Check In-Galveston


Trisha

Recommended Posts

I am making arrangements for a shuttle to the port in Galveston. Is there a time that is usually the easiest to check in? Least crowded, etc?

 

Thanks.

I am coming up on my third cruise now and my only advice is get there before they start boarding if you can. It is always busy. That way you get on the ship early and you get a longer vacation. Only by a couple hours of course. Also it helps to get on board with nobody else on so you can find everything quickly.

BUT, don't get there so early that the haven't finished debarking the previous cruise yet.

 

We clearly saw staff turning folks away when we were leaving the ship.

 

We left the Tremont House at 11:30 and walked over to the ship ourselves...maybe it took us all of 15 minutes. Once we entered the terminal....there was a line and no one was being checked in as of yet. I'm thinking they started the checkin process at 12pm.

 

Getting their earlier will only mean you stand in line longer
