Tn1387 Posted September 8, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 8, 2023 I couldn’t make my mind up between Carnival and Royal Caribbean. I know you can do back-to back cruises on the same ship, but what would the challenges logistically be to end a 4 night on one, disembark and go to the other and start a new cruise? Are the two terminals too far apart to walk between? I would think either would disembark in plenty of time to check in and start the other right?

CruiserBruce Posted September 8, 2023 #4 Share Posted September 8, 2023 When its on two different ships or cruise lines, its called a "side to side", or S2S. If you look at the Florida Departures Board, here: https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/386-florida-departures/ You will see the logistics discussed on how to get from one ship to another, if not walkable. Yes, you will be off your first ship well in advance of when you can board the other. Orlando is not a port, Port Canaveral is the port in the area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joebucks Posted September 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Seeing that they are all generally at the "same port", it is not unheard of to walk. Uber is also a possibility. There really aren't many extreme challenges here, I wouldn't think too much of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribsun Posted September 8, 2023 #6 Share Posted September 8, 2023 Click on map, it may be too long of a walk with luggage. Port Canaveral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Essiesmom Posted September 8, 2023 #7 Share Posted September 8, 2023 If it is too long to walk, just get a taxi. Don’t be in a hurry to get off the first ship, as check in for the second probably won’t start until 1030-1100. Have a leisurely breakfast, debark with the last guests and make your way to the next ship. EM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were actually considering two cruises on two different cruise lines from Port Canaveral. Everything I've read about this subject on the Florida Departures board says taxis won't take you, since it's only a very short ride. Not worth their time, especially with most other passengers going to the airport or into the city. But I suppose you could always ask.

Rare Essiesmom Posted September 10, 2023 #10 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Perhaps, in theory. But it will be easy to get another fare at the second terminal. And few take a cab to the airport…in Orlando 40 minutes away. EM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisercl Posted September 11, 2023 #11 Share Posted September 11, 2023 I have done it in Miami - Celebrity to NCL. It was no issue, took a taxi, had big luggage. A fare for the taxi driver is better than just waiting in line.... I tipped well. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
