myra711 Posted June 2, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Is there a reason to do online check in now when my cruise isn't until August? Do you have to check in to book restaurants, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyclops32 Posted June 2, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 2, 2018 Is there a reason to do online check in now when my cruise isn't until August? Do you have to check in to book restaurants, etc?All that the online check in does is help speed up your actual check in. I did mine a year in advance and then I have nothing to worry about and fly thru the process. It's quick and easy so might as well do it.

Debbie I Posted June 3, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Yes, do your online check-in and PRINT your documents. As a port employee you have no idea how many people wait till the last minute and then are unable to print their documents. And please read them. Your check-in at the terminal will go much faster if you know what will be expected of you when you arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted June 3, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 3, 2018 I would agree that you should do your check-in in advance of time. Make sure you read carefully and take all it asks you to. We get through check-in very quickly and smile as we watch others waste so much time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaShark Posted June 3, 2018 #6 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Is there a reason to do online check in now when my cruise isn't until August? Do you have to check in to book restaurants, etc? Perhaps the better question would be "Is there a reason to wait . . ." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted June 3, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Complete online check in when you want. Be sure and download a copy of them and keep them on your device. There is NO NEED TO PRINT them as long as you have an electronic copy with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medtech2 Posted June 3, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Is there a reason to do online check in now when my cruise isn't until August? Do you have to check in to book restaurants, etc? I personally hate to wait until the last minute for anything and it’s a good thing I decided to do our check in back in April for our September cruise: My husband’s passport was about to expire! We did not get them the same year so I had not realized his was up. Good thing I decided to check in so early as there was no stress involved in having to renew in a hurry, or heaven forbid not able to do it at all if we waited until the trip!

There is no reason not to do it immediately. It avoids oops’ at a time when you can’t recover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DKane Posted June 6, 2018 #10 Share Posted June 6, 2018 I like to check-in early so that I get the earliest check-in time at the port. Don't know if they even check this when you enter the terminal but I'm a type A personality:) I usually go CAS and hope to get a #5 boarding pass.

On some cruise lines and at some terminals the rules are different. You don't want to be caught without something you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
