Capt_BJ Posted September 16, 2018 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2018 it is late but there are several routine things that can cause delays, for example regularly scheduled Coast Guard inspections ..... saw the same sort of thing on a Disney trip not long ago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In port everglades I was on the ship at 10:45. No, that is about an hour late. We sailed Oasis September 2nd and we boarded around 11:15am. They had announced we were boarding just before 11 but it didn't start until around 11:15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

champagne123 Posted September 16, 2018 #8 Share Posted September 16, 2018 One cruise (not RCCL) had a wedding party, arriving 2 hours late. Ugh....we did not board until about 1pm. From my understanding, Bridal parties board first? Does RC do this also? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my STH100-1 using Forums mobile app Good to know, Ken. It was really very upsetting for many people, as there was no where to sit. Many disabled and elderly people standing for 2 extra hours. Absolutely unforgivable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my STH100-1 using Forums mobile app Back in October when we boarded oasis, my co workers from work were getting married in Central Park. They were supposed to board first... well we boarded first 30 minutes before them! So that doesn’t always work Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SC_Floaters Posted September 16, 2018 #12 Share Posted September 16, 2018 sitting in Port Canaveral waiting to board. On the tv it says anticipated boarding is 12:00. Is this normal? In port everglades I was on the ship at 10:45. It's just pas noon now. Hope you're on board. Sometimes that is Royal's best guess... If they say Noon and you board at 11 then you are a real happy camper but if they say 11AM and you do not board to Noon you will be making lots of bad RCI posts...

GTO-Girl Posted September 16, 2018 #13 Share Posted September 16, 2018 We sail out of Canaveral a lot and it seems they TV screens in the terminal always say 12:00 for approx boarding time. We have always boarded way before that time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dahlia11 Posted September 23, 2018 #18 Share Posted September 23, 2018 sitting in Port Canaveral waiting to board. On the tv it says anticipated boarding is 12:00. Is this normal? In port everglades I was on the ship at 10:45. There were in excess of 100 back to back passengers on our cruise. They were called first, marched up the gangway AND stopped by security. They couldn't board the ship because their documentation/sea pass cards were not done properly. My wife and a every body behind them waited and waited and waited on the gangway until the snafu was resolved. I'm pretty sure you felt the ripple effect of that delay.
