I believe it's midnight in the time zone the sailing departs from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisegirl1 Posted January 26, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Check in opened up this morning for one of my cruises. I went online at 7 AM and the earliest check-in was 11:30 AM. Now, (at about 10 AM) the earliest is noon. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KansasK Posted January 26, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Yesterday I found our check-in date after I logged into our cruise. It was in small print on the first screen. This was not on the app, but online. The date was 45 days before we sail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just planning to check in early in the A.M., (6:00 or 7:00) but it sounds like we might want to do it earlier if we want to actually be on the ship before noon.

Set your alarm for 1159 pm. Choose the time. Go back in later to do the passport stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The important thing is that you have to choose the time for each person on the booking, as the app does not default the other passengers to the same time as the first one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that two people in cabin simply shared a check in time. I understand that you need to go in and repeat the process for other bookings/cabins linked to your booking, but not for someone in your cabin.

Rare Lionesss Posted January 28, 2023 #16 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Our check in was this past Wednesday. The site on the App opened up at 12:04am.EST (Ohio) Did just enough to get the 10:30 am check in (wellness check), finished the next day. Take care 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpcaruth Posted January 28, 2023 #17 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Can you check in on the website site rather than the phone app? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. You need to select the time individually for each person in the cabin. To be fair, at this time, I don't know how much hassle you might get if you don't, maybe none. But why take the risk of a port employee not letting you board together? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dateacher Posted January 28, 2023 #19 Share Posted January 28, 2023 I am over thinking this but do you count the day you are doing it as day 1? For example, if my cruise leaves on April 2, is my earliest check in after midnight on Feb. 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can and, in fact, I do once I've secured the check in times by using the app. I don't like filling in all the details on the tiny phone screen. However, you can't secure a time on the website without filling in all the details, so if time is important to you it's a good idea just to snag them on the app. Then you can complete the rest at leisure online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason I remember checking in my brother and his spouse too (linked reservation), and fudging the passport info until he could go in and enter the correct info. Good to know it isn’t necessary to do the initial check in. Also, thanks for the info about choosing a time for each person. I didn’t really remember that part. Thanks again! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinmommy08 Posted January 29, 2023 #23 Share Posted January 29, 2023 My past 6 cruises in the last year I’ve always shown up around 10-10:15 am and on the ship no later than 11:30 am regardless what check in time was.(my check in time has never been later than noon) I haven’t had one person check my check in time at Miami, Ft. L, or PC. I accidentally joined the suite check in line at PC about 4 months ago and I didn’t realize I didn’t have a suite until I got to my room. I was confusing the sailing I was on with my next sailing! No one said one word or even checked my paperwork. I feel like it’s pre-COVID boarding.

sailor05 Posted January 29, 2023 #24 Share Posted January 29, 2023 The earliest that anyone could get on our cruise next month on the Harmony was 11:30 which surprised me. 10:30 has always been available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example, if my cruise leaves on April 2, is my earliest check in after midnight on Feb. 17. If 17 February is what it says in your app, then yes, it should be open just after midnight when the calendar rolls over from the 16th to the 17th. But "should" is the key word because sometimes there's a delay, in which case all you can do is keep checking back. Also it's important to remember that "midnight" is relative to the time zone where the ship is sailing. So, for you, in the DC Metro area, if your sailing happened to be from Rome, check should open at 6pm on the 16th because your 6pm would already be midnight in Rome. And conversely, if you were sailing from LA, it wouldn't open until 3am your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
