Express luggage service upon disembarkation?

[jarand]

Does HAL offer a luggage service where they will transfer your luggage to the airport (for a fee) at the end of your cruise? We are trying to figure out what to do with luggage for a day in Boston when we have an evening flight. Thanks.

Yes. They generally offer that service if you are traveling the same day.

We have used it several times and have had no problems.

This site (on page 19) just lists three ports:http://www.hollandamerica.com/assets/cruise-vacation-onboard/KBYG.pdf

 

Luggage Direct is available on all or our vessels when sailing in and out of the following ports:

 

Anchorage

Fort Lauderdale

Seattle

or call 1-877-847-0045 to speak to one of our customer service representatives.

 

And the above HAL link has even different information (however it isn't called "Luggage Direct" but looks like the same thing):

Port of Seattle

It doesn't look like it is currently available in Vancouver; however, things change all the time. I'd definitely suggest calling Holland America to verify if it will be available there for your sailing.

Thanks for the replies. I have used Luggage Direct before and it is great and well worth the $$ ! This time we will be on a 3 week trip to Alaska and we need to bring clothes for all types of weather and conditions, including overnighting at a glacier ( Glamping ). So, needless to say, we'll have more luggage than we normally do and this service would be great ( since I also will have a son with Down Syndrome with me. )
