Thanks everyone for the advice and input. Here's the info some were asking for;
CRUISE DETAILS
Embark Date: Dec 15, 2019
Disembark Date: Dec 22, 2019
Ship: Koningsdam
Voyage: K966
From Port: Fort Lauderdale
To Port: Fort LauderdaleOur plan is to arrive at 10:30 as usual and see what happens. I agree this time restriction would be incredibly difficult to enforce. I will say we were on a HAL cruse last year and the year before and never received a notice like this. Both previous cruises were on the Maasdam. This is our first cruise on the Koningsdam. We don't depart for a few more weeks, but I'll be glad to come back and update how things go.

We received an email this morning from HA stating they have a new check-in policy. The new policy issues required check-in times by ship level. I can't say we are thrilled. Like most seasoned travelers we enjoy arriving early, having lunch, and going for a swim before the crowds arrive.
Any thoughts/suggestions on this new mandate?

progressive cruise check-in schedule. Please arrive at the check-in time listed

Actually it was HAL that said it was new in their email and when we called them.
