FTTF is available now but help !

[Mommawo]

 My check in time is 11:30-12:00 now but if I buy the FTTF it says time 12-1 so will that set me back on what time I can get on ship? It has been sold out forever and now 25 days out its back up for grabs

With FTTF, you can arrive as early as you want (within reason) regardless of your check-in time. That's one of the perks of FTTF so if the extra $'s and benefits of FTTF are worth it to you, then go for it.

It doesn’t matter what time your check in appointment is if you have FTTF. You can go whenever you want and just ignore the assigned time.

If you want it, get it, like NOW! Ignore the check-in time that's listed on FTTF. It doesn't apply.

Yes, reprint. Your Boarding Pass should show FTTF and Priority.

So glad you got it! I personally think it's totally worth it and you made a great decision! I wasn't trying to be mean at all, I just know they don't last long so wanted to let you know to grab it while it was still available! Yes, you'll need to reprint everything. I usually show up around 11:00am, depending upon the departure port. Happy travels!!!

Awesomely thanks. Just looked and it’s gone.  Glad I grabbed it up

Also should reprint luggage tags if you've already printed them. They also reflect priority status.

I don't know what ship and port, but generally you can get to the port around 10:00 ish and breeze right through check in.

You can check in as soon as they start letting people in to the terminal and you will board immediately after Platinum, Diamond, wedding parties, etc. One of the biggest advantages of FTTF is that your cabin will be ready as soon as you get on the ship, so you can ignore the sign on the stateroom hallway door and go right on in, drop off your bags, and go enjoy the ship without dragging luggage around.

 

You will also see a big advantage if you have to visit the Guest Services desk. Instead of waiting in a huge line, you get to go in the Platinum/Diamond line, which usually only has a couple of people in it, if that.

The default time listed for the FTTF "Excursion" is just that - a default because all excursions must have a "time".

 

So as pointed out, you have nothing to fear about arriving as early as you like (within reason!).
