RickT Posted September 2 #1 Share Posted September 2 I’ve been trying to check in for a couple days now. The cruise is showing on my app but when I click check in the app just spins (iPhone and iPad). I’ve deleted the app and reinstalled it with no change. Unfortunately you cannot check in using the webpage and I do not have a device compatible with the Android app. Before I call Celebrity I’m wondering if anyone else has experienced this and figured out how to check in?

jelayne Posted September 2 #2 Share Posted September 2 Why can’t you check in via the webpage? We had a cruise last month that just wouldn’t be recognized by the app. I checked in on the website. Both the app and webpage seem to be not functioning well this weekend. Rather than sit on hold to talk to a rep that likely can’t fix the problem I would wait till late tomorrow when staff should be back from the long weekend and some of the glitches may be corrected.

That's how we've normally done it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickT Posted September 2 Author #4 Share Posted September 2 There is no option to check in on the website. On my reservation page it says if I am unable to check in using the app to click the link, print off the page (it’s a page with a full summary of my cruise) and bring it to the pier to check in at boarding. I’ve called Celebrity and they say it’s been reported a number of times by other people and they have opened an IT ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted September 2 #5 Share Posted September 2 (edited) Very unusual as we have always and only checked in by way of the PC/laptop/tablet website planner - never on the phone app as that in our experience is inconsistent. We then use the app on board. Whatever you are experiencing is not normal and hopefully will be resolved quickly.

jelayne Posted September 2 #6 Share Posted September 2 Hopefully it will get fixed tomorrow and you will be set. Enjoy your cruise 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VitaminSea53 Posted September 2 #7 Share Posted September 2 I am having the same problem. I have the option to check in on the web or the App but I get to the end of the questions and it says “ Sorry, we hit a snag. Try again later”. The weird thing is when I log into my account on line it says “View Boarding Pass”. When I click on that it takes me back to the Check In questions.

Cat4158 Posted September 2 #8 Share Posted September 2 Same for us - on the app and web pages. I contacted Celebrity and they asked for screenshots to pass on to the IT department. Still waiting for some feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a holiday in the US today, so I would not have high expectations for having the many website/app issues that are occurring this weekend to be resolved today.

Rare Jim_Iain Posted September 2 #10 Share Posted September 2 (edited) Curious if you are within the 21 days prior to the cruise. Even though your cruise shows in the app it will not activate check in until that time. The app should show the date. You should be able access your booking on the Celebrity Website (not app). If so just go in and grab a check-in time - You can come back anytime in the App and complete checkin up until 48 hours prior to cruise.

Check-in normally opens 45 days out and edocs and luggage tags at 30 days out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before you get to that stage it say “Sorry, we hit a snag. Try again later”. The App says “Check in available” but when you click it, it does not go anywhere. My cruise just opened for check in today but others (on other cruises) say they have been trying for days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like a glitch for the cruise if others are having the same problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your help. They have not changed the boarding time. If you are unable to check in prior to boarding day just show up as you normally would. We have always checked in to the terminal early in the day to be able to board, drop off our check in stuff, and leave the ship to spend the day in Old San Juan, returning to the ship in time for dinner. As posted earlier I would also try to check in via the pc/laptop/tablet website planner as an alternative. That is what we always use and then use the app on board. Never had an issue with that.

Pentops6524 Posted September 3 #19 Share Posted September 3 I am having same issues (i phone) and the last three days, including today I am unable to check in . I called Celebrity yesterday and they told me it was a known issue and to try again in a few days. The message I am getting is check in has checked out , check in at the Port. My cruise is a month away so I have plenty of time to retry this. I am US based if this makes any difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you tried checking in on the planner instead of the app on a device other than your iphone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pentops6524 Posted September 3 #21 Share Posted September 3 @leaveitallbehind yes I have tried through the website login on my laptop too, thats just a doom loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickT Posted September 3 Author #22 Share Posted September 3 I may have been premature in stating I could check in. I was able to access the check in page and entered my photo and other information but when I tried to finish it doesn’t progress. The X just keeps reloading. Cruise is 2 1/2 weeks away so will keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
