How do they determine boarding number?

So boarding numbers are given at the terminal? Was able to get an 11am PAT (yay!) at midnight last night!

You will be given your boarding number when you check in at the counter.

We were on the wonder in September last year. First time cruisers with 11amPAT. We got boarding number four and were onboard just after 12

My PIF date and my online check-in date are the same. I assumed that was typical; after reading this thread I am not so sure....

As the online checkin/excursion window opens at different times, based on Castaway Club level, the PIF date and the booking/checkin window won't always be the same. And some cruises have earlier PIF date than others, so, again, may not be the same as the booking/checkin window.

The PIF date for most guests is the same. The booking window varies based on concierge @ 120 days, platinum CC members @ 120 days, gold CC @ 105 days, silver @ 90 days, and first-time cruisers @ 75 days.
