regnig Posted September 1, 2005 #1 Share Posted September 1, 2005 Ok, now I'm really confused. :confused: I just looked at http://www.gotopuertorico.com/Calendar/calendar.asp?id=89710&date=3-4-2006 the web site that has a calendar of cruise ships and their assigned piers. It shows Port # 4-E for the Golden. I thought she left from the Panamerican pier. Does anyone know for certain? If she is going to leave from the Old San Juan docks we may reconsider the hotel we will use for our pre-cruise overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaye from Chicagoland Posted September 16, 2005 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2005 Bump - I would like to know the answer to this question, too. Is #4-E the Pan American Pier or is it Pier 4 in OSJ? Any help appreciated, Thanks, Kaye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSN-Travelers Posted September 19, 2005 #4 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Ok, now I'm really confused. :confused: I just looked at http://www.gotopuertorico.com/Calendar/calendar.asp?id=89710&date=3-4-2006 the web site that has a calendar of cruise ships and their assigned piers.

If she is going to leave from the Old San Juan docks we may reconsider the hotel we will use for our pre-cruise overnight. Golden has docked at the PanAm pier in the past. Something may have changed. The link above is the only site I could find that lists cruise ship arrival/departure info with dock assignment and may be suspect as they change the passenger count for Golden from one month to the next. I would call Princess and ask them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrambach Posted September 19, 2005 #5 Share Posted September 19, 2005 I called princess on Friday after looking at the link for the port schedule in San Juan, the rep said that the golden would be docking at the Pan American Pier. I'm not sure if he just looked at where she is usually docked and just said that or if he was sure. I guess we'll just have to wait until the golden gets back down to San Juan to see if she's in OSJ or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaye from Chicagoland Posted September 20, 2005 #6 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I called Princess yesterday (Mon.) and they also so said that the Golden is using the Pan American Pier. Then I got an e-mail from Laura at Audio Guia in Old San Juan where we are considering storing our luggage w/ transportation back to the airport since we have a 6:00 p.m. flight out on disembarkation day. She said the Golden will be at Pier 4. ?!?!?!?! Guess we just got to wait and see ?!?!?!?! Kaye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubber Posted October 6, 2005 #7 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Looks like there are three big ships departing on the same day next year. The Golden, Constellation, and Serenade of the Seas. The Pan Am Pier holds two ships and the Constellation and Serenade are listed there. The Golden is listed at Pier 4-E. That is at the Old San Juan Docks. I have been on two Princess cruises out of San Juan before on the Dawn and we were docked at the Navy Frontier Pier for both of those excursions. If the Golden is docked in OSJ, that would be a major plus since we are staying at the Sheraton. We may get a hint at the end of the month when the Golden returns to San Juan.

Kaye from Chicagoland Posted October 6, 2005 #8 Share Posted October 6, 2005 Hey Clubber - Where did you get the information about how many ships are departing from San Juan on a particular date? We are also staying in OSJ (Hotel Milano - Sheraton was booked when we tried) and would like the convenience of the location - no problem with Pan American - did that last year. The cruise calendar still shows us leaving on the Golden on Jan. 14 from Pier 4 - E. Curious minds - just want to know, Kaye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubber Posted October 6, 2005 #9 Share Posted October 6, 2005 It's listed in the cruise calendar in the link above. Just make the thing scroll and you'll see the other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaye from Chicagoland Posted October 6, 2005 #10 Share Posted October 6, 2005 DUH!!!!! Thanks! I guess it didn't take a wizard to figure that one out. Yes, it shows the same two ships at Pan Am pier for our sailing date as yours (When is yours?) and the Golden at #4 - E. It would be nice! Appreciated, Kaye p.s. Nice aerial view and information you've added to your signature. I think a lot of people appreciate that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichardK Posted October 6, 2005 #11 Share Posted October 6, 2005 This past season, the Constellation and the Serenade both shared the Pan Am Pier on Saturdays. The Golden Princess, and the Adventure of the Seas both shared it on Sundays. What's changing for this upcoming season to make things/docking different??

