PS staying in haven, not sure what time they let you on the ship. Thanks

Since "official" boarding is scheduled to begin at noon, I would imagine Haven and priority boarding begins sometime between 11:00 and 11:30.

The first groups were called at about 11:15 the week I was aboard.

Haven guests are boarded around 11:00 (on our cruise, it was more like 10:45).

Is this different from the Arrival Time on you on-line check in? Because for the 8/25 sailing, we could pick from times as early as 9 or 9:30 I believe. But this is our first cruise, so maybe I'm not clear on the terminology here.

Boarding begins when the ship is ready, usually between 11:15 and 11:45. Sometimes a little earlier, rarely later.

On my recent trip on the Bliss, I picked an early arrival time like 9:30 a.m.. This is done to spread out the people arriving to check in, but has NO bearing on when you will be allowed on the ship. We were checked in at 9:30 a.m., but given a group 5 boarding group, after all of the Haven, higher level loyalty people, etc. We were in the first group of regular passengers to board, around 11:30 - 11:45 a.m. A lot of sitting around. Might as well be in your hotel in my opinion. If I had it to all over again, I would just pick 11:30, arrive at 11:30, and probably board around 11:30 a.m.

Thanks! that's helpful. We have an arrival time of 11-11:30 so it sounds like we've got a good time. I just want to be able to grab a few reservations for the race track that day before they fill up, or my kids will really give us grief! :)

Based on the many reviews I’ve read for the Bliss, I would probably get there a little earlier (10:30) for a non-haven room. This way you can get on board quickly and get to a screen to book. If it’s that imposrtant to their enjoyment, I wouldnt risk it because I wanted zero line to get on the ship. You’ll maybe be waiting 1-1.5 hours. In the grand scheme of things, it’s not much time.
