meandralph Posted December 30, 2017 #1 Share Posted December 30, 2017 We are lucky enough to get to take three totally different cruises in 2018. Though we have been on all three ships before, they now have different ports and itineraries. First, Freedom in January. Do they offer walk disembarkation off on this ship? Jewel out of San Juan, how much is cab service to and from the airport to port? Or are the transfers from RCCL a better price? Liberty out of Galveston, same question about cab, transfer etc. We are thinking of driving to Galveston, what are parking options ? Thanks for any input.

Clarea Posted December 30, 2017 #5 Share Posted December 30, 2017 For Galveston info, it's best to post in the Gulf Coast Departures forum: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=414 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruiseguy1016 Posted December 30, 2017 #6 Share Posted December 30, 2017 When are you cruising on Jewel? RCI has been offering a free shuttle between the airport and the cruise terminal due to the hurricane damage. I THINK they are still offering it but not sure how much longer. Personally, free or not, I would stay away from the shuttle. When you take the shuttle you have to wait for it to fill up and then you have to wait with the heard when you all arrive at the cruise terminal at the same time. A taxi will be much quicker and you won't have to deal with the heard. As someone else mentioned, the taxi is only $20 plus $1 per bag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are sailing out of Galveston in September. I just made parking reservations at Park n Cruise. It is supposed to be just one block from the terminal and is gated parking. They also offer inside parking. The outside parking was $65 a week if you make your reservation and prepay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBSteelerfan Posted December 31, 2017 #8 Share Posted December 31, 2017 Lots of close parking options in Galveston. Most recently we used Ez Cruise parking, and would definitely use them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
