Miami, Florida Port Q&A

Arrival appointments begin typically around 10/1030ish but no one typically boards until closer to 11 (usually). Just remember that when you check in online, that you are picking your arrival time NOT your boarding time. You’ll get assigned a boarding zone and that is when you’ll be able to board the ship

Anticipate around 11am. I’d recommend picking an arrival time after then if you want to minimize waiting in the terminal.

it depends on your check in time. follow thedirections in the app.

it varies based on when customs and the coast guard clears the ship. they usually start check in between 10-1030am and they usually want/ try to start boarding 11-1130am. I've had times that they start boarding at 11am, and last year, we couldn't start to board until 130pm

Usually 10-11:30am but you have the choice to set your arrival time on Royal and Carnival ships in the app

Depends on the time you choose to check in. I think it starts as early as 11 am.
