Boarding times?

[littlemeagain]

I haven't done my online checkin yet. One of my girlfriends said that NCL now gives you a boarding time? We are leaving on 5/21 Escape, which departs at 7pm. She had to choose a boarding time of 4:30-5:00. I never heard of this.

 

I am sailing with a CAS promo, so I think there is priority boarding? At least on the Getaway and Breakaway there was.

 

Can someone please advise? Thanks

The boarding times are not enforced.

 

You must be on board 2 hours prior to sail away (5 pm for a 7 pm departure).

 

Boarding for the Escape will start at 11:30 am (it will be printed as noon on your eDocs).

 

There has been no priority boarding for CAS on the Escape. The only place that I have seen that is in New York. I say that there "has been" no priority boarding for CAS since I was just on a cruise out of Port Canaveral where they boarded by Latitudes tier level and Casino guests before general boarding (never seen that before).

 

We're sailing on the Escape in 3 weeks and will see if they have altered their boarding process in Miami where it has been Havens guests followed by passenger boarding groups (first come first serve).
