What is a good time to plan on arriving to check in, etc???

Boarding begins at appx. noon. This is assuming that the ship arrived on time and no problems arise with immigration. This is the case in the vast amount of sailing but problems do occur regularly.

 

 

Ok, here is our story. On January 21, 2007 we left our house in Tomball Texas at 9:50 am. We arrived at the pier at 11:10 am. It was the usual zoo, but I dropped of my wife with our luggage and managed to extricate our van from the pier and drive the three blocks to EZCruise parking. While I was doing so my wife found a porter, gave him our checked bags and his tip, and found a bench to wait with our carry-ons. I parked and walked the three blocks back to the pier, found her and proceeded to check-in. This took all of 10 minutes at most and we were seated at 11:30 waiting for boarding to begin. Boarding began on this sailing at 11:50. We were in our cabin at 12:10 (I know because we had a bet when we left the house) and eating lunch a few minutes later.

 

This was our fourth cruise from Galveston and all four have gone the same way. (knock wood) If you have any further questions I'd be happy to answer as best I can.
