GJustice Posted February 22 #1 Share Posted February 22 We HATE flying, but looking at Galveston schedules into 2026 it looks like we have no choice but to depart from Florida to get anywhere different. 😞 Which of the four (FLL, PCN, MIA, TPA) is the easiest to travel through coming from DFW area? DW has mobility issues, so availability of wheelchair assistance at terminal(s) and on-board scooter rental/pickup/dropoff are important factors. I'd like to pick one as our "Second Home port" since we only cruise once or twice a year and like having a "routine" pre/post cruise. Given the travel required, most likely only looking at 7+ night itineraries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at ships/itineraries you would like - not much diff in the airports to sway that decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare jeffr6596 Posted February 22 #3 Share Posted February 22 I love cruising out of Port Canaveral. It has been the easiest embarkation process I have seen. I'm headed there next week and hope I didn't just jinx myself 😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking it might be worthwhile reposting your question on the cruise air forum as that would widen your audience to cruisers from other lines too.

I booked eastern, xmas (grand bahamas, labadee) and southern on adventure for the ports. Adventure does alternating 6 and 8 days. The 8 days have the best variety. Southern obviously is ABC islands. Eastern is VISITING: Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic San Juan, Puerto Rico Charlotte Amalie, St. Thomas St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands Orlando (Port Canaveral), Florida Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfganghowell Posted February 22 #6 Share Posted February 22 The easiest one is Ft Lauderdale - the port is just minutes away from the airport. Port Canaveral is fine but you have to fly into Orlando and shuttle service is great, you are looking at 45 minute transfer - without traffic. And the Orlando airport is insane with all the Disney/Universal people. I haven't done the others but my two cents would be FLL. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
