queenL Posted March 22, 2022 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Were your boarding times enforced? We have a later boarding time than I hoped. I was wondering if they would allow us to check in if we arrived at the pier earlier or turn us away? Also, how early were you able to book entertainment?

DeputyDawg46 Posted March 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I have never seen anyone turned away at FLL. And I've heard people mentioning that they are hours early. Just line up and go with the flow. I made reservations for the shows right after I got on board and I'm generally one of the first. Got a paper copy from GS of the shows, circled the ones I wanted, and then used the app to reserve. Posted the paper copy on my room wall with a magnet for viewing throughout the week. Done in 10 minutes - tops. Was on the WoS last week and will be again next week. Enjoy your cruise. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillyFan33579 Posted March 22, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2022 I have only cruised on Celebrity recently from Port Everglades, but on recent RCI cruises from Port Miami and Port Canaveral they were strictly enforcing check-in times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are signs for lines for specific boarding times, but the checkers did not look at the boarding times when we checked-in. (We showed up about an hour early).

I would expect GS to help make the reservations, if needed, and I heard them tell someone there is also a phone number you can call. Either from your room or one of the house phones around the ship.

So I guess we will be taking your place. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonMason Posted March 23, 2022 #10 Share Posted March 23, 2022 I was scheduled for a 1:30 boarding time, got to the port around 11:15 and walked right on the ship - never even had to say “oops”… I have heard this is a pretty common Port Everglades thing though..
