No, he doesn't have to request permission to come aboard. I'd imagine that they "piped" him aboard as "Commander in Chief, arriving".


According the Fox News, Bush was piped aboard as
"United States arriving."  The phrase gets me choked up.
Apparently heads of state are piped aboard in that fashion.

Thanks. I didn't think CIC was correct.
