Help! Boarding time?

[beezercatz]

We are leaving on the Constellation on the Jan. 14th sailing to the Southern Caribbean from San Juan. We are coming in the night before and hope to do a little sight-seeing the day of the cruise. It says on our ticket that the ship doesn't sail until 11:00PM (That's 23 hundred).

 

When is the earliest that we can check in on the ship? We don't want to leave our luggage at our hotel, since it is quite a ways away from the port. We'd rather leave it on the ship and then go sight-see.

 

If someone else is leaving on that sailing, do I have the right info? Since it's coming up quickly....

 

Thanks,

 

Judy

They start boarding as soon as the previous passengers debark and the ship is ready. That can be as early as 10:30 but usually around 11-11:30. You can usually check your luggage onto the ship ahead of time and leave for the day as long as the porters are available.
