CRLess Posted March 22, 2012 Author #5 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Seems we get the same paper. I was just going to post this, but you beat me to it. :D Actually, I read it in the Palm Beach Post this morning, but the link was easier to find on the Sun Sentinel site :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pia1913 Posted March 22, 2012 #6 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Actually, I read it in the Palm Beach Post this morning, but the link was easier to find on the Sun Sentinel site :D I was wondering why someone in Jupiter would read the Sentinel. We subscribed to the Post for 30 years and then I got sick of them being a paper with no substance. So we switched to the Sentinel since we are much further south than you. Getting sick of them too. I think they are both going to go under eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terry in NJ Posted March 22, 2012 #7 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Anything about Terminal 4? Which lines have been using it and/or which ships have docked there? Is it modern and easy to navigate, both embarkation and debarkation? It sounds like the renovations are quite extensive after reading the article. I figure the Crown may be docking there in two weeks, so just getting some "intel".... Thanks so much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSC is the most frequent user of it, but Princess has used it on several occassions recently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infi Posted March 22, 2012 #9 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Thanks for sharing this. I remember a few years ago when they announced these upgrades were in the works, it's nice to see them becoming reality. And, thankfully, they'll be starting them at the same time most of the ships are leaving for Alaska/Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm boarding Ruby Sunday. Do you think the move to terminal 4 will in any way impact embarkation? Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRLess Posted March 22, 2012 Author #11 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I'm boarding Ruby Sunday. Do you think the move to terminal 4 will in any way impact embarkation? Thx It shouldn't...its the same parking garage (Northport) and essentially the same drop off area (same entry road). The only issue that I can think of is that terminal 2 has two elevated gangways (like an airport) and I am not certain if terminal 4 does or not.

Potstech Posted March 22, 2012 #12 Share Posted March 22, 2012 Would be nice if they had a convienence store like is at the San Juan piers to buy wine, soda or water and other items just before boarding. Wonder if they will do that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a reason why we docked at Pier 21 on the Grand last week:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
