These were the choices...... It says arrival, so you would think boarding would be soon after or having the groups after you to start stacking up. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In normal times, probably 75% of the ship would be there by 12:15pm. LOL. Well, 2/3?? And I consider 11:30 arrival in pre-Covid times to be late for us. Would not even make it for general boarding start. LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChangeOrder Posted June 23, 2021 #13 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I don’t have any special status and a basic cabin, and I suspect they just turned on the feature to choose boarding groups in the app to everyone this morning. I can’t get a boarding group for my bookings next year, but the one next month is open. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crystabel Posted June 23, 2021 #16 Share Posted June 23, 2021 (edited) Thanks for the heads up! I just chose our boarding time and it says “Group A, 11:30 AM - 11:45 AM”. We are Elite status. Never got any notice from Princess that boarding times had opened up. Edited June 23, 2021 by Crystabel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Ombud Posted June 23, 2021 #19 Share Posted June 23, 2021 I was able to get 11:30-11:45 for my 8/15/21 cruise. Assuming they keep up the 15 minute slots, it should be fairly smooth. Just health status on my to-do list (+ packing / flight / just got my house sitter so Koda can stay home) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sprocket Posted June 23, 2021 #20 Share Posted June 23, 2021 We only have one prior cruise and I was able to select Group A for 11:30 am. We are staying overnight prior to the cruise so this is perfect for us. No email but I check daily so happy I logged on early today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voljeep Posted June 23, 2021 #21 Share Posted June 23, 2021 how far out ( cruise date ) can you book these arrival times ? and am I as complete as I can be if I'm at that step now in the app with checks on the first three items - now showing 'green lane' ?

I looked at our next one out, 10/31/21, and I can't choose arrival time on that one yet. Not surprised. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No advance notice, I just saw on CC that this option was now available so I went and reserved a time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Denmal Posted June 23, 2021 #24 Share Posted June 23, 2021 So based on these posts - looks like you get to choose arrival times about 2 months out. Has anyone been able to link another couple to your reservation and then book a arrival time for the group ? We are sailing in November with another couple and We are elite and they are not - Hope to get to group them with us for arrival time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
