Billy overboard

First cruise and I could probable do a search, but getting married on Friday and I just want an answer.

We got an email today saying not to arrive at Port Everglades before 1:30. We are sailing on Freedom on Saturday and we have FTTF. Is this just a standard email or do they really mean don't get there any earlier. Kind of makes FTTF less of a deal, was hoping to be on board late morning and having lunch before then.

If it is just a standard email, what is the earliest you can plan to arrive and board. I doubt we will be the first ones there, but curious.

Thanks.

For example if someone wanted to send you a gift for your cruise, like room decorations or a cake or chocolate strawberries for your cruise as a surprise or a present how do they go about doing that?

Thanks,

Can we debark port Everglades and make a west palm beach flight at noon?, this would be on a Sunday. Carnival cruise with faster to the fun reserved.

Thanks

Any chance there is some type of shuttle I can use? Any idea on price, it would be nearly 300 cheaper to fly our of West Palm Beach. However the cheapest flight in is into FLL believe it or not.

What kind of travel time should we expect?

Thanks,
