Vitamin Sea Addict Posted February 22, 2019 #76 Share Posted February 22, 2019 We're out of Galveston on the Vista on March 24 with a 12-12:30 boarding time. Zone of A2. We sailed out of there in October with no zones so I have no clue what it actually means. I figure they'll tell us what to do but the detail side of me wants to know what the plan is 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imluvncruzn Posted February 22, 2019 #78 Share Posted February 22, 2019 I sailed on Feb. 11th on the Sensation. I am platinum and had a 12-12:30 check-in time and boarding zone B4. It meant nothing. We got to port at 11:00am and proceeded to the Priority Lounge and boarded like we normally do with other Platinum members. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It said lower on the pass that I am in Muster E. I am Platinum, same arrival appointment time, and A-2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosieangel Posted April 11, 2019 #80 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Just printed mine off for my cruise in May, and my boarding zone is A01. We have faster to the fun, so maybe that just means we get on quickly? My muster drill station on the Conquest is D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having FTTF means that you will get on about one minute before your original zone of A01. Og course there are still the tendering, GS and other benefits.

TNcruising02 Posted April 12, 2019 #82 Share Posted April 12, 2019 (edited) I am on the Magic in June out of Port Everglades. My arrival appointment is 12:00 - 12:30 and my boarding zone is A15. I am gold and do not have FTTF. Edited April 12, 2019 by TNcruising02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vidimom Posted April 13, 2019 #83 Share Posted April 13, 2019 We are sailing in June on the Miracle and this will be my Diamond cruise. I got Boarding Zone A01 too and we have a check in time of 11:30 to 12:00 so I think it does vary by ship some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAMMY400099 Posted November 26, 2019 #84 Share Posted November 26, 2019 So did anyone find out what the boarding zones actually mean? We are on Panorama in February. Arrival time 12:30-1:00 our boarding zone is A01 no FTTF no diamond or platinum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it comes time to board the ship, the boarding zones will be called in order after the priority passengers (diamonds, platinums, suites, and Faster to the Fun), beginning with zone A01. Then they will call A02, etc. Edited November 28, 2019 by TNcruising02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my Sunrise cruise back in June, my boarding doc said A01 zone yet the port was still giving out the old fashion boarding zone cards and all of the boarding announcements was based on those zone cards . i guess not all ports support this new boarding zone on the edocs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder why they would even print the boarding zone on the boarding pass if they weren't going to use it. On my cruises, when the zone wasn't on the boarding pass, they handed out the cards. But my last two cruises had the boarding zones on the passes and that's the way they boarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TNcruising02 Posted November 28, 2019 #94 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Well, when the boarding is done the new way, the boarding zone is supposed to replace the zone tickets people get when they arrive at the port. When doing online check-in and choosing an arrival time, that's when a boarding zone may be assigned. That's the way it worked on my cruise on the Magic and on the Breeze this year. For the Magic, I got a boarding zone B13 or something like that. Then when I was able to purchase Faster to the Fun, I reprinted my boarding passes a few days later and my boarding zone changed. For my Breeze cruise, I checked in online at midnight, so I got boarding zone A01 and they definitely used the boarding zones on the boarding passes. They did not hand out boarding zone tickets at the port. Maybe it's just taking some time for all of the ports and cruises to change over to the new way. The new way is much better, in my opinion.

First time on Carnival so I’m a bit lost here. Typically, suite passengers board after the Diamond/Platinum passengers. I'm not sure if they are right before or right after the FTTF. Cheers!

This would be in lieu of the zone cards that some ports give out. I would expect no changes to the priority ones, but for non priority passengers yes. Has anyone seen these yet? They are due out any day now. I have priority boarding, so I don't know what it would look like with the zones, but attached is what it looks like for our cruise on 21 Dec.
