Here's a guess. Go to the app and see when your safety briefing shows up in your calendar

 

We have 2pm for boarding slot, being Pinnacle I may show up at 1:00 since we get an hour cushion. It should/may correspond to the first slot. 

 

From what I can tell so far, the briefing seems to correspond with boarding time

 

Thanks.!  Mine shows at 10:30 am, so looks like my 1 pm slot is pretty late. 🤦🏼‍♀️ Guess I’ll pay more attention to my check ins for November because we have a side to side booked and we can only kill so much time traveling from Miami to FLL

I could be wrong, but our sailaway isn't until 7pm, so who knows.

 

No check in available for our Harmony TA end of October

The earliest that I could get for our upcoming Allure cruise was 1pm.  I didn't get a notice either and only checked because someone here mentioned that their cruise was available for check in.  I think (guessing) that the earliest times are 11:30.  In addition to Pinnacles, Suites can also show up an hour before the scheduled time.

The departure process for the Adventure was also only on TV.  No verbal announcements.

But I'm not sure the cushion for suites and pins supercedes the first boarding slot. 😉

 

There's a potential mess in the making

Time to wrap this up

 

Guess I better find a different place to stash my photos.  Still working on them.  I'll create a photo dump thread when I'm farther along.

Folks love your pictures.

Thanks John for your wrap and observations. Obviously cruising will be a work in progress. All in all I think Royal is doing a pretty good job. I'm sure there will be lot's of tweaking in the coming months.

Thanks again for doing this and taking us along. Cheers!

That seems a bit lame. It would be nice to just chill out on the balcony and listen to announcements rather than pay attention to the TV.

Officially spoiled being third in the priority  boarding line for years, despite the old, recommended  “check in”  times. 😕 

 

they need to add D+ to the “hour before” list. I might even give up my 5th free beverage for it!

That's what I got for my Allure cruise in October.  I'm pretty sure that IS the earlies time slot I have not seen anyone report getting any earlier and I checked in early on the first day they opened.  I got no notice either but saw it on FB

With the double points promotion almost everyone will be D+ by 2023.

Probably cheaper to just buy the stuff you want on the cruises, then spending all that money to get the points,,,,,,,,,,,,,what happens if in the next 6 months they change the total needed  to much higher to be Pinn?
