They have been pretty strict since the restart. I have been on 4 cruises out of Long Beach and they are definitely having people wait in section until the correct time.

I'd suggest stopping somewhere in Long Beach for lunch first.

like another said, they make you stand in a line for each half hour arrival time. But if things go smoothly, they bring the lines in as soon as the previous lines are through. when I sailed it looked all the lines were in by noon.

This port is a well-oiled machine! Arrive earlier than your time but not too early. Last summer we got there an hour before our tima and they let us in. The terminal is comfy and they know how to work it!
