Port Canaveral New Royal Caribbean Terminal 1 question

[WI-Cruiser]

We'll be sailing the Enchantment in March and plan on parking at the terminal. My understanding is Royal Caribbean is now using Terminal 1. Haven't been to Port Canaveral before and this is also the first time driving/parking at a port. Didn't see any mention of Terminal 1 on the Port Canaveral website.

 

Could someone provide location and parking information? Do you typically drop off luggage, park, and then walk back to the ship?

 

Appreciate the assistance...

Terminal 1 is brand new and doesn't appear on any maps, websites, etc yet. We just boarded using that Terminal last week. It is in the same complex as the other terminals, so you can't really get lost. Just use directions to any terminal at Port Canaveral and then follow the signs for Terminal 1. It is very nice, but frankly ALL of the terminals at PC are nice and efficient.

 

And yes, you can drop off luggage and then go park. They've got a nice, new parking deck. We opted to save a few $$ and park at offsite parking through Park Port Canaveral. They were good and located less than a 5 minute drive from the port. But parking on site is definitely more convenient and I'd opt for that if I was going on a 3 or 4 day cruise.

There is a parking garage literally a few steps from terminal 1

Your edocs should have directions to the terminal.

My Edocs say follow the signs for terminal 2. I think you go further on 528 to get to terminal 1 as opposed to terminal 10 (I think that is the number of the other one that RCL used)

Are you parking at the port or park n go in a couple of weeks time? I'm thinking of trying the port in March. It's only 4 days (I know they charge for 5)

It is possible you will be in the old terminal. If I understand correctly Cruise Terminal 1 was built to handle bigger ships, and you will have a bigger Royal ship in port that day (Quantum) source: http://ports.cruisett.com/schedule/United_States_Of_America/534-Port_Canaveral_Florida/March_2015/

Pretty sure T1 preference goes to homeported ships. Makes parking work better

Definately not in same complex as other terminals. It is kind of in same area as Victory gambling ship. Do not take exit for Disney and Carnival ships if you want T1

Yes we are. One week from today :) We don't like all the changes that Park N Cruise has made.

I dislike arguing with/contradicting other people online, but I just boarded using this terminal last week. I stared right at the Disney Dream and Carnival Sunshine from our ship. Per RCI's email to us before the cruise (which corrected the terminal as it still had Terminal 2): "Please note that check in for your cruise will take place at 9050 Discovery Road Terminal 1, Port Canaveral Florida. This is a new terminal and cannot be located on a GPS or maps program at this time. However, there are signs at the pier will guide you to the correct location, terminal 1." Terminal 1 is located at the same pier at Terminal 2 and the Disney Terminal.

 

It may have a slightly different entrance, but that is why I advised our OP to follow the signs to Term 1, just as RCI did.

Terminal #1 IS NOT BY THE DISNEY TERMINAL. Terminal #1 is across from it right next to Grille's Restaurant.
