zumbalover Posted March 21, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2013 We are sailing on the crown princess out of galveston on Saturday and I am wondering what the earliest we can board is. We like to be on the ship early and get started on our vacation. We've done cruises out of Florida ports and have always been on by about 11:30 but our cruise documents for this cruise say 1:00. Does anyone know if we can get on the crown early or will we be standing around waiting for hours if we go early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjkTX Posted March 22, 2013 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2013 When we went a couple of weeks ago - they held everyone in the waiting area until noon then started boarding by priority with Elites first. So not much point getting there much before noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trabeler Posted March 22, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 22, 2013 It was close to 12:30 when "general" boarding started on the 9 March sailing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comments on the Princess board indicate Crown usually starts boarding at Noon, occasionally 12:30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefBoats Posted March 22, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 22, 2013 You may be able to board as early 12:30. Our paper work indicates after 1:00 for faster boarding. The ship does not sail until 5:00PM and based on what we have seen monitoring the Galveston cruise terminal web cams she will not depart until about 5:15 or so.

cpayne Posted March 22, 2013 #7 Share Posted March 22, 2013 Feb 16 sailing general boarding started around 12:00 or 12:30 as well. Seemed a bit later than the other cruises we have taken from Galveston unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
