Does carnival offer early departure off the ship?

[psadvocate]

on RCCL we could carry off our own luggage and we were off the boat by 7am max. Does Carnival offer something similar? Coming back to Port Canaveral on the Sat 3/23 - any idea on what time I can expect to be off the boat?

Carnival offers the same thing. The call it Self Assist (there is oxymoron for you).

I just sailed on the pride out of Baltimore. the ship docked around 8A. They started calling self assist by deck beginning at 9:15A. Started with deck 1, then 8, 2,7,3,6 and 5. Probably called decks every 15 minutes. If you had a flight scheduled before 12noon, you could get a special pass to get off early. I think you had to show your flight itinerary at guest services prior to disembarkation.

They want you off the ship asap so they can turn it around so they encourage self assist.

Yes, they do.
