macandlucy Posted June 10, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 10, 2014 (edited) We are booked on a C/NE cruise on the Veendam embarking and overnighting in Quebec City. I called HAL and the rep said it's okay to embark after the cruise ship terminal closes at 4pm by going directly to the ship, but somehow that makes me a little uneasy. Have you had any experience with this or know anyone who has? Any thoughts on doing something like this? (If the thought is, "Lady, are you crazy!?" no need to post it -- it's already running around in my head ;) Edited June 10, 2014 by macandlucy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have also seen posts, in the past, about people doing this without incident. Hope it goes well for both of us. Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were embarking directly with their bags, around 7 pm I think. Didn't seem a big issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sppunk Posted June 10, 2014 #4 Share Posted June 10, 2014 Last September we saw people embarking at 1 a.m. - they go to the front desk to get processed. Easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macandlucy Posted June 11, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted June 11, 2014 Thanks everyone for your replies, I feel reassured. If we do decide to embark late I will report back on how it went. Thanks again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
