Rare tofubeast Posted April 24, 2007 #1 Share Posted April 24, 2007 I have sailed on RCCL once before and I don't remember waiting all that long for our luggage. The same goes for on Celebrity. I just have read several posts where people say they didn't get their luggage in their room till near dinner. Is that the norm now on RCCL? What time did you get your luggage on day one? Thanks!

cb at sea Posted April 24, 2007 #2 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Our 1st cruise took about 4 hours to get our bags. Our last cruise, we got most of our stuff within 3 hours--but one bag didn't arrive until sometime during late seating dinner. Moral of the story: If there is something you MUST have, carry it on with you! It's pretty much a crapshoot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted April 24, 2007 #3 Share Posted April 24, 2007 We had all our bags before muster drill, it was wonderful. We spent the time right after sailaway unpacking and then we were done for the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty much a crapshoot! On our Mariner Cruise in November, we had our suitcases by 3:00 p.m. It appeared as though everyone else did too. Quick poll of my friends have shown similar results on recent cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FitzLA Posted April 24, 2007 #5 Share Posted April 24, 2007 We have always gotten ours early...way before dinner (late seating) but on Freedom, some friends of ours didn't get theres until sometimes during the late seating. They were there when they got back from dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J&G Posted April 24, 2007 #6 Share Posted April 24, 2007 We've sailed RCCL twice - once we had our luggage before 3 and the second time (even though we boarded by 11:30) not until 5:45 - just as we were leaving for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuridog Posted April 24, 2007 #7 Share Posted April 24, 2007 to receive your luggage. On Legend in February, we boarded at 12:30 pm--received one suitcase around 3:00 pm and the other one didn't arrive until 8:30 pm. In October on Rhapsody, we got both cases within an hour of boarding. At any rate, it is always good to put a change of clothes in your carry on bag and perhaps a swimsuit, if you want to take advantage of the pool.

isujim Posted April 24, 2007 #8 Share Posted April 24, 2007 90% of the time by 4pm prior to muster.........sometimes though we may get a bag or two that is a stray for some reason.......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex_Jen Posted April 24, 2007 #9 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Have received bags both early and late. First cruise on the Serenade, we had them some time after 4p.m., but not terribly late. We didn't board until 3p.m. so no complaints. On the Jewel, they came much later. Didn't have everything until just before late seating. On the Adventure last year, similar results. This past year on the Adventure, all of my bags were there by 3p.m. Be ready for anything in my opinion. Jen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snausman Posted April 24, 2007 #10 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Last month on Brilliance we were on the ship at noon. We had our bags by 2pm. Unpacked and ready to go by 3. Loved that ship! Laura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted April 24, 2007 #11 Share Posted April 24, 2007 We have gotten our bags from early (1 P.M.) to late (10 P.M.) Strangely, ;) , the 1 P.M. delivery was the cruise we were in a GS. :D Usually it's somewhere in between, more often before dinner than not.

Pumbaamd Posted April 24, 2007 #12 Share Posted April 24, 2007 Carol, you've done quite well. Evidently, you are not trying to smuggle any booze on board. Good girl! Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
