sunonfire Posted October 1, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2023 We are traveling with another couple in separate cabins. We are linked for dinner service. Is there a simple way I can do their check in so that we get the same check in times? I thought there used to be a link for check in. You had to have the booking number, the last name, the ship’s name and sail date. I normally do my check in at midnight. I think the last time I used the Celebrity app. I checked on my booking to see if I can link but I didn’t see any place to do that. Thanks.

gold1953 Posted October 1, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2023 You have to do your own check in so they need to do it for themselves either on the app or by logging in on the website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruise Posted October 1, 2023 #3 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I believe I had added my friends booking to my list on the website so we could do shore excursion bookings. I'm pretty sure both reservations then showed up on the app when I logged in. Have you tried adding it using the Add Another Cruise link on your account?

Sox Fan Cruiser Posted October 1, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 1, 2023 I had 6 cabins all linked together and could see everyone’s reservation. I could not check in for them as they need their passport info and such but I was able to pick everyone’s arrival time so it was the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSAtlantic Posted October 1, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) I can always link our travel partners by using their booking number, name and birthdate. This enables me to get us all the same arrival time and then they finish their own checkin. I can book dinners and excursions for all. However, our next cruise, one party shows as a group booking and I can’t make reservations for both. Check in is not for 2 more weeks. The weird thing is neither of our TAs say we are booked with a group booking. Edited October 1, 2023 by SSAtlantic New reply Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunonfire Posted October 1, 2023 Author #10 Share Posted October 1, 2023 It worked thanks again. I saw that but I thought it was referring to other cruises that I booked. My friend’s reservation came right up. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunnysideup Posted October 2, 2023 #11 Share Posted October 2, 2023 What is the timing to select the port arrival window? Is it available as soon as checkin opens up on the app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruise Posted October 2, 2023 #12 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Yes which is 45 days prior to sailing. It generally opens at midnight in timezone of the ships departure port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sunonfire Posted October 8, 2023 Author #15 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Just an update. Last night I checked in my party on my computer using the Celebrity website. I had to complete the check in process completely to select a time. I only had my friends booking number. I was unable to get them a time. Then I went on the Celebrity app on my iPad and I was able to select a time for arrival for them with only their booking number. I wished I had known to use the app instead of logging in. The last cruise 2 years ago on the Connie we all had issues checking in with the app, We are all set. Thanks for the help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruise Posted October 8, 2023 #16 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Sorry should have specified that with the app you can directly set the arrival time and exit and fill in the rest later. On the website you have to complete all info prior to setting the arrival time. I use the app to do most of the checkin as it can scan your passport. I skip the photo as I have a stock photo I use for all sailings which can be uploaded, but only on the website. So I fill in everything that's easy to do on the app, then go to the web to do the rest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily I had copies of my passports etc but it did take much longer than I expected. Live and learn. I sent a reminder to myself re checking in on the app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never an issue with my group. And yes the app.can be wonky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 11, 2023 #20 Share Posted October 11, 2023 I checked in yesterday for our Nov 25 cruise out of Singapore - There was some inconsistencies in that the app showed opening for CheckIn on Nov 10 and Webpage showed Nov 11. Celebrity IT at the best. With the date line I was able to check in on Nov 10 (PDT) 10:AM which would equate to Nov 11 Midinight. I also selected arrival times for our friends who live in Sydney.
