Carnival Cruise Line Expands Staggered Embarkation

Carnival Cruise Line has added staggered check-in to six additional cruise ports in 2017.

How it Works

Under the staggered check-in process, guests will pick a time to board when they’re checking in online. They will then be able to arrive at the port up to 30 minutes before the check-in begins. Available check-in times are between 11 am and 3 pm. Any guest who arrives before their time will be denied and asked to return during their check-in window.

Status Still Has Priority
