We sailed 9/10 , had 10:30-11 arrival time and parked at port. We arrived around 10:15, parked, went into terminal, easy check-in, on ship 11:15.
I learned on this site: Go directly to parking, take your luggage with you from there. Apparently if you drop luggage first, you have to circle back to parking which can take 30-40 minutes.
Debarkation was easy, walked off with our bags at 8:00, no lines for customs.
For those debarking with Carnival transportation: Our FB sailing page is full of horror stories that not enough shuttles were available so people waited hours! Those who decided to give up on the line simply walked across the street and got Uber/Lyft
