So interestingly, we had booked the cruise bus transfers to the airport thinking cabs and Ubers might be a problem. It was $24 each. When we got our luggage we were directed to a line with the line end inside the terminal between all the suitcases. Well that was the end of the line that stretched across the street and down the sidewalk on the other side. There was also a long line of crew with their luggage waiting on their airport transfer. When we got to the front of the line we realized why it was taken so long. Firstly, people got
off as soon as they cleared customs instead of waiting on their color to be called. Then there was so much luggage because of the long cruise. So the cargo bay of the bus would fill and less than half of the inside was full. Then a lot
of older people with serious mobility issues and by this point very bad attitudes were put off on the sidewalk across from the airport entry (it is the way the airport is made) without any help to move all their luggage. We attempted to help but there was so much luggage! Then the bus would go back for another load. So the people in line at the terminal couldn’t get out of the way of the next wave of people coming down.
We had planned for a crazy day and had a late flight, so we just tried to be patient and while we were out there the weather was beautiful. The cruise was fabulous, I just don’t think they thought about the amount of luggage people bring on a 35 day cruise.
