timetravellers Posted March 16, 2009 #1 Share Posted March 16, 2009 Hi Can someone tell me what time boarding starts at Dover for the Balmoral? Thanks Gail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petergoesrock Posted March 17, 2009 #2 Share Posted March 17, 2009 When we sailed on the Black Watch from Dover last year boarding starting early/mid afternoon. Timings were given in the information sent out with the tickets, not that people followed that. We were on the top deck and listed as first for boarding, when we walked into the departure lounge, spot on time, it was full!! Enjoy :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez100 Posted March 17, 2009 #3 Share Posted March 17, 2009 We were given an arrival time with our tickets but arrived early as we had to travel 350 miles and had given ourselves some leeway in case of problems. We fully expected to be asked to wait somewhere but everyone was very helpful. We even boarded really early but there was only tea and coffee in the cafe on board available, so no great benefit to arrive early unless forced too by circumstances - cabins were still released as advised which was either 2 or 3 oclock with a 4 oclock sailing.

Fred. Olsen Cruise Lines Posted March 18, 2009 #4 Share Posted March 18, 2009 In response to your question currently BL0905 is due to set sail at 16.30, so embarkation should be at around 14.00, however this is subject to change and you will receive full details in your ticket pack a few weeks before departure.
