    You’ll chose an arrival time when you check in online. Check in as early as possible when it opens. You’ll get an email about a week before sailing that you can arrive at 11:00 with the key regardless of your assigned arrival time.

    We sailed on Harmony in May, and there was a long line outside. However, it was because the Coast Guard was doing their annual ship inspection and no one was allowed on the ship until it was finished. So, everything was backed up. Luckily, we were Star Class and were quickly shuttled through the process and waited in a standing room only suite lounge. Once allowed on board, I remember looking at the long line from our balcony. The line was backed up to the gargage entrance. 😳 I have never seen it like that before. It is amazing that an hour delay in boarding can cause such a ripple down effect.  Thinking back, I'm not sure I would have waited in that line. Instead, I think I would have walked to one of the near by restaurants to have a cold drink and let the line die down a little. Thank goodness I didn't have to make that choice. 
    That said my advice is to have your test result printed along with your vaccination card and passport easily accessible for the port agents to check. So much time is wasted by people trying to hunt down their test results on their phones, or digging through their bags for their vaccination card or passports. 🤦‍♂️  Having everything ready to go makes this step in the boarding process seemless, and the agents are happy to assist you and get you moving along. 
    Enjoy your cruise! 🚢

    the key line in Terminal 1 at PC is awesome ( I assume Harmony is T1). It starts out side the terminal, security, check in, on the boat. Love the Key

    We are sailing on Harmony in a couple weeks. I have seen wait times alluded to on here more than a couple times. I guess this is something we should be prepared for?
    Sorry OP I know that isnt a reference to your question

    Diane.M got a reaction from RWDW1204 in Possible gov’t restrictions. Nooo!!!!   
    We are supposed to cruise March 30, we have the same situation.  3 of our group are being told they will have to self quarantine if they go.  Sadly we are being forced to cancel and take FCC.  This was going to be a first cruise for most of our group.  ?

    Traveling with someone you learn a lot.  I've got some good friends that turned into terrible people when they traveled.  It's not a bad way to see how compatible they really are.  Better to find out sooner rather than later.

    Thanks for this info, we have a similar situation... my son met a girl on our cruise and is thinking of taking her on the next cruise, in a year's time, but he's only known her a couple of weeks and it's a long distance relationship, so obvious risks in booking her on.

    That would be great!  My son has only been dating her for 60 days, and says it is wrong to ask her to go on a cruise further out then he has been dating. I believe if they are still dating mid February he will add her.

    Also, if your sons friend is a minor, follow the direction on the Royal Caribbean website link below...

    If your son specified that there would be another person when he booked the cabin and just didn't have a name at the time, then he can add the person any time. In this case his reservation it would show the second person as "Tba, Tba" until the name is added.
    If not, I would recommend he add a second immediately, in hopes the rate isn't too much more than taxes and port fees. Then if he chooses not to bring the friend after all, the taxes and port fees will be refunded.
    Does that make sense?

    Exactly what @WAAAYTOOO said as long as he doesn’t mind getting re-priced at prevailing rates. You need at least 3 on a reservation to lock down a price.

    If a passenger is added to the cabin, the cruise fare will be recalculated based on current prices but Royal is always happy to take more money from you.  The only possible restriction with adding a passenger at the last minute would be if adding someone upset the balance/availability of life boats. My guess is that this would be unlikely to be a problem if your son was a single, but it could happen. Otherwise, I don’t expect there would be a problem with adding someone to the room as long as they realize the fare will most likely increase.

    Wow! I hate to hear you had such a bad experioence. I do a lot of research and check reviews, etc for things like limo companies but I read just the other day that for $60 someone can buy a few hundred positive reviews for their site / business. I had a similar situation to yours a few years ago in Honolulu. Small limo company that I booked as a surprise for my wife to take us from the airport to our hotel. He never showed up and when I called the number just got a recording. Luckily for me at the limo waiting area there was another limo driver with the opposite problem. His booked fare never showed up. After an hour of so and a bit of chatting he told me he couldn't book me directly as that violated taxi / limosine rules for the airport but if I called his office and booked him he could take me right then so I did. I left a voie mail with the limo service I had booked that I expected no charges to my credit card and to their credit they didn't. However they also never emailed or called with an apology.
    When I am in Miami or Fort Lauderdale for a cruise now I use Lyft or Uber.

    +1 on Go Airport Shuttle, I have used them multiple times between airport and cruise port, both ways, picked me up at the airport and transferred to cruise port, picked me up at the cruise port and transferred me to the airport. This has been at both Fort Lauderdale and Miami.
    I give them a credit card but they do not charge until the day of the pick up. I usually pay the tip in cash.
    As mentioned above this is all done online, the only time I speak with someone is when they are on their way to pick us up.
