Dinner served with 8 pm embarkation?

[not in ks anymore]

We are booked on the Mercury Wine Cruise in October which departs at 11:59 pm, with embarkation starting at 8 pm. Our party of four is wondering if there will be dinner/buffet/any food available prior to sailing or what we can expect. Since they say embarkation starts at 8 pm, what time do you suggest we arrive at the port?

Any comments about the annual wine cruise from past cruisers also welcome, as we have had very little input from Celebrity about what different elements make this a wine-themed cruise. Thanks.

Hi,

Check-in would start approx 4.00pm, boarding cards issued; boarding starts at 8.00pm approx.

Open seating in the dining room; buffet would be set up upstairs as well.

Nothing massive as most folks would have eaten around the CanadaPlace pier area already ( lots of good eateries around, and all price ranges are covered, including McDonald !!)

Ship only arrives from Seattle around 6.30pm ( deadhead move)

Cheers

:)
