JanMD Posted March 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2023 We can check in on the celebrity web page next week. My question is is that at midnight (similar to Royal Caribbean) or 8 am? Anyone know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrhdhd Posted March 22, 2023 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2023 Midnight ET, but no need to do it then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarKay525 Posted March 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) Hi - according to this recent thread, it depends upon the location of the departure port, as check-in is at midnight in the departure location. I just checked-in on Monday for a May cruise and, for the first time, did it using the app. Much faster than doing it via the website, if that is an option for you. Enjoy your cruise.

As stated above, it is midnight or a few minutes after at the departure port, e.g. sailing out of Florida would be midnight Eastern. If you use the Web site you will need to fill in all the passenger information to get to the Arrival time section. However, if you use the Celebrity App, you can go straight to Arrival time, get your arrival time you want and then come back any time afterwards, up to two or three days before sailing and complete the passenger information section.

j3000 Posted March 22, 2023 #6 Share Posted March 22, 2023 (edited) I guess I didn't check-in for our upcoming cruise as soon as I got the notice to check-in. Did it maybe 3-4 days later. Is there any advantage to checking-in as soon as it's available??🤷♂️ Edited March 22, 2023 by jargey3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I picked the earliest available to us: 12-12:30, which is fine by us. Is that a "bad" i.e. "busy" time, or what...🤓 Edited March 22, 2023 by jargey3000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RV Queen Posted March 22, 2023 #14 Share Posted March 22, 2023 We have transfers from the airport to the pier. Did we have to request board time if we have transfers? Or do they just take you to the bus as soon as you get luggage and check in with Celebrity Rep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boarding rarely begins before 11 AM (and then only, maybe, a few minutes before). As mentioned, things probably will have calmed down by the time you arrive unless boarding has been held up. Things probably are at their craziest from around 10:30-11:30. Regardless, also as mentioned, check-in and boarding goes very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will not affect when you board the shuttle. It's all about when you would arrive to the terminal for final check-in. Just do your best to estimate when you would get there via the shuttle. It's really no big deal if you are off a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
