Usually 12:30 is when most ships allow you to board. Check your boarding documents after you complete online check-in for specific boarding times -- they may change. However, if you are one of the first people onboard the ship, your room may not be ready.

Just make certain you are onboard the ship at least 90 minutes prior to departure, otherwise, you may be denied boarding.
