FLSteve11 Posted July 27, 2017 #403 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Even with the tunnel, the Port of Miami is not what most cruisers are accustomed too. Just different for many reasons. I was born in Miami and grew up for a bit in Coral Gables. Sent from my iPhone using Forums I actually find that horrible basically 1-lane road ending at a street light going into the Port of Canaveral worse now. Last time I used that (in March, on the NCL Epic) it was a 30 minute bumper-to-bumper slog to get in the port. With the tunnel you get put right into the port, drop your bags and go park in the garage. It's just a busier port, and you have to deal with local crazy drivers :) I don't sail out of PC that often (living in South Florida, I have the 2 big ports to sail out of already), so only go through there every couple of years. I assume it's not generally that bad, and seemed easier if going to the far end of the road rather then turning into the light at the first set of piers (maybe RCL docks there).

Rare island lady Posted July 27, 2017 #413 Share Posted July 27, 2017 And we are just the opposite. We would rather drive the extra hour to Ft Lauderdale (not Miami and only if we have to ) than take the shorter drive to Tampa and have to go on I-4. I'll take I 95 over I 4 anytime From where I am, I am not really on I-4 that much. 528 to 417, then we are on I-4 only half the way (about an hour of it). It's all bad...but worth it once we drop off our bags to the porters! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted July 27, 2017 #417 Share Posted July 27, 2017 Fantastic news although a little confused because in England anyone who is knighted it is done by HM the Queen and they take the title of Sir. Sent from my Kestrel using Forums mobile app This one will be done by Sir Shane...not sure if Sir John will be on board. ;) Sorry, I am just being goofy.....I keep teasing John that he will be crowned/knighted at his Pinnacle coronation. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have lived near the Port Canaveral area more than 20 years, and have never seen it backed up like that. PC is the easiest port we have ever cruised out of. Cape Liberty is the real nightmare. :o Probably. The traffic going to the end of the port was fine. It was turning into the area of the first 3 piers (NCL, Disney) that was awful. You turn into that port and there is a traffic light, with 1 lane for the road, and 3 ships worth of traffic coming into it. Oh yes, I've done that port twice. Only reason it was ok for us is we were coming from my parents house on Staten Island and coming in from the other direction (over the Bayonne bridge). Since no one comes from that direction, and you are making a right at the light heading to the terminal road instead of a left, it's a lot easier. Actually, try sailing out of Manhattan with any decent sized ship. It's a madhouse. The terminal is built for ships much smaller ages ago (though nice going by the Statue of Liberty). The good part is, you're in manhattan so great for pre-post time there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
