Viking - Can we drop luggage off early

[Lemonlee]

Going on our first Viking cruise this fall - Paris to Normandy.  On the day that we embark, my daughter wants to schedule a tour of the Louvre that morning. We will have our luggage with us as we are checking out from our hotel.  Viking lists the embarkation time as 12 pm - would we be allowed to drop off our luggage early?  Or should we not try to cram in a morning tour?

Yes, no problem.

 

There is an embarkation buffet lunch available 12:00- 15:00. Viking will put your bags in your cabin when it becomes available, which shouldn't be later than 15:00 and will most probably be earlier.

 

The lunch will also be served on the last day should you have a late departure.

Thanks Pontac. We would want to drop our luggage off as early as 8:30 am. Would that be a problem?

Reception is staffed 24/7. 

 

There will have been guests on the cruise just ended that have already departed. Others will be having breakfast or departing.

 

It's a bit of a crazy time as guests have to leave their cabins and there will be groups of departing guests bags. So leave your cases with the crew to put in a safe space, don't add them yourself to a pile 

 

Ensure you have fixed your Viking luggage tags to all the bags you leave; they have your cabin number on so staff know where to take them