Kaye from Chicagoland Posted October 7, 2005 #12 Share Posted October 7, 2005 RichardK, Hi! I guess the difference is, and thus the confusion, is that this year the Golden is sailing on Saturday. We sailed out of San Juan last year on Sun. and it was the Pan Am pier with AOS behind us. Kaye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubber Posted October 8, 2005 #14 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Yes, the Golden has switched to Saturday departures. We are departing on Jan 28th in 111 days. Not that I'm counting.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilrod Posted October 9, 2005 #15 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Hi: Well the Golden will be coming to San Juan on Saturdays and will be on pier 4 in Old San Juan in front of the Sheraton Hotel (old Wyndham). The Constellation and the Serenade will be on Saturdays but at the Panamerican Pier in San Juan but if you want to go to Old San Juan, you have to take a taxi. I work with a company that gives services to passengers of the Golden and we start on October 29 at the Pier 4. Lilrod Puerto Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaye from Chicagoland Posted October 9, 2005 #16 Share Posted October 9, 2005 lilrod - Thanks for clarifying this for us. It's nice to have someone local to keep us informed. I think you know more than the Princess reps do! Looking forward to visiting your lovely city once again this year, Kaye Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicknack Posted October 9, 2005 #17 Share Posted October 9, 2005 That's great news because I will be staying at the Sheraton on Oct 28-29. What has me quite upset, however, is the inability of Princess customer service to give accurate information. As of right now, and I just called them again, Princess is still telling people who call it's the Pan American docks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheal Posted October 10, 2005 #18 Share Posted October 10, 2005 I called Princess before I read this post. My cruise leaves on Sat, 2/4/06. The rep I spoke with told me that as of 10/29 the Golden would be at pier 4 East. This agrees wilth Lilrod's information. Works for me since I won my priceline bid for the Marriot Resort on Ashford Avenue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandikai Posted October 17, 2005 #19 Share Posted October 17, 2005 We will be sailing on the Golden January 28. Does anyone know if we can leave the ship after we check in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubber Posted October 18, 2005 #20 Share Posted October 18, 2005 We will be sailing on the Golden January 28. Does anyone know if we can leave the ship after we check in? Yes you can get off the ship. Usually, I check in and then get off and hit the duty free liquor store. I'll see you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbrambach Posted October 21, 2005 #21 Share Posted October 21, 2005 This is great!!!! Nice to just walk off the ship to OSJ. Two years ago we were docked at the Pan American Pier....Not very close to anything, half way between OSJ and the Condado area. Does anyone know if the Sheraton will hold your luggage for the day and if you can use the hotel for the day? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZPam Posted October 26, 2005 #22 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Hi: Well the Golden will be coming to San Juan on Saturdays and will be on pier 4 in Old San Juan in front of the Sheraton Hotel (old Wyndham). The Constellation and the Serenade will be on Saturdays but at the Panamerican Pier in San Juan but if you want to go to Old San Juan, you have to take a taxi.

I have a large group that will be in San Juan, arriving March 9 for our March 11 Golden cruise. We would like to do some sort of tour on the 10th and would also like to arrange transportation from the airport. Please feel free to email me direct at pam.freeman.olmstead@juno.com if you have any suggestions. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicycledude Posted December 14, 2005 #23 Share Posted December 14, 2005 The cruise calendar for 12/24/05 shows the Golden Princess leaving from the Navy Frontier pier. Where is this located ? Is it in Old San Juan or somewhere else ? I should have done a more thorough search before asking. Answer is here: http://www.langland.org/cruises/sanjuan.asp Thank You, Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
POOHISME2 Posted January 5, 2006 #24 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Is the Golden still leaving from #4 or is it back at the Pan American pier? I called Princess and was told Pan American for our 4/29/06? But from what I'm reading its in OSJ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubber Posted January 6, 2006 #25 Share Posted January 6, 2006 It's still listed at Pier 4 on the cruise calendar. I wouldn't worry too much about it. The taxi driver will know which pier to take you to anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
