Tampa Port

What time does the port "open?"  I know opening time is not necessarily boarding time, but since we have Priority (Platinum) checkin, we'd like to arrive as soon as possible in order to get on the ship as soon as possible.

Generally 10AM or slightly before is the best time to show up if you want to board right when they open up the ships.

Last time we parked there it was $15 per day and could be prepaid online.

 

For only $20 more you can get valet, which at Tampa is well worth it..IMO.

 

have a great cruise!!!

Try myparkconnect.com or Google the Parktologists.  Both good options and less expensive.  Also check with your hotel -- ours has a Park & Cruise option where you get to park your car as long as you stay at least 1 night.

Thanks f/info. Guess we'll budget the $15/nt.  Convenient to have your own car at the pier.
