bones774 Posted October 20, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 20, 2017 I'm sailing on Gem 10/31 out of NY, 6PM departure which is a bit different than their usual 4PM, so anyway, what is earliest to board ship? Thnaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vince_g Posted October 20, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Boarding should begin as soon as the ship is cleared (11:30 ish). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BostonGal35 Posted October 20, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 20, 2017 wtih a 4pm sail away, usually boarding starts at 1130ish. so id plan for about 1 or 130 for a 6pm departure, keeping in mind suites, ambassadors, plat plusses, plats and CAS will all board first.

vince_g Posted October 20, 2017 #4 Share Posted October 20, 2017 OP, the same question was asked about the Nov 11th cruise. Someone posted there they thought boarding time would not be affected by the later departure time. Call NCL and ask is your best bet. Please let us know.

I imagine NCL would have standard line, all pax must be onboard 2 hours before depart, just looking for a "been there, real world" answer.

Rare BirdTravels Posted October 20, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Boarding is unaffected. Once they get to a zero count, they will start boarding suites and priority passengers. General boarding around 11:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare rjm11 Posted October 20, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 20, 2017 we were out of San Juan last year with a late departure time (9 or 11 or something), and boarding still began around 11 or 11:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
