jrmende63 Posted February 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 5, 2023 I have just booked Brilliant Lady for April of 2024. I am trying to find out which pier Virgin uses. Pan American or Old San Juan? I want to know where to look for a hotel when the time comes. Thanks! Julie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ships departing go from the Pan American pier as far as I know. Old san Juann is for transit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they using Pier 4 (the yellow cruise terminal)? I'll sailed out of there twice with Carnival, very fast and easy boarding from there. I know that VV uses Pier 3 for port stops. Glad to see that they are using Carnival's terminal for home porting. So much better than the Pan American terminal! I'm on the TA leaving from San Juan in April 2024, can't wait! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are on the December 30, 2023 sailing of the Brilliant Lady and I just spoke to our MRS coordinator yesterday. He said the ship will be docked at Pier 4 at the port in Old San Juan. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare trippingpara Posted March 24, 2023 #11 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Sheraton Old San Juan and Casablanca are my two favorite hotels in Old San Juan. There are other really good options as well. I really like those two because you can just walk over to the cruise pier from there on embarkation day. Sheraton is the closest (right across the street) but sells out super quick because of that. There is also a CVS right next door to the Sheraton for those "Oops, I forgot to pack items" before you board. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycarla Posted March 24, 2023 #12 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I have NO IDEA... but whatever they use today could easily be different a year from now, and the fact they are originating cruises there vs stops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeacDawg Posted March 24, 2023 #13 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Our TA for the 1/6/24 sailing also said Pier 4 for the cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for confirming this! We've already booked the Sheraton OSJ for a couple nights before our Brilliant sailing next Feb, but were thinking of changing it if Brilliant was going to use the Pan American terminal as a home port. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. He confirmed that. We are still planning to stay out at the Caribe Hilton. The beach is calling to us! Luckily it is only about a 10 minute drive to the ship. Can't wait to cruise on a brand new ship! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
