GoofingOff Posted March 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted March 22, 2011 We'll be debarking at Civitavecchia, Italy. Celebrity Equinox. Itinerary says ship arrives in port at 4:30 AM. Can anyone tell me when passengers actually get off? Still the typical 8 or 9 AM? Is express/self disembarkation an option, if necessary? We get off August 8th, Monday, if that matters. Thank you!

euro cruiser Posted March 22, 2011 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2011 While you're waiting for someone with experience ending a cruise at Civitavecchia, I can tell you that if your flight is direct from FCO to a North American destination on a US based carrier, you'll be leaving from Terminal 5 at FCO, which adds some complications. For a 12 noon flight, you should plan on being at T5 at 9 AM, or 9:30 at the absolute latest. Allowing for morning traffic, you should assume one hour to make the drive from the port, which means you must leave the port (not just the ship) between 8 - 8:30 AM.

CruiserBruce Posted March 22, 2011 #3 Share Posted March 22, 2011 You should be fine, particularly if you follow euro cruiser's guidelines. You shouldn't need express debarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Azulann Posted March 23, 2011 #4 Share Posted March 23, 2011 We also will be flying out of FCO on a noon flight on Delta to JKF. Our Equinox cruise will be docking at 4:00am. We want to be picked up at 7:30am for drive to airport. We want plenty of time, and not rushed. I love exploring airports and their shops. So far Dublin's airport is my all time favorite.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantocruisemore Posted March 23, 2011 #5 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Our flight is also right at noon out of FCO. We've arranged for an 8am pick-up with Rome in Limo and will do self-debarkation. The 8am time for pick-up was suggested by Jany for plenty of time. Our other main flight choice was at 11:05am but we were afraid we would be rushed so went closer to noon instead.

GoofingOff Posted March 24, 2011 Author #6 Share Posted March 24, 2011 Glad to hear it. I'm comfortable with a noon-ish flight or even earlier now. Thanks! Touring airports being fun? Yeah, I can see that being the case when you're leaving a place your really enjoyed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
