VTSKIandCRUISEGUY Posted October 12, 2022 #29 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Any port that they make me leave the ship is my least favorite disembarkation port 🤪 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retired dude Posted October 12, 2022 #32 Share Posted October 12, 2022 favorite-tampa, least favorite for disembark is miami with the conveyer belt luggage mess and the horrible process of getting off of the ship on the explorer with no one monitoring who gets off the ship whenever they want to with no regard for everyone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BND Posted October 12, 2022 #35 Share Posted October 12, 2022 For ease, Baltimore hands down. It is literally right off I-95 and is easy in, easy out. For actual sail out? I'd say whichever port I'm in because that means we are onboard and going somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll be cruising out on 13 Nov for the second leg of our b2b on Jewel and it was announced today that Artemis is scheduled to launch on 14 Nov, window opens at 1207 am so DH and I plan to stay up as we head towards Nassau and find a place to watch outside (possibly our balcony as we're port side so we'll make a game day decision on that based on our heading). It won't be as close as in PC, but we'll be able to see it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Deeliteful Posted October 12, 2022 #37 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Favourites - Barcelona, Southampton, Vancouver (especially if you stay at the Pan Pacific Hotel as you get the lift down to the dock, fabulous). Least favourite probably Bayonne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I can drive there in 90 minutes and don't have to deal with flying hassles. Baltimore is a longer drive for me, but easy in and out. The drawback is the limited sailing options. Baltimore is nice with only $15/day parking (unless it went up this year). They are very easy in and out. All of our sailings this year have been out of Cape Liberty as we didn't want to deal with flights this year. I agree the downside of Cape Liberty is that long line of cars to drop off luggage. It is usually best to get there first thing in the morning or wait until early afternoon when there is no line and you can walk right onto the ship and go straight to your cabin. Sailing out of Bermuda used to be very easy too Edited October 12, 2022 by Sunshine3601 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
birdylady Posted October 12, 2022 #40 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Favorite, probably Port Canaveral as it’s drivable and easy embarkation (at least in the newer terminal. ). Granted they get you for parking. Also easy disembarkation and hitting the road. least favorite- Seattle and San Juan are a tie. Seattle due to the horrible one lane in for 2 cruise lines and then having to fight the sea of people to get luggage through security and back through sea of people to head to checkin. San Juan as the employees were rude, no clear signage and having to wait outside inin the sun with no shade. Of course the taxis charging about double to take you back to the airport vs what they charged to bring you there. just our experiences and opinions.

Those are cool since they land the outer boosters at the cape. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chill6x6 Posted October 13, 2022 #46 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Farorite- EASILY San Juan! The culture, history, beautiful departure. Second favorite- Ft Lauderdale. Minutes from the airport. Just a great place to cruise from! Least favorite- Galveston. Getting there from an airport is a bummer. Not very picturesque. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sgmn Posted October 13, 2022 #49 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) Favourite = Southampton, easy 1 hour drive, parking right outside the ship, bags collected by the porters direct from car, lovely sail out down the solent to the open ocean Least favourite = Galveston. International flights from UK only to Houston, IAH. Long, not very scenic drive to port. Though we enjoyed visiting the Space Centre I found hotels in Seattle and Boston very expensive, though no problems with the ports Edited October 13, 2022 by sgmn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
