MSC Magnifica - Southampton Boarding Times

Due to sail on Magnifica on 16th April from Southampton. The tickets came through today and show a boarding time of 4PM!

I've never boarded a cruise this late before ever and all plans have me arriving in Southampton in the AM.

Anyone know if MSC stick to this time or will allow boarding early?

Thanks

No, they don't. You can turn up as early as you like. Once boarding starts, you can get on. You may have to wait for your stateroom to be ready, of course. Ken

Do they say what dock it is to embark.Cheers.

We are on the cruise before you and some family members have a time of 1/4 to 6 to board which to me is much too late for a family with young children to board, unpack, get to muster and eat before bedtime. Very worried about that.

Do not stress! MSC is not organised enough to check when you should have turned up. Just arrive when it suits you. Ken

Remember you have paid for the first Day, so Be there early

Unfortunately if everybody turns up early some will be disappointed as everyone will not board straight away. Then people will be complaining about MSC embarkation processes.
