When Do I Pick My Check In Time at the Pier?

[goodmanl1975]

I have seen some other posts regarding picking a specific time to check in at the pier for Embarkation due to COVID. 

 

I am 48 days out, and my check in process is as complete as it can be - pictures uploaded etc.

 

I did see that it states to come back 21 days prior to my Embark date, so is that when I have an option to do that?

 

Thanks in advance.

Yes, at 21 days you will see that option in the Health and Safety area of your checkin..

If using ncl flight/ transfer option, how do we know arrival at port timing?

We did the flights through NCL, and it doesn't simplify the port check-in time at all.  We went out of Miami on the Gem and flew into FLL.  We ended up waiting nearly 2 hours for the shuttle/transport from NCL.  The only thing Norwegian told me is that when you choose a check-in time, you cannot be there BEFORE that time.  So I would choose a time closest to your landing time, knowing that you will get to the port late but not before that time.

 

Also, when we got in line for the pre-board covid test, I don't remember them asking me what my check-in time was; that seems to be more related to once you gain access to the actual port itself.  Negative atigen test results in a wristband which you will need to get through security and into NCL's cruiseport.
