Arrive late to staggered boarding time question.

[rawley2]

It takes us 5 hours to drive to the port. Lots of things can happen that could make me arive late to our 1/2 hour time slot. What happens when your late?

 

Thanks

You can arrive anytime during your time slot or after - just not before

The "staggered times" are suggestions....honestly...if someones flight arrives before their "scheduled" time, are they going to sit at the airport? Hell, no! Just go when you get there.

No longer a " suggestion" in Galveston and New Orleans. They will make you wait outside. However, you may arrive anytime AFTER your check in window.

Depends on the port, if you are cruising from a port with staggered check-in and ignore your time slot and arrive early (assuming you don't have priority boarding) you will find yourself waiting outside until your appointed time. If you arrive late, they will let you right in :)

The times are not suggestions at a number of ports, they are requirements. If you arrive before your time you will not be allowed in the building, unless you arrive by CCL shuttles. If you arrive by private vehicle where you wait is your choice, but you won't be getting early. If you arrive later than your time you will be allowed in.

As mentioned they are just recommendations.

Does anyone know if your check-in time is just a recommendation in Charleston?

Arriving after your assigned (or chosen) check-in time will mean that you bypass the cruise terminal entry line for the current check-in time and go straight to the security line. We arrived at least 3/4hour after our 10:30 - 11:00 time and hardly stopped moving until we were on the ship (Dream Jan. 31 - NOLA)
