bernipops Posted July 7, 2012 #1 Share Posted July 7, 2012 We have booked on the above mini cruise from Malaga and note the boarding time is 21.00 for the 23.59 departure. Could someone please tell me if it is possible to board prior to 21.00 as we will be arriving in Malaga a lot earlier and also if dinner will be available that evening. Many thanks for any help.

LINana Posted July 9, 2012 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2012 We are also booked on this cruise. I started a roll call for this but have no replies yet, hopefully I set up the roll call correctly. We're flying in from JFK and will arrive in Malaga around 1:00 p.m. with luggage in hand. Any word on possibility of boarding the ship earlier? I called customer service and have been told 3 different earliest boarding times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy Posted July 23, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Hi Everyone, I've been advised that boarding for this sailing, is scheduled to begin at 2 pm. I hope this helps. Enjoy your Cruise ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LINana Posted July 23, 2012 #6 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Thanks, Andy. I was also told 2:00 p.m. when I called Azamara however I made a follow-up call and was later told I couldn't board until about 8:00 p.m.:cool: I'm sure hoping that 2:00 p.m. stays as the boarding time as this would greatly help hubby and I catch a bit of rest from jetlag.

We asked the very same question of the Club Voyage hostess Dina whilst on The Quest last week - she confirmed that the boarding time would be as normal for a sailing, i.e. around lunchtime. It is not unusual for the Ship to make late departures, indeed we didn't leave one Port last week until after midnight. We are on the same 4 day cruise, given the short distances that we will be travelling I'm not surprised at the late departure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The late departure time didn't trigger the question; the fact that Quest is coming from a dry dock did, as she might therefore have a completely different arrival time in port than the usual early morning arrival time ahead of debarkation.

LesBesTes Posted September 6, 2012 #9 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Husband and I are eyeing this cruise and may book in a week or so, so we may join all of you over on the roll call thread shortly. Intriguing mini-itinerary... we'd be combining it with about 4-5 days in Spain on our own traveling by train. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floris Hi. The Quest actually comes out of dry dock a fortnight before this. I know because we have a 13 night cruise on her to the Canaries departing from Malaga on 15th November and arriving back in Malaga at 06:00 on 28th November. Like your cruise, I think ours was a last minute thought by Azamara after the dry dock dates were finalised. I hope you enjoy your cruise as we are certainly looking forward to ours. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floris Odd, I paid the full balance of my 15th November cruise on July 27th and completed my online check-in a couple of days later :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
