The general rule is 1 hour before sailing.

Thanks JohnG, Jeff for the Info Im like Cheryl though, me and Annie always go down two days before sailing,this way we can also eat out and enjoy the City and scope out the Port! But some cant get Down that early though! We are Lucky that we can drive down in 5 Hours From Ft. Worth,Tx. to Galveston! We eat at either Landrys or Willie G's seafood restaurant great Seafood if you like Seafood of course they have other things! We stay at the Holiday Inn Sunspree Resort on Seawall Blvd. Nice Hotel and we leave our vehicle for free for the week they have a enclosed parking lot in the rear of the hotel!

I agree about always arriving in the departure city the day before, if at all possible. I posted this in another thread recently, but wil abbreviate it here - we were sailing from San Juan at 10:00 - we booked a flight that was schedule to land about 2:30, which we felt was more than enough time. Due to the flight being delayed numerous times, we did not land until after 9:00 and had been told we could board no later than 9:30. It was a race, literally, with cabbie driving like he was at the Indy 500 in order to get that extra tip hubby offered if we made it in time. It was way too much stress. That was the first time we ever flew in on sailing day, and will be the last.
