There are only two, Pier 2 and 10/11 (Aloha Tower). Look for your ship in the schedule below.

Thank you for the link!

if we use the Turo option or Avis, approximately how much is the car rental for the day?

thank you! I have been thinking about doing this for a day on our cruise!

YAY!! a new milestone! just got the email from my concierge! thanks everybody. can't wait to board the ship and see my suite!

I have only 4 days to go until the cruise. we will leave town on tuesday (early). we are in a grand suite. I guess I will see if I get an email on monday. after monday, I will just check the letter in our room after we board. I suppose it is not a big deal, but every little step is closer to our trip and I get excited!

please correct me if I am mistaken but does the concierge email ahead of our cruise if we are in a suite? or is it hit or miss? I thought I read somewhere on this forum that they usually email 5-7 days before we cruise. I cannot find the thread from before to confirm what I read. we have never sailed in a suite before and I am looking forward to verifying the "perks" of a suite.

we sail on Adventure on 5/4/23 out of Ft. Lauderdale so we are at the 5 day countdown! YAY!

thanks everybody! just a little anxious since this is our first time driving to the port.

we sail on 5/4

thank you!

RC adventure of the seas

my cruise leaves on may 4th (Happy Star wars day!). when I google search the port schedule, I can only see 7 days worth of the schedule. I can look on thursday (4/27) to see which port we will depart from but how do I know which port we will return to? it is a 9 day cruise.

did you guys feel safe? was there food and drinks at those beaches? (Jolly, Darkwood, Valley Church) were there chairs or umbrellas (for shade)? are there aggressive vendors? do I make arrangements in advance for the return trip or just get the nearest ride? 

sorry for all the questions but this is a new port for us and I want to make sure we know we are safe and have a nice beach day

how do I find out which terminal RC adventure of the seas will leave from and return to at port everglades? I am trying to decide which garage to park in. are there shuttles between the parking garages?

how do I find out which terminal my ship will leave from and come back to?

thank you!  that helps make my decision

I ordered the liquor with soda mixer pre-cruise yesterday morning but I still have not gotten an email verifying the purchase. I printed the screen shot with the order number and it says they will email an order confirmation. at what point do I worry? should I call to ask about the confirmation or wait until we are closer to cruise date? (we cruise on May 4, 2023)

You can not purchase a bottle of liquor onboard for your room.  It can only be done pre cruise (and not available on all ships or sailings)

thank you!  that helps make my decision

is the price higher if we request the bottle of liquor after we get on board? or is the price the same?

we are booked in a suite on Adventure in May. I usually pack my lighted magnifying mirror to put on makeup but I saw on a you tube video that one is provided in the suite. this may be a dumb question but does anybody know what magnification the mirror is? as I get more "wisdom" I have more trouble seeing. 🤪 thank you!

On oasis class you definitely do , older classes no.

sounds like it will be a no since we are on adventure of the seas. am I right?

question: do we get free wi-fi in the suite? I have read that we do but did not see it on the list of suite perks

thanks so much!!

we will be on Adventure of the seas on 5/4 and are debating getting a bottle of Rum or Vodka for the room to mix our own drink for the balcony. I have seen a price list long ago but cannot find it. I am tired of sifting thru the posts. can anyone post a liquor bottle price list?

Is the Concierge someone you should/need to tip for the help getting off the ship?

good question

@StormySeas Were you expecting different answer in two different threads?

 

 

yes. I accidently posted this twice. (not a newbie, just not paying attention!)

you guys are so helpful. and funny!! keep all the tips coming! I hope to use everything they offer and get my DH addicted to a suite so we can do it more often!
