artvlay Posted October 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 9, 2023 Taking a Jewel cruise next week and the earliest check-in times is 11:30am. Usually they start at 10am and I have a question. I am renting a car and would like to drop my luggage and then return the car and take a taxi back without schlepping all the bags into the taxi. Being that 11:30 is the earliest time slot, how early will I be able to drop the luggage to the port workers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clochette Posted October 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 9, 2023 I have dropped my luggage at 10 at Cape Liberty, that should not be an issue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveru621 Posted October 9, 2023 #3 Share Posted October 9, 2023 It's been my experience that a 10:30 arrival time is not offered, if at all, until late in the 30-day window. In either case, 10 AM luggage drop is probably OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what you are saying they didn't allow people to register until 11:30 yet you dropped off your luggage at 10? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallyitsmema Posted October 9, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 9, 2023 We have dropped luggage at Cape Liberty before 10 am many times. We usually get there between 9:30am and 10am, no matter what our scheduled arrival time. Just follow the direction of the port workers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no firm time. Normally it's 10:30 early check-in, but for some reason that arrival time isn't always offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted October 9, 2023 #7 Share Posted October 9, 2023 (edited) If you're in a suite your concierge may send you an email offering a suite luggage priority check in zone. On Liberty out of Cape Liberty (Oct 5th sailing) and we did...it worked out well. It was zone #6. Cabins were open at 1:00pm and our luggage was there just before 1:30pm. Our check in time was 10:30am and it was crowded even the suite line moved slow !! Edited October 9, 2023 by Ashland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drop off luggage then take rental to Avis/budget for return is about a 10 minute drive from cruise port. Then take Uber back to the port to check in and board. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
