montana2002 Posted July 24, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 24, 2014 When arriving at this port does one hand their baggage to be checked to one of the porters outside, or take it inside to check it themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porters will take it if you arent carrying on. Huge argument here as to tip them or not. i always tip a couple bucks per bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Porters will be outside.......you must leave any checked luggage with them......you cannot take it inside the terminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBSteelerfan Posted July 24, 2014 #4 Share Posted July 24, 2014 When we arrived on a shuttle bus, porters came and were waiting to take your bags and check them in for you. I always tip them a few bucks; don't want to miss those suitcases! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare John&LaLa Posted July 24, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 24, 2014 I drop off bags prior to boarding shuttle bus from parking lot. Don't have to deal with giving bags to porters along with rest of bus Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotty G Posted July 24, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) They expect tips and some of them will let you know it!! In our experience with many cruises from PC that has never been the case! The porters are most pleasant and helpful and are there to pick up luggage for departure and help those when disembarking with their cases.
