Yeah I would gladly pay for a hotel to not have to worry about missing the cruise flying in same day...I say they did them a favor

Not sure about your specific cruise by my Epic cruise last month had a departure time of 7 or 9pm from San Juan but boarding time was the usual Noon (as stated on docs but actually was around 1130). What time does the ship get into port in the morning, that would be the driver if its later than normal...

They have certainly changed the way you select a cabin from the last time I did it pre-covid. This last go around it assigned me a room and it took me forever to figure out how to change it...and I honestly can't remember exactly how I did it now it was so convoluted haha. I think I clicked on the stateroom number it assigned and then went from there....

If memory serves there was a very small locker room at the fitness center on the escape, and possibly a steam room but it’s been years since I was on her so it might be my imagination

On my sailing that ended Jan 15th they announced at the end of the show that it was the final week for it onboard.

I believe you can

Last week it was 30min prior during port stops

Yep I had heard rumors about the sensors and tried it but they were disabled last week. Like was stated above the only sensor that worked was the glass elevator from pool deck

Yep I believe it was 4 in San juan

It varies by port. It’s was either 4 or 5 last week.

Not sure what you mean “hijacked’” just got off the epic yesterday in the haven. They had one elevator “special service” for the haven for port debarcation and embarcation and other than that there were never any elevators reserved for only haven guests.

Arrived just about 10am, one line to drop luggage that took about 2min and then a separate Haven security line that took about 10-15 mins then to a holding area with coffee, juice snacks… currently still there, I figured we would checkin before this but apparently not haha.

Was precila still playing this cruise Ohio boomer?

Will do! In San Juan now, and have a 10am checkin time tomorrow morning! Have the Haven for the first time but hear conflicting reports on if that actually means anything in San Juan for checkin…

Boarding will still be the normal time. I’m leaving out of San Juan tomorrow and listed departure time is 7pm and eDocs say boarding is at Noon (what they always say)
