Yosef42 Posted July 9, 2017 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Just stumbled across this in the Princess website: "Due to heightened security measures, taxis and private vehicles are not permitted to enter Pier 27 Cruise Terminal, nor will they be permitted to wait by the curb unless they are actively in the process of loading or unloading passengers." Are they saying that all the pickups and drop-offs are done at the curb? On the Embarcadero? That sounds crazy to me, and I thought I read someone recently describing turning off the road into the little area between there and the port building. Anyone been there recently who can reassure me we won't be unloading luggage in the middle of city traffic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, at that time, there was a pull off area immediately in front of the terminal that cars and other carriers were able to drop off and collect people. Like you, I can not imagine that the security folks would attempt to have people make their connection on the street. It would be bedlam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colo Cruiser Posted July 9, 2017 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2017 It seems to work fine where it is now. It's not on the main street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yosef42 Posted July 9, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted July 9, 2017 Strange info.. How about posting the link.. http://www.princess.com/downloads/pdf/embarkation_port_guides/San-Francisco-Info.pdf The download is dated 6/30/17, but that doesn't mean it's accurate or up to date. And I just noticed that the driving directions on the same download say to "turn right into Pier 27." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
