whitsmom Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 What time does everyone have to be out of the cabin at the end of the cruise? I thought it was early but I cannot remember for the life of me. My son-n-law and I were talking about when to disembark. Our flight isn't until 4:40 pm; however, if we have to get out of the cabin early then we might as well leave and go pick up our rental than to sit around the ship just waiting to leave.

Jerel Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I'm not sure when you HAVE to be off but the last departure time was 830am on my last cruise on the Anthem. If you have time to kill they tend to offer very cheap excursions that show you the area before dropping you and your luggage off at airport.

whitsmom Posted December 27, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 Our flight isn't until 4:40 pm and we have a vehicle reserved. I was pretty sure we would be off the ship early. I would like to have time to do something before the flight home so that will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I don't know if there is a universal time about when you have to be out of the room by. Usually it's all communicated in the final day cruise compass that will be in your stateroom. In my experience, they are pretty adamant about getting you out of the room. If you don't put up a Do Not Disturb sign on your door the night before, expect a lot of knocking to see if you are still there. whitsmom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monctonguy Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 From what I can remember, its about 9:30 am that the last "group" is scheduled to leave the ship.....so it defn wouldn't be later than 10am...and really its a madhouse that last morning trying to do anything or go anywhere on the ship. If you have a rental car waiting, I would get off the ship when its convenient for you and then take 3 or 4 hours to enjoy some sightseeing or an excursion to kill the time till you need to show up to the airport. whitsmom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteSoxFan Posted December 28, 2016 Report Share Posted December 28, 2016 I agree with everything that Matt said. Regardless of the last time off the ship they want you our of your cabin as early as possible. It is a daunting task to clean and prepare all the cabins on turnaround day so they want as much time as possible. whitsmom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firegal2539 Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 You can choose the option to take your own luggage off the ship, if you feel that you can do that. You will be the first passengers off when it clears customs. On my last cruise in November passengers lined up on Deck 5 starting at 7 am, the crew tried to stop them, but when you have a stampede, five crew members can't control them. The line started at the elevators (blocking them so passengers couldn't get on or off) and went around the whole ship, almost back to the elevators. What was funny, there was a problem with customs and the very first passengers in line stood there until 9 am before they could disembark. If I could drag my large suitcase I would do the self disembarkation. whitsmom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clmsnskr Posted December 30, 2016 Report Share Posted December 30, 2016 I always just stay on board until they practically literally throw me off. I'm never in a hurry to leave. whitsmom and WAAAYTOOO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
