Time to board in Southampton for 20:00 departure?

[mimi7ccr]

We are departing at 20:00 on a 10 night cruise on Magniifica from Southampton. What time do you think we

will be able to board? It is on a Monday. Thank you.

The boarding time will be on your tickets, on Preziosa last year we had 2 pm but boarded before that time.

Ticket will show earliest time. Last time is 2 hours before departure.

 

When are you sailing?

I’m going on the 9th July with my son.

We are sailing September 3rd. Thought of taking the 11:35 train from Waterloo, getting us to Southampton shortly after 13:00. then walk to the ship (or taxi), so around 14:00. Should be OK??

Be there around 11, They let people early on. You have paid for the first Day also. Go an have your lunch in the buffet.

For an upcoming trip on Orchestra, I have a check-in time given on the ticket of 15:45 for an 18:00 sailing - which I am going to totally ignore, as my flight gets into Barcelona at 11AM. I have a Black Card status and an Aurea cabin - I will not be waiting for 4 hours to board a ship. The ship can sail without me if they make me wait. I didn't actually realise this was an MSC policy that check-in would only be permitted 'from' the time listed on your ticket (which isn't issued when you book so how can you plan flights etc.?). I believe I am entitled to 'priority' check-in for being in the Aurea category. If I had stuck to my original Fantasica cabin, and had to abide by that check-in time, it would be the last time I'd sail MSC until this ridiculous policy changed.

You Can board when you arrive in the terminal. Normaly from around 11 o clock
