All aboard in FLL for 3pm sailing?

[elaine5]

I just saw that our shops leaves at 3pm. Is last all aboard 1 or 2 hours beforehand? I don't plan to cut it that close--but want to build in time for traffic, etc.

One hour.

There was an OLD policy of two hours, but that has been gone for a number of years.

I wonder if it went away when the old style of muster drills went away.  With ships no longer needing to herd all passengers into one space at the same time to accomplish the drill I'm assuming that frees up some of the pre-sailing time.

Not really.  They start calling for people to check in at muster well before sail away.  They want to get underway on schedule.  For checkin and boarding I would arrive no later than 90 minutes prior to sailaway.  For port visit days 60 minutes will do
