What all do I need to be prepared to book during on-line check-in? What info will I need? I will probably be checking in for my entire party of 9. Thanks!

Full names, birth dates, ID info (Passport numbers, or if they're using birth certificate/DL) pre and post cruise travel information (flights, hotel, whatever). Credit card(s) number.

Have everyone’s passport info written down so you can check them off one by one without having to juggle books.

Have the flight numbers for everyone available if necessary

Have CC numbers ready for each stateroom

Determine what types of tastings people in your group are interested in so you can find and book quickly.

Kids club registration information

if your party is arriving at different times, consider what PAT you should select based on that knowledge.

I have mine in a spreadsheet so I can just copy and paste... no reading off a paper.

Perfect. Anything is better than juggling books!

FYI:
You need to book a Port Arrival Time for each cabin

Is there a way we can input all of that info ahead of time, or only when we can book activities?

Not really. You can put all of it into a spreadsheet so you can toggle screens and copy paste, but the window only opens when it opens and nothing is available for data entry until that time. For two people, it goes pretty fast. Multiple staterooms that have max occupancy, could go slower, and I would suggest the CP spreadsheet method for that.

In my experience, there is no need to do online checkin before booking activities. As long as you are paid in full, you can book when your window opens. I do book anything important to us when the window opens or the next morning. Online checkin is at my leisure now that we are platinum. Even before that, I booked activities and then did online checkin to obtain the PAT we preferred.

Is this the correct order of info that I need to input when the portal goes live?

"Full names, birth dates, ID info (Passport numbers, or if they're using birth certificate/DL) pre and post cruise travel information (flights, hotel, whatever). Credit card(s) number".

This is so I can prepare a spreadsheet in advance!

Thanks!

What time can you start online check in?

What time can you start online check in?

For the vast majority of people, midnight when your window opens. While some people were able to log in early in the past, that no longer seems to be the case.
