few weeks ago, but the ship was not cleared until about 10:45 (so we did spend some time in the waiting area). At about 10:45 they called for guests in suites to board, but almost immediately called for groups A01 and A02 to line up after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Cruiser Posted November 29, 2021 #13 Share Posted November 29, 2021 On our September Sunrise cruise we boarded at 10:40. Since becoming platinum, 10:35- 10:50 or so has been the general range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmukid87 Posted November 29, 2021 #14 Share Posted November 29, 2021 I have always planned on being on between 11:30-12:00 and have never been let down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
