LuCruise Posted December 20, 2021 #1 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Wondering if you need to arrive at your check in time? Or is that basically your earliest time? We may have a change of plans and won't be able to be at the port at our specified check in time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellsop Posted December 20, 2021 #2 Share Posted December 20, 2021 It's "earliest", but there's a provision for "we may make you wait outside for a while if we get a rush", basically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HicksRA Posted December 20, 2021 #3 Share Posted December 20, 2021 It’s a crapshoot. Two weeks ago at Galveston, we were motioned in as soon as we walked up and no one ever looked at our check-in times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pretzlaff Posted December 20, 2021 #4 Share Posted December 20, 2021 (edited) Last week on Harmony nobody checked times and it was all very, very fast. 4 people in the outside line for covid doc checks. 20 people in line for the 5-6 metal detectors. Nobody in line for the dozens of check in agents. No wait to board. This was at 11:45. 20 minutes from parking car to the Windjammer. show up when you want.

LuCruise Posted December 20, 2021 Author #5 Share Posted December 20, 2021 Thanks. As long as your check in time isn't "you are late, you can't come". We can either leave our time as is (and may actually arrive 1-2 hrs later) or move our check in time to 1-2 hrs after we would arrive to the port...meaning we would have to wait anyways.

More and more reports that checkin times have gone the way of the Dodo bird.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pratique Posted December 21, 2021 #7 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I am trying to check in for a cruise next month. The system is not providing any check in times to choose from, and thus won't let me complete online check in. Anyone else had this problem?

It's not that you can't board, but they do caution that you may have to get worked in later if they are busy. Regardless, you will not be turned away. I saw all that somewhere on RC's website. I think it was around the FAQs. Keep in mind that, as much as we don't like to admit it, Cruise Critic and our experiences are not authority. Especially with omicron causing some consternation, don't assume that they won't follow their rules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried using the iOS app on my phone and the website on my laptop and same problem, no available times are listed. We're just going to show up whenever we get there and deal with check in then. I tried doing it online and I have lost patience. They are going to take new photos, check our ids and vax cards, etc. anyway.

I called and they put in a request with the online check in team to look into the problem. If it is not fixed by the time we arrive we were told to be at the terminal at 11:00 am to complete check in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
