Carnival Splendor / Carnival Paradise Check In at the Queen Mary in Long Beach

Early Check In is at 9:30 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. on the Queen Mary. The only drawback to early check in is you stand around with nothing to do. So, the best thing to do is stay overnight at the Queen Mary. Then go down and do the Carnival check in at the Queen Mary (Located Towards the Aft of the ship). If you need to directions just ask the front desk how to get there. Then when you are done with check in, you can walk back to your room on the Queen Mary and relax a bit if you like. Check out later at the Queen Mary and then walk to the Cruise Terminal Parking Garage and drop off your luggage. You don't have to stand in line all that time.

Luggage Questions: If you are taking a transfer bus, it will all be taken care of for you. If you are driving, pull up to curb and porters will unload. Tip about a buck a bag then go park your car. Of course have your pre printed luggage tags secured well. Next time you see your bags will be outside your room. Don't panick if your bags aren't by your room by sailaway. It takes awhile to get everyone's bags to their rooms.

While your waiting for your cabin to be ready go have lunch on Lido and enjoy.
