Oosterdam/ Embarkation

[FrankenLouis]

Hi,
Sailing on Oosterdam Jan 02. Has anyone seen if they have different lines for check in for NON US Citizens?

Also .. many times I have read that the lines are much longer for passengers who have completed the online sign in form. Is it a problem to have done the online form, but also have the standard form completed and just get in which ever line is better? ;)

Thanks...

We will be traveling with you the 2nd..
We have never had a problem with longer lines by filling out the immigration forms ahead of time..The situation maybe different since you are a non U.S. citizen.
From looking at several online T.A.'s lately it appears the ship will not be full for our sailing.. This should cut down on embarkation time a little
See you onboard!!!

When we boarded the O'dam in October, I really wished we were non-citizens! That was the shortest line! Really, no line... If I remember right, it's way to the left side...

Girlinadaydream,

I use Bestpricecruises.com as my source (so it could easily be wrong)
You can pull up each cruise and it will show the availability in each category of cabins.
When I checked this past Sunday there were probably 7-12 cabins available for obstructed ocean view or inside.
Those cabins could go those who bought "guarented cabins" or fire sales at the last minute.
So I could be wrong

It is no problem, in fact we've done it for the past two cruises... we just get in which ever line is shortest and never had a problem! On both our last two cruises, the online registration line was much longer.
