Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Solo Travel 1974.

  1. Complete online check-in 21 days before sailing to secure your embarkation time.

  2. Book shows in the Headliner Theatre 14 days before the cruise.

  3. Arrive at the terminal at your assigned embarkation time; arriving early won't help.

  4. If traveling with friends in separate cabins, arrive together at the latest time slot.

  5. Head to the Keys or Taste 360 for a less crowded embarkation lunch.

  6. Pack swimwear in your hand luggage if you want to use the pools immediately.

  7. Use the stairs instead of lifts during embarkation as they are much faster.

  8. Allow 1 hour from leaving the ship to arriving in central Dublin.
