don't-use-real-name Posted December 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 22, 2022 YMMV - - - I would check-in when I arrive at the Cruise Terminal - They may be set up to do the check-in NOW or later - You may be told to buzz off till your appropriate time - You may get that early boarding que with the CAS - Won't know till check-in - But it makes sense to take care of the guests NOW as they check-in rather than pushing/kicking the can down the road making a bigger boarding mess !

MCMC100 Posted December 22, 2022 #3 Share Posted December 22, 2022 In many cruises from several ports, I have never had a port employee ask to see my EDocs to review my check-in time. It just makes sense that way. You have thousands of people arriving from literally across the country. Most of us can’t control our arrival time to a specific 30 minute window. We get to the terminal when arriving aircraft, mass transit, busses, trains, Uber, the Taxi and Limousine Commission, local traffic, hotel front desk efficiency, parking availability and weather allow us. To turn people away ( to go where exactly?) is simply more trouble than it’s worth. If I get through traffic quicker than I anticipated and arrive 90 minutes early should I stand out front with my luggage as a navigation hazard to others arriving? The check in time is an attempt to control the volume of passengers arriving at any given time. I suspect for everyone that arrives early, someone is late because the George Washington Bridge is a parking lot (pick your own traffic mess at your port). Go early and take advantage of the opportunity to board a little early with CAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haddonqueen Posted December 24, 2022 #4 Share Posted December 24, 2022 Hi, I’m also hoping to board early, We land in Buenos Aires at 8-30 am and we are both disabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
