Default Boarding time mariner of the seas


Hi fellow cruisers. We are a group of 6 Aussies departing on the Mariner of the Seas from San Pedro Cruise Terminal for the Mexican Riviera in March,2010 and was just wondering what is the best time to be at the pier for boarding for a quick embarkation. Is there any thing we might do to accelerate the boarding process????

Thanx Bob.

We took the shuttle from the Crowne Plaza at about 1030. Pretty easy checking in and was boarding around noon, but my grandpa was handicap so we were among the first to board but the masses were boarding right behind us.

I live 25 minutes from the Port of San Pedro. When I get there at 1:00 there are basically no lines, easy, fast boarding. Just make sure you have all your paperwork completed, passports out and you'll be on in no time. Have a great cruise!

Default Dear eddiesmom

Thankyou very much for the information. I just thought we might of had to get at the pier about 11am for quick boarding.

Once again, thanks Bob.
