chiguypaul Posted November 28, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I have an 11:30 arrival time for the Wonder of the Seas on the Dec 31 2022 sailing. I grabbed that time pretty early after the times were opened. I was expecting 10:30 or 11 to be available. Given that the Christmas sailing the week before is probably massive, do you think that 10:30 and 11 arrival times are not available? Or did I likely just not get those slots? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks keep checking as sometimes they will randomly make more earlier time slots available and you could edit and change yours. May not happen….but I have seen it several times….😎😎 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Suites and Key and some C&A tier levels get priority so it may be that they were all selected already.

mo&fran Posted November 28, 2022 #5 Share Posted November 28, 2022 Keep in mind that while you may get an earlier checkin time, you will probably not get to board at that time. You will sit in the terminal till it is your turn to board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So are you saying that if I come at 11:30 and boarding has already started, I should be able to walk right on in a typical scenario? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one gets priority on selecting arrival times. It's all first come/first serve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done a lot of B2B cruises, and we would see many new passengers who have checked in and will be waiting to board. That group will board after the B2b. If you arrive at 1130, that group will have already boarded, and new passengers will board after they are checked in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most ships in most ports typically start boarding by 11AM, so any check in time after that should lead to immediate boarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
