Not that far as she'll be in downtown Long Beach so about 15 minutes max over the bridges. Plus we are departing on a Sunday. She fully is aware of getting there plenty early.
Does anyone have any experience boarding separately than someone else in their cabin? My fiancé has a class in Long Beach the morning we depart and would like to go to it and get over to the ship around 2:45 and board. Would give me a couple hours to get our sanctuary and other reservations sorted onboard.
I love the new ships but nothing compares to Skywalkers on the Grand Class (Minus the grand itself). On the Sapphire in a week and a half and super super excited.
