Boarding pass

[doones2]

Is my embarkation form the same as my boarding pass?  My e tickets arrived with health questionnaire, embarkation form and luggage tags.  No boarding pass

[Ferry_Watcher]

Boarding passes would have a bar-code so it could be easily scanned by the check-in agent.  It is the quickest way to bring up your embarkation info to get you on the ship quickly.

Thank you. The embarkation form has a bar code on it.

Yes it is, bar code upper right hand corner.

On MSC your actual ‘boarding pass’ is your cruise card (room key) which you receive at checkin. This will be scanned at the gangway to go aboard. This is different from some cruise lines where you cruise cards are in your stateroom. Depending on when you checkin you will be given a boarding card number for sequential boarding. Once open boarding is called you may board the ship immediately.

I had the same question and called MSC. The website is very clumsy. There was a button to email e-ticket or download boarding pass. I clicked on the download boarding pass button and it did not work. I was confused if the e-ticket was the same as the boarding pass, and they said, “yes, same thing”. Not sure why they even show a button to download boarding pass!

How do I get my e-Ticket?

Your booking is confirmed

Stateroom has been assigned

Your cruise does not depart within 20 days

E-Tickets are only available within 20 days of your cruise departure. Please check back once your cruise is 20 days away

Thank you! All guest information has been provided

Go to Web Check-in

 

Send to your e-mail

 

This is how we got our eTicket before 20 days.

Login your account.  You will see the above info and also there is a space that already filled with your email address then hit send to your email.  You will get the ticket before 20 days.  Ours is actually 30 days out and got it today  We have tried the other ways (download) but did not work.

eTicket is not a boarding pass per se, like other cruise lines, notably Disney. Yes, it has a barcode that helps at checkin, but it’s not essential. You will board the ship with your cruise card. What it does have that’s important are your luggage tags and your complete booking details. Always take a copy of your complete booking details to document your onboard credit and any pre-purchased excursions and special requests. So, yes try to download and print your eTicket.

I believe left side is “yes”, right side is “no”. To be safe, I wrote “Yes” and “No” at the top of the columns (where it should have been printed).

Thank you that is so helpful. We had fraudulent activity on our credit card they changed security code and I used this card to register. Will I be able to correct details at embarkation or on ship? I hate to hold on phone .and they say you will need to confirm credit card on ship. What do u think?

You will have no trouble registering your new credit card once on the ship.

This is the top of page 2 of your documents.  They scan the code and give it back to you.

Below that are pics of the kiosks where you register your credit card.
