NCL Hotel to Cruise Terminal transportation

[Samstress]

I was just wondering (well..actually my sister was asking) if anyone has any experience with using NCL's transportation from their pre cruise hotel to the ship.

We are sailing from Boston & have booked a hotel (the Millennium Boston Hotel) not thru NCL, but on our own for the night prior.

Is there still a possibility to use NCL's transportation service? And is there any advantage to doing this? I just always assumed that if you didn't book your hotel thru NCL that this service would not be available....

 

Thanks in advance for any and all info.

Cheers,

Sandy.

Even if it was available a cab would probably be cheaper. According to Taxi fare finder it should only be $12.70 for a taxi. Usually transfers are more than that per person.

I don't think so but there may be a check in counter for NCL guestsat the hotel if so they should be able to do the boarding for them, at that time she could ask there may be a charge or they may say yes or no.

That's true usually $12 pp

Things could be different in other cities and new changes implemented BUT

I thought that NCL pre-post cruise transportation was to only airports or

maybe in the East coast to Amtrak train stations.

Maybe NCL does have a bus (motor coach) that frequents hotels with a large

enough crowd to make it viable.

Other cruise lines have variable transportation based on class of cabin i.e.

suites some complimentary and others with a service charge.

 

East Coast NCL cruisers care to expound on this - comments ???

Should be an interesting read for future cruise planning !

Thanks for the replies. It's exactly what I thought...not really worth the trouble. I'll save the extra bucks for my 'dirty martinis:)
