7pm Departure

We are sailing on the Carnival Victory, leaving out on April 4. Our last cruise departed at 4:00pm, but this cruise's departure time is 7:00pm. Is this normal?

Do you think we are going to be able to board before lunch or do we need to make different plans? We are going to have our 16 and 12 year old sons with us for their first cruise so we want to have our day somewhat planned.

Thanks!

It all depends what time the ship docks from previous cruise.

This is the first post dry dock cruise? They usually go later than normal, probably due to lading of provisions, and I am sure there may be some other reasons too, but I have seen this often with first cruises post drydock.
