Port of Baltimore question

[kangaand2roos]

We are sailing the Pride in February and my husband (a land lubber) will be dropping us off at the port. I know that sometimes the Pride can get in a little late,so I'm going to prepare for a bit of a wait if necessary, though we do have FTTF. My question, is what amenities, if any, does the port have? Any food offered, or should I bring snacks and drinks?

 

Thanks in advance!

I think I remember vending machines. But if that is not your thing you should probably bring something.

Nothing available in the port terminal. Its just some large rooms with chairs and the checkin desk at the front.

I would bring your own snacks and drinks if your think you might have a wait.

Thank you both! I suspected as much!

Our last cruise was out of Baltimore, the amenities were pretty sparse as you left. You probably won't get to bring food of the Ship. Customs confiscated a banana from my son.

The Port of Baltimore, after security and check in, there are snack and beverage vending machines by the rest rooms. This Port is not like the Port in NYC where the have pretzel, hot dog, and nut vendors right there at your disposal.

I'm thinking individually packaged stuff. I think they're ok with that.

In NYC the VIP check-in/waiting area has a table set up with danish, juice, water, etc. Don't know if they supply that in the general waiting area or if it's done at all in Baltimore.

nothing at all. and nothing within walking distance/nearby.

Well, as I'll be traveling with a 9 and an 11 year old, I'll come prepared with appropriate snacks and activities. I know cameras are not allowed to be used in the building, but what about iPads? Hopefully, none of this will be necessary and we will walk right on the ship, but with kids, it's better to prepare for the worst and hope for the best!

they made me turn off my Kindle Fire and my Iphone. couldn't even play games on them. and they walked around the entire area telling people the same thing..sometimes more than once( and by golly you better not get snippy.. they will be MORE than happy to escort you out of the secure area.

Yikes!:eek: So, I guess that would mean no iPad!

Just make sure nothing is open, say u have a coffee or pop & some out of it...anything open they will make u throw away because when u enter the terminal first thing is the scanners, then off to checkin & sit down...as long as it is not opened u will be ok....
