amyotravel Posted June 24, 2019 #2 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Q: What is the latest time I can arrive at the cruise terminal for my cruise?A: In preparation for departure, you must be on board by the Final Boarding time printed on your boarding pass or you will not be permitted to sail. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coevan Posted June 24, 2019 #3 Share Posted June 24, 2019 that is not true, you can board up to one hour before departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joepeka Posted June 24, 2019 #4 Share Posted June 24, 2019 I am sure that some here who are closer to the situation will correct me but I believe the ship has to provide a final passenger manifest to DHS one hour prior to sailing. If the ship is late doing so, I'm guessing the departure will be delayed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grandmarnnurse Posted June 25, 2019 #7 Share Posted June 25, 2019 (edited) OMG! Why wait? I’m on that ship as soon as I’m allowed to board! Can’t start that vacation fast enough in my opinion! I also try to get FTTF to start it even sooner. But if this is really essential information to you, make sure you are onboard about 2 hours prior to departure. I’d say 2:00 would be the latest. Why cut it any closer. For my April 5 cruise, we have to drive about 4 hours to get to port. I intend to leave between 4-5:00am to ensure I’m at least near the port and ready to check in and board ASAP. I do have FTTF for that cruise also, which will be a B2B.

jbethel11 Posted June 25, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 25, 2019 I should warn, not only is traffic a huge staple (not the good one) in Manhattan, but also New York's terminals are not in the best of shape, so I would advise getting there with ample time to spare!

2wheelin Posted June 25, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Knowing what the final boarding time is and planning to cut it that close are two different things. That is always good information to have "just in case" something happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coevan Posted June 25, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Per Carnival's website, guest must be on board 60 minutes prior to sailing or they risk loosing their reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
