DTL321 Posted October 22, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Hello fellow cruisers! Just wanted to find out, when does the new Celebrity Terminal (T25) open at Port Everglades? In some articles I read it mentioned it will be opening in October. Well it is coming to the end of October and no word. Does anyone here have any ideas? I am guessing it should be open by the time the Edge starts cruises, but that is a guess and we all know how construction goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettyCruiser Posted October 22, 2018 #2 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Infinity November 15 is currently the first listing on the Port Everglades schedule. This could change because the Infinity sailing October 24 used to be listed at terminal 25 but has since been changed to other terminals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcbiker97 Posted October 22, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Which site do you use to see the schedule? On the Port Everglades official site, all I can see is the next 7 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettyCruiser Posted October 22, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 22, 2018 I have the port Everglades ap, that shows terminal assignments for the next 30 days, although as I mentioned they can change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I saw the app is only available on I phones, not androids. Is that your experience? We are hoping to be at T25 for our Reflection Cruise at the end of November, before Edge sails although she will be in port for final fitting out.

Right now it shows Reflection at T25 on November 16, but won't list it's return for a few more days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think about it, could you post again when you see that date. Greatly appreciate your help and info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawniepoo Posted October 23, 2018 #8 Share Posted October 23, 2018 The last time I checked, the Infinity is leaving from terminal 4 on our November 1 cruise and it its the only ship in port that day. I would assume that the terminal will not be ready then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeMammy Posted October 23, 2018 #12 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I did find this which all sounds great: The Terminal 25 facility will be comprised of a new and improved U.S. Customs and Border Protection area, ground transportation layout, baggage collection areas, baggage processing area, new check-in counters, new seating, easier passenger movement within the terminal, and new passenger loading bridges. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2flacruisers Posted October 23, 2018 #13 Share Posted October 23, 2018 I read somewhere on that the Infinity will be one of the first ships to use the new Terminal 18 in December...Hopefully, this is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never ceases to amaze me - why are apps developed for Iphone versus android when Android has nearly 85% of the market and IOS has 15%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she is at T25 for fitting out I guess that means Reflection will not sail from there on Nov. 26. Hope we get a look at Edge before we sail.

I would assume that the terminal will not be ready then. If that is the Terminal closest to the Convention Center, that is our favorite, esp if we are parking our car . Parking is right out front or in the adjacent garage . We cruised on Connie or Infinity from there.. Easily parked out front, just a short walk to terminal entrance, smooth flow Getting off the ship also easy..walked to the car and were on the road. The new terminal for EDGE looks beautiful but due to its location, it means parking in the mid port garage. In January, we are going to try to take our luggage on the shuttle rather than drop it off first....to avoid 2 trips around! That is awful! In Nov 2019 we will be flying to FLL, much easier..just take a cab to the ship from our hotel Can't wait to hear all about the new Terminal!

The Port info shows Edge going out on several 3 night Bahamas trips before going out on a 7 night Western Caribbean on Dec 9th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BettyCruiser Posted November 1, 2018 #22 Share Posted November 1, 2018 The schedule shows Reflection at T25 on November 26. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHEZMARYLOU Posted November 1, 2018 #23 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Thanks BettyCruiser. I was told by the shore side concierge that we would be at T18, subject to change. T25 would be great, although T18 is good too. Wish the port had the app for android phones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkacruiser Posted November 1, 2018 #24 Share Posted November 1, 2018 The rebuild of Terminal 25 was well overdo. When I used this facility sailing on Celebrity Eclipse, the embarkation experience was fine. Disembarkation was the worst I have ever experienced in any port and it was due to the inadequate Terminal. Baggage had to be picked up at Terminals 22/24 which was a walk from 25. Even then, once in Terminals 22/24, there was a long snaking line to get to baggage claim followed by more congestion and lines for Customs/Immigration. I was so upset that I wrote Mr. Michael Bayley, then CEO of Celebrity Cruises. I received a personal letter from him that said that he had visited the Terminal and witnessed the "mess". He agreed that changes needed to be made. So, this rebuild has been a long time coming. I am sure that the Celebrity guests using the "new" Terminal 25 will have a much more pleasant experience that I had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare DENIE Posted November 2, 2018 #25 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Hoping for terminal 25. Saw a note in my Roll Call for 11/30 that Silhouette is shown for Terminal 25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
