GiWiz Posted December 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 My ship is supposed to sail at 5 PM. I have cruised before and usually arrive at the dock around 10 or 11 AM. However, this time, flights are really limiting me and I may not be able to make it to the dock until 2 or 3 PM. Until what time before sailing are they still accepting passengers through registration? What is the latest anyone has arrived at the dock before they sailed? Thanks.

KeithnRita Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 GiWiz, If you booked your air thru the cruise line you don't have anything to worry about. If you booked it on your own we would advise contacting the cruise lines for this information. 2 or 3 PM for a 5 PM sail should be okay, but to be safe....

DaCruzNut Posted December 21, 2003 Report Share Posted December 21, 2003 You can arrive at the dock anytime you darn please! If you want to, you can get there 5:30 or 6:00 pm. Of course, you'll miss the ship, but you can arrive on your terms! HEY! WAIT FOR ME!!!!!!! ................................................................................ ................. SERIOUSLY: You can arrive up to one hour prior to scheduled sailing, and there shouldn't be any problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GottaCruz Posted January 21, 2007 Report Share Posted January 21, 2007 I know it's an added expense, but if possible, for those flying to port, it's a good idea if you can fly in a day or two earlier because with flight delays occuring so often, it's not worth the risk of missing the ship. We once sailed with family members flying into Miami from New Jersey and due to weather, their flight was cancelled . They were very fortunate to get another out that day and made it to the ship just in time. Created a lot of stress and anxiety for everyone.
