We are going on the VOS 12/9/06 and are anxious. We are staying at the port holiday inn and the ship says that it doesn't board until 5pm. Does anyone know if we can board earlier, and if so, what time would be safe to leave the hotel area to get to the pier. I have 3 kids with me so I really don't want to stand around at the pier too much.

Thanks. Great board

We usually go about 11:00 and are on board around noon. If you go that early you can't go to your cabin so you will have to cart your carry on luggage around. I wouldn't go any earlier that that since they don't usually start boarding until noon at the earliest.

check your boarding time again, if you are sailing Voyager or Vision of seas, the sail time is 5 pm. You can usually board by noon, lunch will be available upstairs in the Windjammer cafe.The turn around on cabins is pretty fast by noon you should be able to take your carry on luggage there first, then grab a bite to eat, explore the ship,the activity area for chidren, etc and relax....your on vacation!

I'm sure you can get on by Noon. That gives you time to eat and look around a little, then you can put your things in your stateroom and then do some further explanation without carrying your things all around with you. Pack our bathing suits in your carry-ons if you can, as I think you should be on early enough to spend some time by the pool. Enjoy!
