We are leaving on the 10/27/02. We are overnighting at the Radisson. What time should we get to the port. We are traveling with my mother who is wheel chair bound and crowds will over whelm her and make her nervous and she is already nervos enoguh? But I want to get there in time to be first in line to make my DS Oceaneers ressie's?

Any advice :)
 
I would get to the port early...say 10:30 ish if you want to avoid crowds getting into the terminal. I know it's early, but by 11:00 or so tons of people are filing into the terminal. This way you will be there and get situated before the big crowds. Talk to the CM at the terminal and explain your situation with the wheelchair. I know I have seen them board wheelchair bound guests first, before they let anyone else board. This may be just what you need.

You may have to wait around for two hours but it won't be too bad.

You do not need to arrive any earlier than 10:30. The port does not allow you in before then. From what I saw last week, they seemed to let mobile impaired people in first( they were in a separate line). Check on this when you are checking in. The longer you wait to get to the port the longer the lines get at check in.

We got to the port at 10:30 and were the first in line:D .

You shouldn't have a problem checking in your DS at the club. If you go there after you eat lunch you will be one of the few there. Plus he will have a chance to look around by himself. If you wait until the evening you will be in a long line.
 
So I need to be at Flounders at noon to make reservastions for the baby and then I can register my other son (4 years old) after lunch?

Where do I go to make the Flounders ressies?

Thanks and can't wait!
 

We didn't have to use Flounders so I'm not sure where to go or what time but they do give you a sheet with all this info when you check in at the port. The ship usually starts boarding between noon and 12:30.
 
If youre one of the 1st to arrive at 1030 (Im hoping to be) you can meet the other DISers when they arrive! Im planning on it Nov 30th
