cathalane Posted February 9, 2009 #2 Share Posted February 9, 2009 You just need to have all of your stuff ready and be able to bring it off the ship on your own (not need help carrying it down any steps, etc.) and then you can be the first group to dis-embark...

You wait till they call your floor during self assit then you get off the ship, I did this last week we were the last floor called and still was off by 8:30am, just walked right off, no lines Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess more and more people are doing it this way... I much prefer self-assist although when I'm packing, I have to keep reminding myself that I intend to be able to use it!!!

crazycath Posted February 9, 2009 #5 Share Posted February 9, 2009 They did last week on the Paradise, but it went very quick and like I said no lines, just walked off the ship. Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazycath Posted February 9, 2009 #7 Share Posted February 9, 2009 After they call self assist, they start the regular debark. Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted February 9, 2009 #8 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Wow - they do it deck by deck now? I guess more and more people are doing it this way... I much prefer self-assist although when I'm packing, I have to keep reminding myself that I intend to be able to use it!!! I did this off Ecstasy a week and a half ago. It said something about calling us deck by deck, but I never heard them calling any decks and the line getting off was getting longer so we got in line too. We were in the atrium area (our cabin was behind the purser's desk on Empress deck where they lock the doors so you have to walk around to the middle and over to port side to get off.

eastoftheboston Posted February 9, 2009 #9 Share Posted February 9, 2009 It's not always the quickest way off the ship. Last week we were in Zone 1 for regular disembark on the Imagination. They were calling self-assist by deck, and had gone through 3 decks of self-assist, then called my zone and 2 others, along with one other deck of self-assist, so I was down in the terminal getting my bags while several self-assist decks were still on the ship. Just something to consider, self-assist isn't always faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always different options. Cathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
