Fantasy check in?

[Lawdawg]

Has anyone booked on the Fantasy in early Sept been able to start online check in yet? We are booked in late Sept. and was just wondering.

They have without issue checked in. We confirmed it a few days ago for those on the September 4th cruise.

We sail on 11/6 so not yet. But I do wish that we could at least do Safe Passage 60 days in advance to allow more time to get confirmation and get any glitch fixed.

60 days wont really give you anything that 33 days gives you. I registered right at the 33 day mark and uploaded our vaccine cards immediately. Within 24 hours, we were Clear.

After that, it's just waiting until 5 days before to do the PCR test for any unvax in the cabin.

We completed check-in for the Sept 04 cruise with no issues. The only thing left is our pictures pending CM review. All else went smooth. Our Safe Passage is all Clear to sail too.

Lucky you. I'm seeing all sorts of reported problems. What it gives is 27 extra days.

Yes but all that does is flood Safe Passage with more people to check earlier. They will still prioritize those sailing first, so even if you upload 27 days earlier, all that might do is add 27 days while your picture sits there until someone looks at it. Unless they add more staff to clear people, that is really the only way to ensure things get done faster. I think they are just understaffed (I sent questions via email, took a week to get a response)

I get it, people want to know as fast as they can that they didn't miss anything but I'm not sure giving you more time will accomplish that.

Which only benefits those who's entire party is eligible to submit proof of vaccine. If you are required to take a pre-cruise test, you can't take that test until you are 5 days out from the sail date.

Checked in this morning for 9/11 Fantasy - no issues - took about 10 mins. Photos are pending approval.

Checked in for the September 4 sailing with no issues. Everyone was very eager to grab their port arrival times so most people in our cruise group chose to stay up late that night and submit all their paperwork to DCL at midnight.

Thanks for the update. Good to hear. We're next week and have six people with two cabins.

Do you mind sharing if you used the phone app or did it via computer? I've heard some people had issues using PCs and/or laptops. Thanks.

So it's 33 days, not 30 days? We sail 9/25, trying to figure out when we can check in.

You can create the Safe Passage account at 33 days.

Check in for the cruise on the DCL website is at 30 days.

I uploaded the photos from my phone then did the rest of the check in on my laptop.

were the photos just in your camera roll or had you saved them somewhere else?
