How Long Does the Debarkation Procedure Take?
The average seems to be two to three hours. The ship’s crew must unload all baggage onto the pier and the ship itself must be cleared by U.S. Customs before any passengers are allowed to leave. Just relax in one of the public areas and you will hear the announcement when the ship is cleared. It is wise to make your return airline reservation to depart after 1:00 p.m. This will give you enough time to get off of the, get your luggage and get to the airport 1 – 2 hours before your flight depart.
