Priority tender for Aurea

[freeon]

I read a comment the other day that with Aurea you have priority tender. Anyone know if this is true? If so how does it work? I also read for none Aurea if you want to get off early you either have to book an excursion with the ship or go get a tender number at the casino or somewhere and have to be early, like 6:30 AM. With Aurea can we just skip the lines anytime we want to disembark? If it matters this will be on Seashore and at George Town.

IIRC, it works like the priority tendering for Diamond. It only applies to tendering OFF the ship, not back on. You don't get to skip any lines. What happens is, people get tender tickets. If you are Aurea/Diamond, you go to a separate meeting place at a specified time to get off the ship sometime around when tendering starts. You still won't be the first ones off the ship, as those with early excursions will get priority. Really, this just means you won't have to line up somewhere to get a tender ticket with the non-priority passengers.

What if you are Aurea and Gold status?  Gold gets priority, correct?

Ah, you are correct. I mistakenly said Diamond earlier.

thanks, is it both?  We have 2 Aurea cabins coming up.  I room is gold but the other is not.  Do we both get priority tender?

So, I haven't been able to find anything that says Aurea gets priority tendering. Maybe @freeon cam come back and tell us where they saw that.

I saw it on a 2 year old post on Reddit. Poster stated that there was no mention of it when booking so it was a nice surprise. Was a small comment on a big post and didn't go into much details.

Hi all! Aurea on its own does not include priority tendering. Gold and Diamond status do. Hope that helps!

Thanks, can the couple with gold status drag along the couple from the other room who don't have it?

Not officially, it should just be for those in the same cabin. They didn't even check my sister's debarkation ticket, so what I would actually do is spilt the couples. Have one non-gold get off with a gold, if that makes sense. Cabins isn't what they're checking during debarkation.
