Carnival ships leave from Long Beach. Two different ports not remotely close (by walking). They tried this deck thing before. Didn't work back then either. What did work is that they (firedoor) locked the floors and opened them up by scheduled time. That was a mess. Again, no one stopped you from getting on board the ship. So everyone mingled with their carry ons into the dining areas. As of May 2022 they still boarded us at 11:30 but fire doors were locked till later.

It instructed us that they would be boarding us in by deck. (We are sailing out of Long Beach at the end of the month.) In all our cruises we have never received a notice of this kind. Not sure why they made the change but are going to board when we had planned…around noon. We want to be onboard in time to eat lunch in the dining room. They send that out for pretty much all cruises leaving from San Pedro. Princess does not sail from Long Beach. It says for those that have not received their boarding groups via medallion to follow the schedule by deck. However, in reality no one cares at the terminal. Does not matter what medallion group you have or what deck. Show up when you want. If you show up before boarding starts you will receive a card based upon Captains Club status and arrival time (first arrivals board before later arrivals with the same status).

californiagirl Posted February 6, 2023 #28 Share Posted February 6, 2023 As I said we are going to arrive when we originally planned. Thanks for all the input. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
