klumpp6 Posted February 22, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 22, 2023 We have a group of 7 arriving on the NCL Jade on Sunday, June 4. The itinerary says the ship docks at 7 am. We would like to book a flight to Rome at 11:00 am. If we carry off our bags and book a transfer company to take us to the airport. Does that allow enough time. Do we need to go through any kind of customs to get off the boat? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare marazul Posted February 22, 2023 #2 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Plenty of time. You do not go through customs to get off the boat. Look at taxigreece.com for transfers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ship should be cleared on arrival unless there are any individual issues. 11am is pushing the limit assuming that the ship arrives on time-- especially with 7 people which will make you a bit less nimble then say a couple. Figure you're off the ship by 8 and without traffic you're about 45 minutes to the airport and Athens airport, while not large, is not one of the best organized in Europe. Security can be lengthy unless you have enhanced access through cabin class or status. If you are flying a carrier that has a second Rome flight later in the day I think it's a reasonable calculated risk with the backup plan being you could always rebook for the later flight. I would book a driver there to be waiting for you at the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klumpp6 Posted February 23, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted February 23, 2023 I have contacted george's taxi. They said it is not a problem if we are off the boat around 7:30. So we will be able to walk off at 7 am? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare marazul Posted February 23, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 23, 2023 George's taxi will be right dockside. Even if you walk out at 7:30 you will be fine. The traffic will be very light sunday morning. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
