Duffysmom Posted May 15, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 15, 2019 We’re on the Caribbean Princess mid June and will be driving to the port. Since we never parked at the port I would appreciate knowing what terminal the CP uses and where the handicap parking can be found. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enter off of Eisenhower Blvd. There is a covered parking garage directly next to the pier. HCp parking probably on the ground floor level, but I have no 1st hand use of that area. There are elevators from upper parking decks, and I believe I remember each deck having some HCP parking near the elevators. The walk is very short from the parking garage to the pier entrance. If a passenger can not walk at all then there is a drop off point next to the ramp entrance to the pier. I would avoid this if possible as it is very crowded with cars, taxis, buses and people in this area. Here is the number for the parking information: 954-468-3680. You can last minute verify the pier assignment by checking this Port Everglades site: https://pevvesseltraffic.broward.org/webx/ I understand if you are from Florida, and have a HCP Florida license plate, I don't think mirror tags qualify, you can park there for free. If you think you qualify check out the law. Edited May 15, 2019 by skynight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duffysmom Posted May 17, 2019 Author #5 Share Posted May 17, 2019 Skylight and Mauilvrs, thank you both for the great information. I never expected the instructions as to how to drive into the port which can be a headache, now DH and I feel so much better about the trip and what to expect. Another reason to love CC and the generosity of the members. 👌 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
