I'm breaking down everything you need to know to complete your online check in for Disney Cruise Line.Here are some tips to speed up the process, so you can get through each item quickly and select your port arrival time. The Online Check-In is when you upload your travel documents (passport or birth certificate and government issued-ID), complete a few forms, add your onboard form of payment, etc. This is also when you select a port arrival time and get assigned a boarding group number! The date of your online check-in is determined by your Castaway Club status (how many times you've sailed with Disney Cruise Line). This means that new cruisers often get the latest port arrival times and boarding groups. Here are the dates scheduled for each Castaway Club status (booking opens right at midnight EST): Pearl and Concierge: 40 days prior to sailing Platinum: 38 days prior to sailing Gold: 35 days prior to sailing Silver: 33 days prior to sailing First-Time Guests / General: 30 days prior to sailing Pro tip: For First-Time Disney Cruisers, booking the Disney Cruise transportation can often get you an earlier port arrival time (although not a guarantee)!
