TOMTOMRN331 Posted November 11, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Hello All - We are sailing on the Imagination on 12/1/2019. How is parking at the Long Beach Terminal? Pron/Con? Other locations for long term parking? Our hotel does not offer parking outside of staying at the property. Thank you advance for responses.

Rosefloater Posted November 11, 2019 #2 Share Posted November 11, 2019 No problem parking for the short cruises. We usually head straight for level 3 of the structure. I've never been lucky enough for finding a spot on 2. In case you don't know, parking is $20/day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are checking parking/checking in till 1130 that day. Do you see any issue with the garage filling up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted November 11, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 11, 2019 You should be able to find parking but no one can guarantee that. Why stay at a hotel that doesn't offer parking for you for the duration of the cruise??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why stay at a hotel that doesn't offer parking for you for the duration of the cruise??? We are staying at the Westin, using points. There is a garage attached to the hotel which offers 24 hour parking. I have not parked in LB in a LONG time, are you allowed to do overnight parking in the garages? They have advertised 24 hour rates? I was thinking it would be easy to uber back and forth before and after the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffatsea Posted November 11, 2019 #6 Share Posted November 11, 2019 IF the Westin has a garage I'd call and ask them about parking for the cruise.IF they have 24 hr rates then of course you can park overnight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GradUT Posted November 12, 2019 #7 Share Posted November 12, 2019 You should not have a problem finding parking at LB for a midweek cruise on the Imagination. When we cruised that ship, we arrived later than your expected 11:30 am arrival time and were able to find a spot. I think we drove to the highest level, but there was plenty of parking.

pc_load_letter Posted November 14, 2019 #8 Share Posted November 14, 2019 The Long Beach cruise ship terminal has recently opened another lot that is accessible via shuttle. It's cheaper than the structure at $12 a day. You drive your car there and park and a shuttle will be there to pick you up. We are on the inaugural Panorama and was worried about parking (since it's 4000 people) but having the spill over lot has put our mind at ease. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TOMTOMRN331 Posted November 23, 2019 Author #10 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Can you park in overnight hotel lots for Queen Mary? Or do they enforce that somehow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanted to follow up if you remember/know where this lot is? Is it the convention parking that Carnival recently announced they secured? Thank you in advance.

jimd909 Posted December 18, 2019 #14 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I'll be cruising on Imagination next week 12/26 for a 3-day cruise. Will I have a problem parking at the cruise terminal or will I be stuck parking off-site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimd909 Posted December 30, 2019 #15 Share Posted December 30, 2019 Parking at the convention center wasn't the PITA I thought it would be. They have alot of busses to take you back and forth. The only thing I didn't like was after the cruise they dropped you off at the sidewalk before the parking lot. Was a bit of chaos with everyone getting their luggage and not alot of space. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st Posted January 1, 2020 #16 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Do you need to drop off your luggage at the port before parking at the convention center? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May i know the offsite parking lot (at 200 seaside way, long beach) is parking garage (couple story) or an open field parking lot? How is the security at the offsite parking lot (at 200 seaside way, long beach) since it's cheaper than long beach terminal parking garage?

I don't know how security is, but nothing happened to my vehicle there nor did I hear anyone else saying anything happened. I was parked there for a 3-day cruise just after Christmas from 12/26 - 12/29. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
douggw Posted February 7, 2020 #20 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I got an email back from Long Beach City saying they only let you park at the Convention Center and/or the City Lot A for the 3 and 4 days cruises now....and NOT for the Panorama 7 day. I wonder how they control it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
