Vancouver Embarkation Advice

[Dandylyon]

Hello all.

 

We are on the Summit, embarking on July 30 out of Vancouver. We just got our cruise docs (hurray!). The docs mention that U.S. Customs and Border personnel do not arrive at the piers in Vancouver before 12:00 noon.

 

We were hoping to board early, as many of you mentioned that you enjoy doing.

 

Have any of you experienced boarding in Vancouver recently? Can we arrive before noon, or should we arrive later?

 

Thanks for any advice!

Dandylyon..... I think...I think....that noon is probably early enough?

 

We arrived around 11:30 ish.... and were able to process through. ....but we were very early...and things had just begun to move.

We just returned from Alaska cruise. We arrived at the cruise port around 11:30 and probably on the ship a little after noon. We were probably in the first 25 people to board.

 

Disembarkation was a breeze. Wish US ports handled it as well.

Dandylon,

 

My friend Ben and I are on the same cruise. We plan on being ready to board at 11:30. Even if it is shortly after noon at least we will be in the first group.

Thanks for the info, everyone.

 

Walter, perhaps we'll see you there!
