Thanks for the report. Sorry to hear they're not enforcing the times.

I'm on your same itinerary in two weeks. Please share any and all info if you're so inclined.

Thanks and have a great cruise!

Boarding wasn't bad for us (Suite & Diamond+) with 11 am boarding time.  When we arrived at 11, lines were backed up at the outside checkin before entering the terminal. Obviously, many passengers were there early were being processed slowly without regard for boarding time.  Once inside terminal, checkin was pretty fast and efficient.  

On board, its a full ship but all is great.  While it appears there are a lot of new staff members in training (restaurants, staterooms & casino) they are are all very cordial and welcoming. I'm sure staffing up and getting up to speed is challenging in these times.

Today (Monday) is a rainy day at CocoCay and cruise entertainment staff supplemented onboard offerings with lots of additional events (movies, towel folding, trivia, etc) to fill the void.

Sounds good (except for the rainy day). Thanks for the insights. Been on Harmony and other Oasis-class before but always nice to hear a current trip report.

Did they have a line for the ones with the "Key"?

Yes, along with the Suite line. Make sure you get on the "correct' line for Key.  A little difficult to find outside terminal. It moved fairly quickly, much shorter than those without and efficient once you get into terminal for actual checkin

I will be looking for the correct line for sure.  We are on the Harmony mid-July and it is the first time we have gotten the Key.  We can't do our check in until June 2nd so I hope we get an early time slot.
