Maybe RCCL is better at shooing people off the ship.

Just a heads up for people driving to the port to sail the Treasure. We had an 11:45 PAT on 10/18. They did not let us in the terminal until almost 12:00.

So you got into the terminal less than 15 minutes after your scheduled time? Seems like a minor issue.

Having a Port Arrival Time (PAT) opposed to a Boarding Time does confuse people (not saying you are one of them). It is not uncommon that people think the PAT is the time you can expect to get onto the ship ---- when it is actually the time you are allowed to enter the terminal to start the check-in process.

The last group disembarks at 915. I believe they give you a disembarking time. I don't think they have scheduled breakfast times so leaving the ship is a little more staggered.

On some cruise lines that is the time you check in and walk on the ship. I could see where that could be confusing if you are not used to the way Disney does it.
