What is the best time to arrive for Freedom of the Seas?

[AandBmom]

We're staying over in Orlando the night before and have a rental car from Dollar.

 

Thoughts on when to arrive? Is there a time that is less busy? Any advice?

Probably after 2pm will be less busy.

Concur. Mostly there's a rush right when things get started, and then a busy swell around noon that can last a while, but by mid-afternoon, you won't even have to slow down walking through the boarding unless you're actually talking to someone. And by then, your cabin will be ready and you can drop your carry-on stuff off immediately.

Later = less crowds. 2-230.

We get there about 10:30 and we are one of the first people on the ship.

11:30, on the ship by noon. Sat at a bar and had a drink waiting for 1:00 to go to cabin. We were on a New Years cruise and it was packed. Lot's of people got on early. I like to get on as soon as I can, but if you wait until after noon, as others have pointed out, it'll be less crowded and the cabin will be ready at 1:00.

We got there at 11:00am and were on the ship @ 11:35.
