OnlineMom Posted March 8, 2008 #1 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Can anyone tell me how the transfers purchased through Carnival (to/from MCO) work exactly? I tried searching the archives for half an hour today but kept getting an error message. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firsttimescaredcruiser! Posted March 8, 2008 #2 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Sorry, don't know about MCO. We had transfers from Miami airport to the pier. It was a bus. The employees were waiting on us when we came off the plane. Walked us to get our luggage then to the bus. We waited on a few people (from another flight) then straight to pier. Porters took our luggage, we walked into terminal. EASY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

portia1780 Posted March 9, 2008 #4 Share Posted March 9, 2008 It was the same coming out of Orlando. Only thing that threw me was that there were several Carnival coaches all together for whatever the different ships were, and I don't think that the Carnival Glory bus (ours) was well marked. However, there were plenty of Carnival people hearding you through... including some cute little old ladies! :o) I would rate it as very easy, though it was hard for DH to ride past all the signs for Disney World. hahaha Have a great time!

gazingm42 Posted March 9, 2008 #6 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I would think twice before using the cruise line transfers. There been post before where PAX miss the cruise due to issues with sub contractor (mears) on these transfers. I would use a taxi to get transfered. I have read where folks will rent a car from the airport oneway to the port. Its cheaper if you have the time. http://www.expertcruiser.com/ombudsman/missed-the-ship-what-now/ http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=452199 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What excursion did you take there? We only did the Rainforest. It took an hour to get there. Then we just walked around close to the pier and shopped--- ATE AT WENDYS!!:D Got the liquor ad at the pier carnival matched the ad price. Loved it!!! Loved St. Thomas! Loved the beach area in Half Moon Cay. Liked the seclusion of Grand turks beach. Hubby deep sea fished. I walked the beach and went back to the ship and ordered room service. If I had been smart I would have tried out the spa services that day! Where are you going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
