robin13 Posted January 22, 2019 #1 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Does anyone know that if you use the NCL transfer service from the airport to the pier will they take your luggage off the bus and give to the porter? Or do you have to collect your luggage and then hand to the porter? I can't remember what cruise line (I think it was Carnival) I used but once I handed my luggage to the shuttle driver I didn't see it again until it was delivered to my room. I'm trying to decide if I want to use NCL or an independent company to get from Orlando to Port Canaveral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAHAM Posted January 23, 2019 #2 Share Posted January 23, 2019 I can't speak for every port, of course, but for the several ports I have used the NCL transfer, once it's loaded in the bus, you are done with the luggage until it arrives at your cabin.

Rare BirdTravels Posted January 23, 2019 #3 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Yup. Agreed. You keep your luggage with you until you board the bus. Once you hand it to the bus driver, the next time you'll see it is on the ship. It's fast and efficient. The NCL agents will pick you up from your baggage claim area and escort you to the bus waiting area. Then you are [usually] on a comfortable motor coach (vs having to crawl into a shuttle van and being crammed in like sardines. Well worth the cost of the transfer.

emknott0711 Posted January 23, 2019 #4 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Will the NCL transfer agents attach your NCL luggage tags for you? Or do you do that before boarding the bus? Do people travel with a stapler just for attaching their tags?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLAHAM Posted January 23, 2019 #6 Share Posted January 23, 2019 1. Any NCL cruise passenger can purchase available NCL airport-to-port transfers. Do so by phone to NCL before the cruise (you can also purchase return transfers onboard at Guest Services). 2. I travel with a small roll of cellophane tape and attached the luggage tags with a wrap or two of tape just before handing over my luggage.
