98Charlie Posted August 24, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 24, 2023 What is the best way for 2 separate reservations to check in and get the same arrival time? We're both Platinum. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare PrincessArlena'sDad Posted August 24, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 24, 2023 We just did this. If you add the other booking to your account, you can check in one after the other, literally seconds apart. I had to check 4 cabins in, and I got 10am for all 4, and was done while the clock still read 12:00. Also I didn't have to close out the check in window. It had all bookings own at once. It is a little confusing how it is organized, though, when there is more than 1 booking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my mom and mine's cabin linked with my 2 DDs but because my DDs are Gold their Online Checkin time was two days later than mine. It all worked out and our two cabins had the same check in time, 10:30am. Of course, I would have waited with them if their time would have been later than mine. I needed their help lugging in all our champagne!😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Haljo1935 Posted August 25, 2023 #7 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Since it seems some things can be bypassed and completed later, what are the minimum things one must do to get a boarding time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are listed on our booking page as "Additional Cruise Companions". Is that going to work? Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had read on here that you had to close out one cabin then click to open the next. This wasn't the case for me. I opened it from the booking and order details page, not the checklist.

You can click right on arrival time without doing anything before. It's very simple. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may try that for our Thanksgiving 2023 cruise.👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie I have not read of anyone else being able to work on more than 1 cabin without closing and clicking the link for the next cabin. Are they just listed as cruise companions or can you also manage their booking? (Do you see the inactive link to check in like for yours) you definitely would need that. In order to check then in you definitely have to be able to manage their booking. You can manage their booking even if they have the booking in their own account also. It can exist in both accounts. To copy what I did, open the check in window for the platinum cabin from the booking and order details page. Maybe it'll pull the other cabins with it? I don't know. If you try it, please report back! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For instance, Sheff I clicked arrival time, the 4 cabins were are there to select, one after the other. When I clicked passenger details, I had all 8 of us one under the other, not broken down by cabin. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
