renysmom Posted September 10, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 10, 2023 We have checkin, later this week, and I just wanted to verify, we are able to skip uploading selfies and passports and come back and do that later, correct? I want to do check in for our entire group, to grab our check in time, but won’t have all that with me as it will be midnight When I’m doing this. Thank you as always for the help.

Yes you can grab a time without doing everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I just completed check-in for our Celebrity cruise and I was able to snap the selfies later and upload them. As long as you can all snag the same boarding time, you're all set and can upload any and all travel docs later. That's provided you're using the app, like I did.

smokeybandit Posted September 10, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 10, 2023 For clarity, the app is the only way to grab a time slot and then come back later to finish. But if you prefer, you can finish the check-in on the website even after using the app to grab a time slot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted September 10, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I used to upload a picture of my passport picture. Never once took a selfie. Now I started to skip by the picture. So far no one said anything. I mean as in I dont upload a picture at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I stopped. I've heard a lot of people say this. I always upload a picture of me and one of my wife and we've never had to re-take one. Not a big deal either way of course; I just tend to do anything possible pre-cruise that I can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe your passport photo looks suspicious. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were taking a new picture at the terminal anyway, so no sense to me. ..doesnt matter, just saying it's not required to check in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were taking a picture of a picture, of course they are going to take a new picture at the terminal. We have taken our pictures with the app for years and have never had our picture retaken at the pier. It isn't a requirement, yet, so if having it taken at the pier works best for you, stick with that plan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week cost me all of 10 seconds extra and was still second onboard after Key/Suites 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You must be a better picture taker than me. Every single cruise my uploaded picture has to be retaken pier side. I'm not going to bother anymore.

I use the website through my phone browser and just crop pictures I already have... usually from past cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also only check in on my desk top and can put in the info I want and finish it later...no problem. I actually only use the app once onboard for sometimes checking the menu but that's about it...I'm not a fan of apps and will avoid them whenever possible.
