GreenValleyDogWalker Posted September 23, 2014 #1 Share Posted September 23, 2014 Does anyone know if NCL's "BAGS" (Baggage Airline Guest Services) Program is available in NOLA ? (I've seen many posts talking about it in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale - available only in those ports ? Disembarking from the NCL Dawn - would love to not have to hassle luggage to the MSY airport Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWTONCRUISE Posted September 23, 2014 #2 Share Posted September 23, 2014 If memory serves, I think the last time we were in NOLA they didn't do the bags service. We took the ship City tour which left the ship and ended at the airport along with you bags. It wasn't a lot more expensive than just getting transportation to the airport. It's a way to see some of the city, very informative, and also not have to worry about you bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked it out and found it is only for flights after 3:00 PM., ours is at 2:40. Guess it's on to plan "C" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhinomike Posted September 23, 2014 #4 Share Posted September 23, 2014 In NOLA they have a few private companies that can take your bags, hold them and/or deliver your bags to the airport. We used them last year on Carnival. Worked great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HPINE1 Posted September 23, 2014 #6 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I did a cruise out of nola last year and they didn't have a bag program then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAWTONCRUISE Posted September 24, 2014 #7 Share Posted September 24, 2014 (edited) Thought that might me an idea for us if the "bags" program were not available. Checked it out and found it is only for flights after 3:00 PM., ours is at 2:40. Guess it's on to plan "C" I believe our flight was after 3:00 pm but we got to the airport with plenty of time to spare, ( a couple of hours?) I don't think 2:40 would be a problem, but you never know. Anyway, it was a nice easy way to transition out of cruise mode. LOL Additionally, read some mixed reviews about the private companies handling the bags. Could be worth it if you want to do a little sightseeing on your own.
