How to Check-In For Your Cruise – Check-In & Embarkation Process From Booking to Boarding

The check-in & embarkation process can be a daunting prospect but pretty much all cruise lines have the same check-in process, just different Apps and it’s almost always the same process when you get to the terminal on cruise day.

In this video we go through the check-in and embarkation process step by step telling you what you need to do from the time you book to the time you board, including what paperwork you will need and how we think it’s best to store it so that it is there when you need it. This information will be roughly the same whatever cruise line you have booked with.
