addicted cruiser Posted January 22, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi I have a few questions. Going on Cuban Fusion April 3rd. Flying from Toronto Canada to Montego Bay. Once we land in Montego Bay Do we get our luggage and then need to go thru security. Then do we proceed to the coaches. At the ship do we get tags for our luggage with our cabin # on them if we alr day don’t have them from our TA. After cruise do we pick up our luggage in cruise warehouse go thru security and then take it to coaches and then go thru security again at Montego Bay airport and then onto our airlines. TA has not booked anyone on this cruise before and does not know the process so I am asking here for any information. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are literally in the same boat as you regarding having no idea either and unable to access any information. We fly from Scotland to Jamaica Montego Bay. I would be most grateful if anyone could provide me with the same information as yourself. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travellingtaff Posted January 22, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 22, 2018 (edited) We were on the Cuban Fusion & Mayan Treasures cruises last year. If you're on a Marella/Tui/Thomson package from the UK you check in your bags at the airport and wont see them again until they arrive outside you cabin door. On arrival you miss immigration control and go straight to the ship by coach. On return you leave your cases outside your cabin the night before your departure flight and you pick them up from the conveyor at your home airport. Luggage labels with cabin numbers are distributed at the home airport. With regard to Canadian travellers, guess you must have a Sunwing packake eg https://www.sunwing.ca/en/cruise-travel/ship-detail/tui-discovery2. Not sure if they have the same procedure as UK packages but it's not really acceptable for your TA to say they don't know the procedure, couldn't they just phone Sunwing and ask?

CAW1958 Posted January 22, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Hi everyone, we are on a Marella cruise next month. You should get your tags at the departure airport for your cases, and you will not see your cases again, until you arrive at the Ship. Have a great time.

I was on this cruise last year from Gatwick. We did have to stop at immigration - just to hand in the form you fill out on the plane (sorry can't remember what form it was), but no need to collect any luggage. We also had a police escort from the Airport to the Ship........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP is flying from Canada and asking about the procedure for them. Sent from my Hudl 2 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
