zelker Posted October 24, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2015 Will Seabourn allow us to hang out in our suite until we leave the ship rather than sending everyone to a common area, e.g., the theater, to wait? If the ship is scheduled to dock in Buenos Aires at 7:00 A.M., what's the latest they will let us stay onboard? What options (i.e., venues) are available for breakfast on the last morning? Thanks!

JVilleGal Posted October 24, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2015 (edited) Best to ask this on the Seabourn board. But generally you have to vacate your cabin fairly early (8:30ish) but the Seabourn board is the best place to ask.

As far as I know, this IS the Seabourn board ... unless there's another one I don't know about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wripro Posted October 24, 2015 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2015 They usually want you air of your suite by 8:30 at the latest. It's unfair to the crew who have to turn it over for the next passengers to make them wait until you are ready to get off the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTW on the App we can't see info in Your Profile right corner of your posts (where you are from, member since or # of posts ). And what you see on mine only reflects my New Life on CC (long story). :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nigella Posted October 24, 2015 #9 Share Posted October 24, 2015 You can normally stay onboard until just before 10am. It will depend on the port and Seabourn's own operations on the day. On our most recent cruise they were keen for everyone to disembark by 9.30am, on previous cruises we've disembarked at 10am. I agree with Wripro, it is better for the crew if guests vacate their suite at the requested time. On our last cruise we overslept on disembarkation morning and we didn't leave our suite until 8.15am; they'd requested us to vacate by 8am. Nobody tried to throw us out but I wouldn't want to push it any later than that. Guests don't (normally) get sent to the theatre on disembarkation morning, you can wait in any of the public areas. Seabourn Square is often quite busy on that day but we usually have breakfast and then head there after we have a final walk around the ship.

Rare Catlover54 Posted October 25, 2015 #10 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Room service is available the morning of disembarkation (that is always my favorite on cruises due to potential rushing around getting ready to vacate the room by 8) and the Colonnade also opened earlier than usual opening time on disembarkation day ( I think an hour earlier, on my recent Odyssey cruise to allow for early disembarkers). Seabourn Square was also popular. No herding in the theatre. Civilized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vistaman Posted October 25, 2015 #11 Share Posted October 25, 2015 i am just back from the sojourn we have to vacant the suite the latest at 8 am disembarkation must be completed around 10 am i once requested to stay longer due to a late flight i received a very strong NO way a few years ago - also there was a belgian group in Monaco - with a bus transfer at noon the group had to wait outside the ship ...as from 10 am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsavorite Posted October 25, 2015 #12 Share Posted October 25, 2015 8 am has always (as far as I recall) been the time to vacate the rooms. The best options are an early breakfast in the Colonnade (it opens early that day), and then return to the suite to pick things up, or room service. 80%+ of guests seem to wait until 8 am and then try to rush into breakfast together with all their carry-ons - good to be out of there by then. They want you off by 9.30am - I think they do not do a 'sweep' until a little before 10. Seabourn Square is a very comfortable place to wait, and the coffee is free-flowing. But new guests will start to arrive from midday, so I think this is all reasonable - I am sure that people would complain vociferously if they were not allowed to board after midday, because passengers from the previous cruise were still hanging around on board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zelker Posted October 25, 2015 Author #13 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Thanks to all for the good info. Think we'll plan to order room service to be delivered around 7:00 and be ready to vacate our suite by 8:00 and disembark around 8:30. OK, enough about the END of the cruise ... time to get back to planning for the actual 24 days on board!! :D Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolatravelgirl Posted November 17, 2015 #14 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Turn around day is always a challenge for the staff. All the folks on board don't want to get off and all the new embarking passengers are chomping at the bit to get on! The night before the room staff will start doing little things in your room to make the turnover quicker the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
