When Can You Board Carnival Magic?
Carnival gives you an Arrival Appointment, chosen during online check-in — the time everyone in your cabin should be at the terminal. You must be on board by the Final Boarding time printed on your boarding pass.
The arrival time on your own boarding pass is the one that governs your sailing.
