marti2282 Posted August 29, 2016 #1 Share Posted August 29, 2016 We'll be on the Oosterdam's November 18th sailing and plan to park at the port. I started to make the reservation online and saw a box to enter a promo code. I poked around and can't find any reference about the code here or when I Google it. Anyone used one or know where one is available. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptDJB Posted October 26, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 26, 2016 (edited) Marti - We are aboard RCCL Brilliance Nov 10th - 14th We're FL Residents/Retired Military/Senior etc... Tampa (Main) Parking is directly across from the Terminal ... I am also looking for a code. There are numerous less $$ however not much savings with added.. 99% aren't significantly less (Hubs said stop penny pinching) so I will post if I locate a code for the immediate/across the street.. (luggage/walking and such - GREAT for some couples - our thoughts We do not want to work that hard to get onboard! LOL ) Yes only packing light - experienced Cruisers :cool: There are several nearby: Some require a Taxi to and from the Cruise Terminal $3.99 p/day +++ Taxi fees. (Found $50 *LYFT* Credit applies if NEW to LYFT https://www.lyft.com/invite/FLORIDACRUISETIP?route_key=invite&v=OUT ) 717 = http://cruise-parking.717parking.com/ 241 is $8.99 p/day = Save 10% driver only promo code: solo (only applicable for vehicles with no passengers single person shuttle ride 241 = http://241services.com/cruise-parking TheParkTologists aka The Parking Doctors do provide free shuttle ... so this means drop all luggage/fellow cruiser(s) at the Terminal then solo driver goes back to their parking lot for the 10% (NOT worth it for us as 4 night 10% = 3.60 :( ) Code: DRIVERONLY + $4.00 service fee booked online :rolleyes: see where this is going?? http://www.theparkingdoctors.com/tampa-cruise-parking-pricing.html Lastly ... at least by using the main parking =confirmed and you may very well luck out with covered parking plus 24/7 security. (A LOT of construction right now in the Channelside area) https://www.tampaport.com/Cruise/Parking IF I can locate a code for this ^^ one I'll post it :) 16 days for us !!

KamiKake Posted November 21, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Following! We are retired military and driving down for a 23 December cruise. Hubby is worried about the security of course. Would love to hear thoughts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptDJB Posted November 21, 2016 #6 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Following! We are retired military and driving down for a 23 December cruise. Hubby is worried about the security of course. Would love to hear thoughts! Hey KamiKake, We would up pre-paying at Port of Tampa. Directly across from Terminal 3 where the Brilliance docks (RCCL's site says Terminal 2 so I verified beforehand - parking was on the 2nd floor with handy elevators). Very easy, covered and secure. May have been able to save a bit using an off-site parking service but this was easiest IMHO. FWIW I used Google Earth and changed the direction we came in - so we were heading South on Channelside Dr - the entrance is North of the round-about so crossing over to the entrance would have been tedious :rolleyes: If you do use the online pre-pay for Port of Tampa keep in mind no refunds (period). FB may have a discount ?? Enjoy your Cruise Holiday !! https://tickets.completeticketsolutions.com/PARK2/Online/default.asp Edited November 21, 2016 by CaptDJB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamiKake Posted November 21, 2016 #7 Share Posted November 21, 2016 That's my thought too! I put in "Military" as a code just to see what it would do and it seemed to accept it. The overall cost was $105, so that doesn't seem like a discount, but the terminal seems like the safest option!

CaptDJB Posted November 21, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 21, 2016 (edited) Excellent ! They should have emailed a ticket to print. Entrance is right across from Cumberland Ave #7 on Google Maps. We parked right near the elevators and they stop traffic for cruisers at the cross walk by the round-about ;) ! Enjoy !!
