Stretch limo with stocked bar does sound like the perfect start to vacation:)

We are flying into Miami and cruising out of Fort Lauderdale. Is there a shuttle. What would be the best option. Thanks for your help.

We are booked on the Allure room 10197. Central Park View w/balcony. Wondering if this area is loud, and you can tell me thing about the cabin.

After I book a crusie, I'm here all the time. I feel like I'm on the ship. To sad when I don't have a sailing booked. So I guess I must keep one booked all the time.:D:D:D:D:D:D

You won't have to worry about any of this, Allure uses the old Seapass cards handed out at the pier terminal. You can ignore the boarding time issue.

Thank you

Your photo is no longer printed on RCI regular or non-RFID card if that's what you are thinking of. It's stored electronically as a digital print accessible when your Sea Pass card's bar code is read or RFID card is scanned. You can upload your photo yourself or have it taken by the agent at the check in like is being done for non-RFID ships.

Also your photo shows up when your card is scanned for purchases so that should prevent other from using a stolen card.

I noticed people mentioned boarding time. We have only crusie on RC smaller ships. We are crusing on Allure in Jan. We have never had a boarding time. Is this something only for the larger ship. Very concerned about sea pass being on the doors. Couldn't anyone take them and charge items. What are the waist bands?

Thank you.

After my March cruises. I will have been on every ship in the current fleet. Except for Mariner, Voyager, and Ovation.

You must hardly gets your bags unpacked before your packing again. :) I wish we could go more often we love to crusie.

Thank you so much.

We are crusing out of Boston in Oct 2016 with Royal Caribbean. Our return flight isn't till 900pm. I was wondering if there is something we could do with our luggage so we didn't have to sit in the airport for 9 hours and could go site seeing instead. Our original thought was we could have it checked with RC Valet baggage service, but I guess they don't off the service in Boston. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I thought I heard on our last crusie you had the option to have your luggage sent to the airport and be checked by RC Does any one if this is true and if there is a charge?

We have never snorkeled before, our daughter really want to go with her boyfriend. Which port would be the best? Is there a place you could rent equipment and snorkel off shore on your own or would it be best to do an excursion. Would you book private or with the cruise line. Thanks for your help:confused:

Great ideas thank you

Wow, I don't know what to say.

Money not really being the issue, I just thought it would be kind of hectic to get a room check in and out get to the port later to wait in-line again. I very much appreciate everyone advise, and will way the pro's and con's.

(until I read this post I didn't know you could rent a room for a short time, but I guess they wouldn't care they still get the same amount of money) :)

BlueHerons I didn't take any offense to you comment just a little shock, You do have great points.

Like I stated earlier I really appreciate everyone advise, and this is one of the great things about this site is all the different views. Thank you

Could not agree with you more about Jamaica!

I also agree about Jamaica. We would also stay on the Ship.

Curious about what airline departs DEN midnight for Florida? MIA or FLL airports? .I actually like Redeyes. Thanks.

Frontier Airline

I can't imagine spending that much time at FLL :eek:

 

I may have been at the port much earlier than you would like too...but at least I was on the ship by 11:00am :D

I do like the idea of getting to the cruise port and on the ship as early as possible.

Thank you to everyone for the wonderful idea's. Not sure what we are doing yet but, I do like the idea of getting to board the ship first thing. Let the relaxing vacation begin :)

If you take an overnight flight, when u arrive, me thinks that you may be tired---you don't say from where you are flying from...That being said, I don't know what you want to do ----there's not a lot around the airport--there's never a lot around an airport.

 

Also, probably, you will have your luggage by 6 or 6:30/6:45 am possibly the latest. Depending on what day (weekday? weekend?) It may take at least an hour to get to POM. Are you arranging for your own shuttle or the ship's? If it's the ship's, you will have to wait until everyone on that plane has boarded the shuttle, which can take a long time...Or are you booking your own? So, if all goes as planned, you may get to the POM at 8-8:30 if you book on your own..... My guess is that RC will allow you to board at about 11am, which, in that case, as you said, you will catch the buffet and a deck chair and take a nap.....Hope this helps.....

We are flying in from Denver Co. we leave at midnight mountain time and get in at 5:25 am eastern time on a Monday. It's about a 3 1/2 hour flight. I was wondering if there was some place in the airport to take it easy and get some breakfast. There is four of us so I think it would cheaper to take a shuttle. I don't mind getting to the port early but I wouldn't want to wait outside until they open. Thank you for your advise.

Do you know how early (SAS) will pick you up. Did you have to wait outside the port very long before they opened.

Thanks

We had to make some crazy flight plans to work in a family wedding. We are taking a overnight flight and arrive at Ft Lauderdale at 5:30am on 8/25/2014, not sure what is the best plan when we arrive.

Wondering if it is best to wait at the airport till later to catch a shuttle to POM or is there other stuff you can do around the airport to kill time. I don't think shuttles run that early anyway and what would be do once we got to the port that early.

We are cruising on Royal Caribbean. Does anyone know how early you can get into the port terminal, it would be nice to be one of the first to board the ship. By that time we will just want to find a deck chair and caught a nap. :D Thanks for you help

Cruising is so much easier when you can fly in the night before :)

Majesty of the Seas for our daughters 21st in August 2014

Legend of the Seas for our 30th Anniversary in January 2015

Vision of the Seas just for fun :) in January 2016

Kind of crazy we normally go on a cruise every couple of years

Explorer to NewEngland/Canada for the 2nd time, 3rd time on Explorer. Explorer is the only ship we have sailed on more than once. It sails from driving distance. Itinerary is not new either, but only 1 repeated port. Different ship and different itinerary help keep things fresh.

We did the New England/Canada Cruise on the Brilliance of the Sea . :)and loved every minute of it. We have a three other cruising before I can plan another New England/Canada trip but it will happen :)

We are cruise on RC out of Miami, but most of the flight searches show Ft Lauderdale is cheaper to Fly into. Is there a shuttle that would take you to the RC port in Miami. Any tip or advise would be greatly appreciated.

where can you find what the different colored and lettered categories mean?
