Boarding time for a ta?

[Orator]

I usually board at 11:30am, but docs say boarding for TA is at 2:00pm. What time have you been able to board for a TA?

On our three TA's the boarding times were no different from regular cruises, doors usually open 10-11ish depending upon where it departs.

On our two previous transatlantic cruises, we went directly from the airport to the ship. In both cases, we arrived just before 11:00, boarded, did a little orientation tour as the ship really was not fully ready for passengers, then had a bite to eat. We could not go into our room until about 1:30 or so, even to drop off our carry-on luggage.

 

Hope to see you at Bimini on Sunday night!

I always get there about 11:00 to beat the crowds. Usually on board by 11:30.

If ya'll get there early, just look us up by the pool or in 1648 :D

Thanks, you all confirmed what I thought.

The published boarding time for most cruises is 2PM (or later for late sailing times) even though boarding usually starts before noon unless there is an issue with the prior disembarkation or some other sort of problem. So this one is no different.

 

Just be aware that if you arrive early there is a change of a wait and staterooms are usually not available until cleaning is completed around 1PM.
