CruisingAgain Posted January 2, 2015 #1 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'd like to hear from cruisers who used the port parking and arrived early. We like to be on the ship as early as possible to start our cruise - I want my platinum status to do something for us. How early does the parking open? What is the best/earliest time to arrive for the Carnival Pride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mskaufman Posted January 2, 2015 #2 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Things change but last year we arrived about 11am and parked the car. People were still getting off from the previous cruise. We hung around in the waiting room until they let us board (around 12:30). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surrealistic Posted January 30, 2015 #3 Share Posted January 30, 2015 For our Sept. cruise we arrived at 10 am and had to wait 45-60 min to park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamscckmc Posted February 2, 2015 #4 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Last time we arrived at 11. It took about 15 mins to drop off luggage and pay to park. We were on board and eating lunch by 1230. The time before it took 45mins in line to pay to park because their CC machine was broken. Bring $115 in cash just in case. If the cruise before yours if delayed(happen once with us) the parking lot is full and they don't let you in. Usually they will email if there's a problem. Unless there is an issue like that ignore the email telling you to wait till 1pm to arrive. I'm usually done with my lunch on board by then.

wardwlw Posted August 8, 2017 #5 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Is there a way to make reservations for parking or is that necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony O Posted August 8, 2017 #6 Share Posted August 8, 2017 Is there a way to make reservations for parking or is that necessary? No reservation necessary. Plenty of parking available Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpcello Posted August 9, 2017 #7 Share Posted August 9, 2017 If you get there too early you're dealing with people disembarking and leaving the parking lot. I think when we were on Grandeur we got there late morning (probably around 11) and had absolutely no problems parking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
