    Is there any way to request an earlier port arrival time? We are platinum level and just booked a last minute cruise so have a very late boarding time.

    Hello, Heather! Thanks for sailing back to planDisney with another question. It's great to have you here. 

    Congrats on booking a last-minute cruise! How awesome that you don't have to wait long till the magic begins. Soon you'll be stepping aboard and saying goodbye to work, chores, and stress... and hello to vacation, pampering, and luxury. As a Platinum Member of the Castaway Club, you are well acquainted with all there is to look forward to during your sailing.

    If you are looking for an earlier Port Arrival Time, I recommend that you periodically sign into the My Reservations section of the Disney Cruise Line Navigator app or Disney Cruise Line website and select My Online Check-In to review the current options. Navigate to the Port Arrival section of the Online Check In, just like when you initially checked in, and see if there is an earlier time to switch to. Sometimes your fellow guests will change their plans, and it is possible that an earlier time slot might become available. I'm sending pixie dust your way with hopes that your ideal time is available to book. 

    Did you see that new cruise itineraries were recently announced? It's the perfect time to take advantage of an onboard offer placeholder and book new itineraries at a great price when you return from your sailing!

    I'm wishing you an incredible cruise. Bon Voyage!
