Can RCI take your luggage to the airport at the end of a cruise?

[Sun Lover]

 

We will be on a cruise in November on Voyager of the Seas and the last day when we disembark our flight isn't until 6 p.m.  I know one time years ago RCI had an option that allowed you to pay to have them transport your luggage to the airport for you and hold it until your flight .  Does anyone know if this is still an option?

Royal Caribbean Luggage Valet... The page keeps crashing on me... So I guess it doesn't currently exist.

Not sure that was ever an option in San Juan. The only one currently working I think is in Seattle - offered by another entity.

Yes, that's it - luggage valet.  We used it once for a cruise out of Florida.  That's too bad that it's not offered now.  That was very convenient.

We used in two weeks ago out of Seattle and its run by the City of Seattle. Not sure if the Florida ports brought it back since start up.

Never an option in San Juan due to the agriculture check.

"RCI" luggage valet hasn't resumed post-covid.

Also note that you can't check luggage in until 3 hours before the flight.  The storage room isn't reliably manned, so if you do use it allow an hour to get your bags out.

That's an agreement with the Seattle airport with every cruise line.

We asked about it on a recent cruise out of Miami.  No dice.  Years ago you could check your bags through to the airline,  but no more.  Hopefully that will change in the future.  It was really convenient.

I believe checking in luggage will depend on the class of service booked. Flying bus/first it shouldn't be a problem checking it in early....or at least it hasn't when needing to.

At MIA we were able to check our luggage 9 hrs before our flight, no problem.
