My good friend U. Ber will get you from the airport to the Island. Then he will get you to the pier on the day of your cruise. The airport to island trip won’t be cheap, but it will be efficient.
Then you can book a shuttle back to the airport after you board the ship of dreams. Or Mr U. Ber can whisk you away the morning you arrive back in port.
Galveston cruises… there will be a limited drink menu for the first few hours of your cruise.(Royal wants to limit paying too much in tax to Texas)
also, depending on your sail date, there can be fog issues leaving and returning. So plan your flight leaving with a good buffer of time.
