Plant Posted January 14, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Yes, but you should be back at least two hours before sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silvery Seas Cruiser Posted January 14, 2008 #4 Share Posted January 14, 2008 When I was on Liberty of the Seas on embarkation day last summer I overheard a young woman ask a crew member how she could get off the ship because she wanted to do some shopping in Miami. He told her once she was checked into the ship she couldn't leave it. I don't know if he was right or mistaken or what. I know the young woman did act incredulous. I just figured that once you went through immigration, passport check and security checks, you were suppose to stay on board such as in an airport for an international flight.

paul929207 Posted January 14, 2008 #5 Share Posted January 14, 2008 Yes, we have gotten off several times. Just make sure you are back on time & take your cruise card with you. If you come back late, be sure to have your camera with you. You will always treasure the picture of the back of the ship as it sails away :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonaCK Posted January 14, 2008 #8 Share Posted January 14, 2008 If you are leaving from San Juan, your leave time isn't until 10pm, correct? I believe that you can leave the ship after you check in - I believe it's treated like a port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pris993 Posted January 14, 2008 #9 Share Posted January 14, 2008 We got off the ship on embarkation day, shopped in the port area in Instanbul, with no problem. Like others say, take your cruise card with you and a possibly a photo id too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
