Downtown Boston to Black Falcon?

[Intrepid]

How far is Black Falcon from downtown? Are there any options besides taxis to get from South Station to the pier?

This is from the Black Falcon website:

 

Public Transportation:

Public transportation is available via the Silver Line Waterfront bus. For more information on fares and schedules, call 1 (800) 392-6100 or check the MBTA website (http://www.mbta.com).

I strongly suggest taking a taxi. It won't be very expensive, and trying to take luggage, etc. on a silver line bus...you will begin your vacation much more relaxed if you grab a cab.

Silverline to the watefront is not packed at all on Sundays. If you're just dealing with one or two bags, it's not too bad. Drops you off right at Black Falcon. Any more than 2 bags, it's probably better to grab a cab. The line runs about every 25 minutes.

Since we're talking about Black Falcon Terminal, I have a sorta related question. We're taking the RCCL Jewel Sep 23 Canada/New England cruise. I've never cruised out of Boston and am wondering how soon you're able to disembark. We're Diamond so we'll be able to get the white tags, but I wanted to know if I could make a 10am flight out or not. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You might be able to......if the ship arrives at 7, critical information which you have failed to mention. What will you do if ship is a late arrival?

10am is REALLY pushing it. If you have not experienced it, Logan is a nightmare of an airport. IMO - Better plan on a noon flight or later.
