Embarkation & Disembarkation times

We would like to make the time until official embarkation or disembarkation as pleasant as possible for our individually arriving and departing guests and create an easy way to drop off your luggage. You can therefore conveniently drop off your luggage directly at the cruise terminal before embarkation in most ports. Please see the table below for the respective time slots for baggage drop-off. We ask for your understanding that, for official reasons, baggage drop-off is not permitted in every port. There are no separate Welcome and Farewell Points. 


Please note that currently only the embarkation times for the year 2026 have been published. Information regarding the ports and embarkation times for 2027 will be added shortly.

Regardless of any earlier embarkation time that may apply, your suite or cabin will be available from 16:00 hrs onward.
 
The address of the terminal will be provided in your travel documents at a later date.
