Where do I find a "porter"?

When the supershuttle drops us off at the Pier..

 

( This is a dumb question and I hope my AZ cruiser 4Hunters doesn't see me obsessing... ) :rolleyes:

 

Will it be obvious where to take our luggage?

No problem finding them. Actually if you have luggage they will quickly find you.

Thank you Stu !

To me, there is no such thing as I dumb question when it is genuine. Trolls need not apply, however.

 

When the blue van drops you off, porters will be everywhere, usually wearing those neon safety vests with a number on the back. You will have no trouble finding them, as soon as the van drivers pulls out your luggage they will be there. Tip is typically atleast a dollar a bag, I have had some very friendly porters that actually got the luggage out of my car for me and were very welcoming, I have given them more.

Long Beach right? Right where the vans drop you off they will be waiting right there for you with their luggage carts. They took our luggage right out of the shuttle for us last time. Super easy!

They will know where you are. I think they have teams follow us from our homes to the port to keep tabs on us. :)

Thank you Stu !

And don't forget to have a tip in hand for them ($1-2 per bag).

they are easy to find...they will find you first...that $1 per bag the hope to get in tip keeps them searching for their next group. they will probably beat you to the back of the shuttle.

 

no problems. have fun.

Like ants to a picnic, they will descend upon you before you get your car door closed

Watch your step as you exit the shuttle -- you will most likely step on a few of them.

They always take our bags right as we get out of the shuttle, they ask if you have anything in your checked bags that you need for boarding ( cruise docs. passports, any meds you may need should go in carry on ) Make sure you have some small bills to tip them with. We will see you on the ship soon...

The good ones earn their pay thats for sure. But they are union members so the bad ones are protected.
