gopackgo21 Posted February 5 #1 Share Posted February 5 Just got an email that the Jubilee will be leaving at 8pm instead of 4pm on Feb 24th. Anyone know why? Also, will this mean we board late as well? I’ve had delays but usually they’re communicated closer to the cruise. Not 3 weeks out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarzanagirl Posted February 5 #4 Share Posted February 5 February 24 is the official naming ceremony I think so maybe that’s why? 🤷♀️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gopackgo21 Posted February 6 Author #7 Share Posted February 6 I do see they updated the time we leave on my Itinerary. I’d like to know more about why and if it’s going to affect boarding time as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's also a column on Bing that does indicate that the ship has not been officially named and that will happen on Feb 24th! So maybe that is the reason - and we'll get to be part of that!

cruisinpips Posted February 6 #9 Share Posted February 6 From the web…. Carnival Jubilee debuted with a Texas-sized splash just before Christmas at the Port of Galveston, but the ship hasn't been officially named yet. That will change Feb. 24, when Carnival Cruise Line's third Excel-class vessel is scheduled to be named at the Port of Galveston. The festivities will take place at Terminal 25, Carnival Jubilee's year-round home. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SunriseCoffee Posted February 10 #11 Share Posted February 10 Did everyone get a boarding time? We were a little disappointed that boarding was delayed boarding because of the private naming ceremony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were a little disappointed that boarding was delayed boarding because of the private naming ceremony. I am not platinum yet so I just checked in and got a 1:30-2. Curious what the diamond and plats got. We usually prefer a later boarding time but not 6pm late! I’m anticipating it being a zoo at embarkation with everyone not sticking to arrival times. Also wondering if rooms will be ready for all at boarding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kganzenmuller Posted February 10 #14 Share Posted February 10 We're Platinum and the first available boarding time was noon when we checked in. For those who don't know, one of the benefits is checking in 2 days prior to the normal check in. Also we received the following in an email: "Dear Diamond & Platinum Guests, You may have heard that Carnival Jubilee’s naming ceremony will be taking place Saturday, February 24. To ensure a smooth experience for our guests and manage all the activities, Terminal Arrival Appointments will begin at noon. Please DO NOT arrive prior to your Terminal Arrival Appointments as they will be STRICTLY ENFORCED and all guests who arrive outside their designated times will be asked to return. Although the ceremony itself will be an invitation-only affair, we are delighted to share that it will be televised on big screens around the vessel, starting at 3:30 PM.
