Our eDocs for our 13 March cruise showed up on 25 February. Nothing so far for our 20 March cruise.

We got ours on Day 20, the day after we finished check-in on Day 21.

Thanks for all the feedback. Looking forward to getting back to sea on Oasis April 17th

Different cruises but same thing happened to me. Got docs for March 4 cruise but never for the March 11. B2B on same ship, same cabin. I won't be needing the luggage tags anyway but still seems strange not having the papers.

They're back up on my reservation!

Typically final payment (on 7-night and longer cruises) is 90 days prior to sailing.  Typically on line check in is available 45 days prior to sailing, with docs typically being available around 30 days prior to sailing.

 

I say "typically" as with the previous changes to final payment date to 30 days prior to sailing on current US itineraries, you can both check in and potentially receive docs prior to final payment.  

 

That of course will be changing soon as cruises through May are now at 60 days, and with the likelihood that the usual 90 day final payment will return thereafter making your statement correct once again.

We are about 44 days out and they have arrived 😆

Was able to check in and got boarding pass.  When do luggage tags become available?

Usually after final payment but others have said earlier.

Today is day 30 before our 2 Apr EN cruise and no documents.  It was paid off over a week ago.  I can print luggage tags, but no documents have shown up.  Honestly, the only reason we ever wanted docs was for the luggage tags.  Most of the docs are just unneeded.  I think for our Nov 28 2021 HOTS cruise, we got docs on day 29.

You are correct with the typical 90-day prior to sailing final payment deadline.  But the exceptions I noted are with the current reduced 30 and 60-day periods in place.  In particular with the 30-day situation, check in and docs can be issued prior to  (or at least with) final payment.  But that will all change soon as they revert back to 90-days final payment terms with post June cruises.

If you can print luggage tags then you should have edocs as they are the last page of the docs.  Are you looking on the website or app?  I only look at website for docs.

How can you print luggage tags then?  Luggage tags are in the eDocs.

Final payment was made in January, cruise is April 11th.  Wonder if it has anything to do with the fact that it was an assigned cabin --- although I have already received cabin assignment.

Actually if you go to view boarding pass, the luggage tags are there.

No, the luggage tags showed up if you go to view boarding pass.  In the past we've always gotten them in docs only but now they are available the way I said.

Agree. I did our check in 45 days prior to our sail date. I was able print off our SetSail passes. Luggage ags were not available at that time. Luggage tags became available to print 31 days (12 Feb.) from our sail date. Our eDocs for our 13 March cruise showed up on 25 February by Email. No eDocs for our 20 March cruise. No biggie as I never print the eDocs.

When we printed our boarding pass, the "print luggage tags" was disabled. But that was at 45 days out.

Yes, it was disabled until today (day 30) for us. Now it's an active link.
