alibabaxx Posted April 12, 2015 #1 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Hi, wondering if anyone has any ideas what to do to kill a few hours following disembarkation of ship in Miami (early morning) up until early evening when checking in for flight home? First time doing this so would appreciate any advice what to do with luggage and two young children....? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted April 12, 2015 #2 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Ride Sun Trolley (Free) Take a car service up to Fort Lauderdale and use the water taxi for the day (sightseeing with multiple hop on hop off stops). WaterTaxi.com Find a place to store luggage and head over to Lincoln Road in Miami for shopping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted April 12, 2015 #3 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Look in your cruise planner for post cruise excursions. They take care of your luggage on the excursion. Another option for luggage might be to use luggage valet: http://www.royalcaribbean.com/contentWithHero.do?pagename=luggage_valet_service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molly361 Posted April 12, 2015 #4 Share Posted April 12, 2015 See if you can rent a room for day use on the beach Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycarla Posted April 12, 2015 #5 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Rent a car - that way you have a place to store luggage. And, you have transport to the airport. And, you have transport to go wherever you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathyF. Posted April 12, 2015 #6 Share Posted April 12, 2015 We took out kids to the Miami Children's Museum the day we disembarked. They loved that musuem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCruisers Posted April 12, 2015 #7 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Check to see what shore excursions the ship is offering for those disembarking in Miami with later flights. :) LuLu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted April 12, 2015 #8 Share Posted April 12, 2015 First..how late is your flight? If it's after 5pm, I'd compare prices for: Day room (where you have a place "to be", with pool, food, tv, bathroom/shower, etc...) to an excursion (which will drop you at the airport around 1pm), to a rental car (where you'll have your luggage, but be driving around sort of aimlessly) to paying a fee for an earlier flight! You will be off the ship before 10am, because they really want you gone. Killing time is no fun! Personally, if I couldn't change my flights, I'd opt for the day room!

alibabaxx Posted April 12, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted April 12, 2015 Thanks for all the replies some good suggestions there.....:D Hiring a car may be a good option for storage/travel...wondering how easy it is to get around in Miami though on a Friday.... may be quite busy? Could maybe go to a shopping mall for the day...?. Like the idea of renting a room at the beach too. Our flight is at 1835 hours.... (is check in around 4 hours before?) So I guess we would have from around 9am - 1430 ish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
