There is one lane into the terminal area which is about a mile from the highway where you turn off. The traffic has been backed up for the full mile. Its about a 45 minute to an hour back up. Problem....... RCCL tell you get there at 1PM, the early birds are there at 1000 am while 3000 people are still being unloaded or waiting for their rides who are stuck in the line. Easiest way is to get there for 1-130 and breeze right on.

Sounds about normal to me. We never arrive until about 1pm to skip all that traffic.

Chair Hog Infraction? Cutting line at the buffet? Entered stateroom prior to 1pm? Skipped muster drill? Tried to sneak alcohol onboard?

I'm going with cutting in line -- it appears to be happening more and more since the recent Wal-Mart trial

Hooker caught soliciting at the Art Auction? RCCL didn't care about her profession, but didn't like the conflict for customers getting screwed.
