lsw9658 Posted November 3, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 3, 2022 We are on the Meraviglia Nov 6 and received a text from MSC that said “Begin Check-in Time: 10:30AM End Check-in time: 11:00AM. Does that mean we can go to the ship (not necessarily board) at 10:30-11:00? Veteran cruisers but first time on MSC. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammer52 Posted November 4, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 4, 2022 Yes, That is the time they want you to check in. You can come a little later if you can't make that boarding time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sealynx Posted November 4, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2022 You can certainly go to the terminal earlier, and there will be a chance that you can also board earlier, but that is no guarantee. They'll want the leaving passengers off first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They never checked us against any time window. That being said, Sealynx offers good advice. On US sailings, actual boarding will very not likely occur before 10:30.

JT1962 Posted November 4, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 4, 2022 On my recent cruise on the Divina from Port Canaveral, they had two lines prior to security - “Arriving During Check-In Window” and “Arriving Prior to Check-in Window”. I arrived during my check-in window, so I don’t know what difference there was for the people who arrived prior to their check-in. From the time I dropped my bags at the curb until I was at the buffet was less than 15 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lsw9658 Posted November 5, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted November 5, 2022 We’re Yacht Club on this trip and we’re also not ones that feel like we have to rush on the ship. Is there a separate line for Yacht Club we should look for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proceed through security and head to the YC lounge through a priority lane. Have a great time. YC is the best value at sea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
