Derek409 Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 Hello. We are sailing on Oasis on April 5, 2014, and on our SetSail pass, it indicates check in time at 12:30 PM. We thought this seemed a bit late, and we were planning on boarding around 10:30 or so. Is 10:30 too early? Has anyone that has sailed on Oasis had to wait until 12:30 to board? Thanks, Derek. Quote
Marc Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 That's about the time I try to get to the port. I like to get there early so I can get checked in, wait in the terminal, and board as soon as boarding starts, typically around 11:30. You won't be able to board at 10:30, but arriving at the port at that time isn't bad. Quote
Matt Posted March 9, 2014 Report Posted March 9, 2014 I always arrive super early. Assuming the ship is on time, I'm at the pier by 10:30 usually. Too excited to wait at the hotel! Quote
Derek409 Posted March 9, 2014 Author Report Posted March 9, 2014 I totally agree. I cant stand waiting at the hotel. I would much rather wait at the cruise port than the hotel! Quote
Matt Posted March 10, 2014 Report Posted March 10, 2014 I totally agree. I cant stand waiting at the hotel. I would much rather wait at the cruise port than the hotel! Plus even if you are waiting in the port's waiting area, you will be among first to check in. Lines only get longer as the day progresses. Shawn 1 Quote
Derek409 Posted March 10, 2014 Author Report Posted March 10, 2014 This is true too. Thanks for the advice! We're down to 25 days! Quote
bcarney Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 Derek409 - we're on the same cruise as you!!! :-) Spent last night watching every YouTube video on Oasis there is… Can't wait!!! "The Real" Bill Carney Quote
Tylor Posted March 11, 2014 Report Posted March 11, 2014 I arrive early as well. I'm an early person by nature. And you have paid for that first day, so you might as well be one of the first ones on the ship! Tips for early birds: You get on the ship first, have more time to explore, learn the ship layout. Your luggage typically will get boarded first and delivered sooner than later. You can beat the rush to lunch. You can make show and specialty reservations before everyone else. Quote
Derek409 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Posted March 11, 2014 bcarney- We can't wait either! We are constantly checking reservations and days left. Seems like it was just 100 days! So ready for another vacation! Quote
Derek409 Posted March 11, 2014 Author Report Posted March 11, 2014 Tylor- We are somewhat early birds as well, get to enjoy more of your day (especially on a cruise)! Thanks for the tips! Quote
