cruisinunlimited Posted July 25, 2007 #1 Share Posted July 25, 2007 Has anyone had any problems at the Ft. Lauderdale airport/US Airways and getting checked in (boarding passes)? The last two cruises we waited 2+hours in line. Our next cruise on CB we will print our boarding passes out in the internet cafe before we dock...but does anyone know where at the airport to check your bags without standing in the long ticket counter line. Are there skycaps for the airlines outside to take luggage and issue luggage tags??:confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just reted a luggage cart, "people watched" and grabbed a good book... My next cruise is a CC Group cruise (that we're hosting) it leaves on a Wed and returns on a Thurs to avoid that problem, plus prices are cheaper! Don't let it spoil a great cruise!!!

Yes, the skycaps are outside, right where the taxi leaves you off. It was a big help, I didnt mind paying it either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
