Carnival Legend Galveston Check-In Time At The Cruise Terminal:
Guests will need to follow their arrival appointment as to when to arrive at the cruise terminal. Both cruise terminals (25 and 28) have signage and lines for guests that arrive early for their arrival appointment and for those that arrive on-time. You may be able to enter the cruise terminal early if you arrive before your arrival appointment, but this is not guaranteed. Also, make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to get to the cruise terminal as after Carnival's published final boarding time the cruise terminal will be closed and you will have missed your cruise.
Check-in for the Carnival Legend out of Galveston usually consists of a documentation/identification and boarding pass check. Guests will also go through the security screening area. Sail & Sign cards are available in the stateroom mailbox once on the ship.
