Give yourself time to board before we set sail
There are two important arrival times to note in your eDocs. One is your embarkation time and the other is your departure time.
• Embarkation time is when you should arrive at the cruise terminal. We ask that you please do not arrive any earlier than one hour prior to the embarkation time noted in your eDocs, because security regulations might prohibit early entrance.
• Departure time is when your ship will set sail. We highly encourage you to board no later than two hours prior to the departure time noted in your eDocs. This will give you enough time to complete your check-in at the cruise terminal before boarding (your online check-in must be completed prior to arrival). If you don’t arrive on time, you may join the ship at an approved port of call in the scheduled cruise itinerary. You will be responsible for all travel arrangements, applicable fees and travel expenses related to that subsequent port of call.
Claim your luggage
If you are flying in, don’t forget to claim your luggage at the airline’s baggage-claim area. At the pier, porter service is available during boarding and disembarkation. Tips are customary and greatly appreciated by our hardworking porters (usually $1 a bag, $2 a bag in New York). Please be sure each piece of luggage has a luggage tag listing your name, ship and stateroom number.
Also, since staterooms aren’t available until 2pm, and you won’t see your luggage until late in the afternoon, consider carrying a small bag with any essential items, such as medication and a change of clothes in case you want to relax by the pool.
Start your holiday
There’s no need to kick off your cruise holiday with an empty stomach. We invite you to step aboard and enjoy a buffet. This way, you’ll be covered even if your departure pier happens to have no restaurants nearby. Our lounges will also be open if you want to enjoy a cocktail or soft drink as we sail away.
