UandMe4Ever Posted March 31, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hi cruises, Does anyone know for a fact if NCL does or does not have the BAGS program in place from LAX TO NEWARK on United Airlines?:confused: I called NCL and have gotten two conflicting answers. One said they do and another rep. said they do not. We are leaving 4/21 from NYC and coming back into Newark, NJ on 5/8 via United. We have taken the NCL transfers because there is a lot of traffic on a work day and was told it would be a lot chaper than a taxi (which we normally do if necessary). Any accurate information or direction is very much appreciated in advance. Thank you kindly.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NMLady Posted March 31, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 31, 2013 We are flying out of LAX and were told that the BAGS program is not available at all at that airport. A big disappointment since we've used it before at other airport and really liked the service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not right;) We got spoiled as well, not having to drag luggage, except a rolling pilot case and carry on! Appreciate your response...Thanks and safe travels....

pyrrhus Posted March 31, 2013 #4 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Is there a list of airports somewhere? I found the NCL page, but it just says to ask on the ship. I would love this for LGA to DFW. I would be very happy to not have to worry about my bags until I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngestof9 Posted April 1, 2013 #5 Share Posted April 1, 2013 it's not the airport - it's the port and airline. And the NY port does not support the BAGS program. Airlines are listed here: http://www.ncl.com/freestyle-cruise/bags But it depends on if the port supports it (like Miami does, we just used it). But NY does not.

Isn't Newark Liberty Airport a New Jersey airport, not New York? We used them last year from FL into Newark, via JetBlue - on Princess. Before that, it was from Miami to Newark on NCL... I read the airline you provided. United is among them, which is what we are flying back from LAX on. Thanks anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, JFK, LGA and EWR (as well as Teterboro and Stewart airports) are all owned and operated by the Port Authority of NY and NJ, an independent bi-state government agency under the joint control of the governors of New York and New Jersey.

Thanks anyway. regardless, it's the PORT you leave from that determines if it's used. So the NY Port (regardless of what airline you use) is the first determining factor before airlines. And the NY port does not offer BAGS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we understand...It still stinks:rolleyes: We're leaving "from" LAX flying into Newark, NJ.... Oh well, I guess I'll take 1 pair of shoes less:eek: Thanks all for the info:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keystoneboarder Posted April 1, 2013 #10 Share Posted April 1, 2013 BAGS only available in Seattle and Miami. Used to be available from Tampa and LA, but now, only Seattle and Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
