Sofla mermaid Posted August 29, 2021 Report Posted August 29, 2021 Does anyone know if suite guests or pinnacle members are able to board at their leisure, or if they have to arrive at their scheduled time? Thanks. Quote
CrznTxn Posted August 29, 2021 Report Posted August 29, 2021 Everyone must arrive at their scheduled time. Only Pinnacle members have a slight leeway in their boarding time (I believe an hour each side of their time). All others must adhere to their schedule. Quote
barbeyg Posted August 29, 2021 Report Posted August 29, 2021 On CC, suite guests have reported being able to board 1 hour early/late as well. WAAAYTOOO, Baked Alaska, cruisellama and 1 other 4 Quote

Boarded in suite last week, leeway 1 hour before or after chosen time. At port terminal opening, Suite guests called fro m line and boarded first, approx 150 in line when terminal opened, 30 minutes before first time slot.

Snotarni Posted August 29, 2021 Report Posted August 29, 2021 Cool. I’d heard (read?) that Suite Guests could board an hour before their Check-in time. Want sure that was happening or not. Quote
BrianB Posted August 29, 2021 Report Posted August 29, 2021 Curious…are suites ‘allowed to arrive an hour before their designated time’ the same policy at every port? Wondering about Port Liberty. Quote

Wondering about Port Liberty. Supposed to function that way but if it's the first few sailings I'd expect the terminal contractors to make a few mistakes until it settles in and becomes well known.

WAAAYTOOO Posted August 30, 2021 Report Posted August 30, 2021 BC JS were included in the suites boarding protocols but who knows how it’s going to work now. Look on your Boarding Passes and if you see “Suite” on the BP my guess is that you will be included in the early boarding offer. BrianB, Ogilthorpe and Sofla mermaid 3 Quote
BrianB Posted August 30, 2021 Report Posted August 30, 2021 I thought it was usually grand suite and above. I have loft suites on the Oasis so that should make me eligible…IF Port Liberty workers are aware of the one hour before procedure. Oh well, guess I’ll see in three weeks. Either I get in early or wait outside for an hour. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote
Matt Posted August 30, 2021 Report Posted August 30, 2021 Your concierge will email you 5-7 days before your cruise and give you specific instructions on if/when you can book earlier. But right now they are enforcing check-in times, so I'd plan on that and see if concierge tells you any different. BrianB 1 Quote

It says "suite" on the cruise planner, but "Stateroom" on my Set Sail Pass, so I'll just stick with my chosen boarding time and not risk being turned away. I have a 1pm boarding time anyway, so NBD.
