The steps for disembarkation probably start on the last night of the cruise, where usually at some point late into the night or early in the morning, you will get a statement of your account, your shipboard account, of all the charges that you may have on the cruise. Assuming that that's fine, you have nothing else to do with that. You're set to go. On the day of disembarkation, there are different ways to do this but the standard way is that you are given a color-coded tag that you put on your luggage, and people are disembarked by color. It is to avoid three thousand people on a large ship all getting off at once. They call different colors - there's several hundred people at a time, or however large the group is. They keep calling colors, and people disembark that way in an orderly fashion.
