Majestic Princess Embarkation

Prior to our departure from home, we arranged a shared transfer from our Sydney hotel to the pier.  Checkout time was 11 AM at our hotel, so we waited for the shuttle in the lobby.  Our pickup time was scheduled for 11:45 AM.   The driver arrived 15 minutes early and we were on our way.  He had picked up 2 other couples already and he had two more stops to make before we arrived at the pier.

Once there, we checked our bag and went inside the terminal.  We showed our boarding passes and passports and were directed to the line for Platinum, Elite, and Suite guests.   It didn't take long and we were on our way through security and onto the ship.  For security reasons, there aren't any pictures inside the terminal area, but suffice it to say this was a quick embarkation for those with status or high-end cabins.  There were lines for the general embarkation, but even that seemed to be moving efficiently.

The second recognizable landmark in Sydney is the Harbour Bridge.   It's seen in this image captured from our balcony shortly after we got onboard Majestic Princess.

We dropped off our carryon bags and then went up to deck 16 for some lunch in the buffet.  It was then time to explore the ship before the mandatory safety drill.   In our next post, we'll cover more about our first few hours onboard Majestic.
