When Can You Board Norwegian Escape?
Norwegian puts an embarkation time on your eDocs and asks that you arrive no earlier than one hour before it. It highly encourages boarding no later than two hours before the departure time in the same eDocs.
The arrival time on your own boarding pass is the one that governs your sailing.
