Ft. Lauderdale (Port Everglades), Florida Port Q&A

You need to set up a check-in time either on the App or website. Things run smoother and faster if you stick to your set check-in time, no more then 15 to 20 min early. Things become back logged with long lines and taking longer because of all those who who just think they don't need to go at the time they set up and everyone is there when they first open to for check-in!

They don’t enforce check in times. Last two cruises people in line ahead of us had check in times an hour or more later than us. Nobody said a word

If the weather is crappy, you will have to stand outside and wait for your time slot to be called. This is the new policy ever since the Covid Changes..

It is actually an arrival time. You may board the ship much later, depending on how slowly things go at the port.

2 weeks before your cruise you'll be able to do online check in and that's when you choose your boarding time!

When you check in you will choose a time slot.

Check in time really doesn't matter much. Just show up when you show up and when they are ready, they will let you board. I usually show up between 11 and noon if possible so I can get on and grab lunch.
