Woah.... I got a response! They said they won't take reservations that far in advance until the end of the month.... Thanks for all the comments!

I've reached out through email to Smith's twice now, and there has been no response back? Is this normal or should I be concerned? Perhaps its too early to inquire the trip is in October. Thanks in advance.

we have booked Smiths. We have arranged for pickup at Gatwick, stop at Stonehenge and then drop off in Southampton. Excellent customer service so far and very reasonably priced.

Thank you very much! I need the exact opposite minus the stonehenge!

Thanks very much for the replies! I disembark on Sunday... And the timing of my flight... Leaves me only to do a private transfer to the airport.

Does anyone know if there is cabs/taxis that will be at the Southampton cruiseport that would be able to travel to Gatwick airport that would be reasonably priced??

Just to confirm other posters, unassisted disembarkation is usually around 7am. Sometimes a little earlier, but not early enough for a 6.50am bus.

Thank you I appreciate the response and confirmation.

It's Southampton. If you search anywhere for South Hampton, you will get an entirely different place.

Thanks!

LGBT friends??? Anyone out there???

Docking and disembarking are totally different things. I think it would be highly unlikely that any passengers will be allowed to disembark earlier than 7:30.

today the price was quoted at £74 for two people, that's to Gatwick or Heathrow.

Thank you!

If my ship docks at 5:30 AM in south hampton and I get early disembarkation, would it be reasonable to think that I could be at the National Coach bus station in south Hampton for 6:50 AM for the bus departure?? Thanks for all the help so far... [emoji173][emoji4]

Which cruise port?

Sorry... Southampton

Totally agree we use Smiths for all our Airport and Cruise travel, nice cars, good drivers and reasonably priced as well.

Would you know the cost from the cruise port to Gatwick?? Thank you

Will be on the same cruise as you, there is a small roll call started here, if you feel like joining in

Ok can you take this from Southampton to Gatwick? Or just departures from the airport to the cruise port?

On Celebrity (not sure about RCCL) when you sail out of Southhampton, you get a tea kettle in your cabin!!!

WHAT!!! I love this!

Unless it is an unusual situation (like first cruise after a transatlantic), about half an hour after docking.

Thank you!

If you don't do self assist then you will be given luggage tags and times to debark.

 

 

 

If you need an earlier time then take your luggage tags to Guest Services and ask them to swap them out for an earlier time...

Do your know the earliest time for disembarkation...? TIA

Does anyone know if there is set times for disembarkation for Royal? I know we had a choice.... I just can't remember! Thanks in advance :)

No lobster in Europe. They may have a few special items (e.g., kippers in the WJ for breakfast), but main menus are pretty much the same.

Thanks for the reply!

Hey everyone... I am sailing out of Southampton in October... On the Navigator. I've heard there is a slight difference between the Caribbean menu vs. Euro sailings??? Any truth to this?? Thanks in advance [emoji3]

Book your train in advance at a website such as: http://www.southernrailway.com/ and you'll be able to get the tickets for a cheap as £5 each

 

Buying them on the day will be about £30 each

 

Disadvantage if you have to pick a specific time, and if you're late you'll have to buy a new ticket. But could save money in the long run

This is most helpful! Thank you:)
