weneedavacation2 Posted May 21, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2015 We are doing a cruistour ending in vancouver, so we are planning on spending the day touring the city before our evening flight home, what do we do with our luggage? is there a way to get it to the airport? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted May 21, 2015 #2 Share Posted May 21, 2015 How are you touring? If you have a rental car, put your things in the trunk. If you're on a tour bus, your luggage goes with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weneedavacation2 Posted May 21, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted May 21, 2015 coming off a cruise, no rental car, not sure exactly what we are doing yet, possibly using public trans to tour on our own, walking around, etc. but would rather not lug around large suitcases.

sail7seas Posted May 21, 2015 #4 Share Posted May 21, 2015 You have few choices but certainly lots of cruisers face the same circumstance. You could book a 'day room' at a hotel which would provide you a place to leave the luggage and where you could clean up before going to the airport. You didn't say your flight time so don't know exactly how late a flight you have as pertains to checking out of the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jujuyu211 Posted May 21, 2015 #6 Share Posted May 21, 2015 u can go to any large hotel chain and ask if you can store your luggage with their bellman for couple of hours. they might charge a small fee, since this service is usually for their own guests, but it's definitely cheaper than booking a room.

sail7seas Posted May 21, 2015 #7 Share Posted May 21, 2015 10 pm flight That's a lot more than a 'day room'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markanddonna Posted May 22, 2015 #8 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Some port terminals have a service that allows you to check bags for a day. We did that in Seattle for $3 a bag but the luggage needed to be picked up by 3:30. That might work for an early evening flight, but not a 10PM.

pezhead Posted May 23, 2015 #9 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Did it last summer, we booked the Big Pink bus as a Holland excursion with luggage transfer. Dropped the bags off with them at Canada Place then picked them up at airport before the flight. I splurged on a few hours at Plaza Premium before the red eye flight home. It was more than worth it, simply for dinner and the chance to clean up. Sent from my KFTHWI using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare wishIweretravelling Posted May 23, 2015 #10 Share Posted May 23, 2015 There is a hotel right at the cruise terminal in Vancouver--I think it's the Pan Pacific. Give them a call and see if their bell desk will hold your luggage for you even if you aren't a guest. If not, they may be able to suggest an alternative.

SuiteTraveler Posted May 23, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 23, 2015 Some ports offer the ability to check your luggage as you get off the ship with a company that will transfer it to the airport and meet you there with your luggage. Some ports offer luggage storage. Large hotels can store luggage as well - for example, you might go to the spa in the Pan Pacific hotel in Vancouver or have lunch there (I highly recommend their smoked salmon pizza!)
