    Yup. the official Boston Cruise Ship terminal is called the Flynn Black Falcon Cruiseport Terminal, 1 Black Falcon Ave, Boston, MA, just off the I90 and across the channel from Logan airport.  Our last Princess trip used it, as will our next Princess trip this July.

    Parking at the Black Falcon Cruise Terminal is a popular subject over on the Easy Coast Departures board. The closest parking lots to the Terminal all run $30/day, which is decent when compared to Manhattan and Brooklyn's $45/day. Given the length of your stay, maybe look into a Logan Park 'n Fly package to save a few $$$s per day? Don't know if that will help or not though.

     

    For our 7 day in mid-July, we are simply showing up and trying each of the three closest lots and will park at the first one with availability.

    We have been to these areas before years ago, but our travelling partners haven't and we want to enjoy the day with them.  We don't want to walk up to Shirley's Heights 😊. We don't think we want to go to a beach afterwards, just the attractions.  As I recall, the taxi drivers are regulated, right?  We won't get ripped off if just hiring a taxi at the pier, right? What would the cost for 4 ppl be each way/round trip? Also, thinking of Lawrence of Antigua $ price? or Scenic Tours Antigua for $38. Hoping for comparisons of your experiences of each method.  Which have you done?  We arive 7am and all aboard 4:30pm.  I would want to be on board by "3:30" for peace of mind. 😎 Thanks.

    Do Lawrence..he has free WiFi on the bus and supply com. drinks too

    We are looking for a Land based excursion in Antigua, with no beach involved. Should I go with The RCI excursions or with a different company? Arriving on the Freedom of seas in March. Thanks..

    Do Lawrence you will not be disappointed..tell him Grumpy sent you..he has free WiFi on the bus too..

  7. I have a friend who loves to cruise. But now he is on Dialysis. Would like to know if any of the RCCL ships have Dialysis treatment facility's on board so he can go back to the travel he loves. Also would like to know the cost he is only on Medicare.

  8. All of the PC/Cocoa Beach car rental agencies will shuttle you to/from the port. A rental car will be a MUCH cheaper and faster way than using the bus option. We did Universal on a PC stop a few years ago. Drive from PC to Disney will take just over an hour each way.

     

    Do you recommend which car rental to use? I do use Alamo a lot..:cool:

  9. you might want to do some checking before going the bus route. Used to be the bus from ttc to dtd was one way only. There were no buses from dtd, now the springs, to the ttc, or any park for that matter. If that is still the case how would you get back to the rccl bus to return to the ship? You would either need to take a taxi to the ttc or bus to a resort then a bus from the resort to the ttc. Time consuming at best.

     

    The issue was people parking at dtd to avoid paying the parking fees and grabbing a bus to get to the parks, so disney stopped the buses to the ttc from dtd.

     

    Just sayin'

     

     

    ttc=?

    Dtd=?

  10. It is an easy trip out to Disney Springs and back! We often go there for dinner and a movie!

     

    I agree with the advice to avoid I-4, etc. here is a route map - https://i2.wp.com/cruiseportcanaveral.us/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/RouteFromPC.jpg

    All your favorite car rentals are within 4 miles of the port. You can also Uber . Here is a description of Disney springs for cruisers -

    Do the rental car companies have a bus at the port to get to their car rental areas or would I need a taxi to get there?
