Question about back to back cruises

[gometros]

We were on board the Magic last week and rebooked while on board. The deal was so good, that we toyed momentarily with doing a back to back cruise. Just curious. If you book the same stateroom, can you leave you luggage in the room, or do you have to completely disembark and go through the whole check in process again?

We were able to leave all our stuff in the room. We waited until everyone disembarked, then we were escorted off the ship straight to check-in, and then escorted back on again. Its very nice having the ship to yourself for a few hours, though be prepared for lots of odd looks from the workers who are frantically cleaning everything down for the new arrivals!

Flibs.

Even if you are changing rooms (like we did). You leave your luggage in your room (packed of course) and they will take it to your new room. Same thing about getting off the ship and turning around and getting right back on the ship. they will leave instructions in your room on what to do.

Very cool. Thanks for the responses.

It is a really neat experience to stay onboard while everyone else leaves and you have the ship to yourselves (and the other B2Bers).

We booked the same cabin so we wouldn't have to pack up. Especially nice since we were on the Wonder so they were SHORT 3/4 night cruises. We actually had a large group doing back-to-backs so they had us meet in the main lobby and exit as a group and then check back in as a group and finally re-board as a group. The whole process took about like 30-40 minutes or something. You just take your paperwork, credit card an ID's with you.
