WAS2 Posted September 7, 2015 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2015 A question about the T3 Port Bus in Barcelona. *We cruise the NCL Epic in November. *While most of the boat is disembarking in Barcelona, a few of us embark out of Rome. *Since Barcelona *is just a typical port day for us, we want to get up and off the ship prior to the disembarkation madness. * The ship arrives in barcelon*at 5 am. *The question at hand is what time do the T3 Port Buses start? *The websites all say "based on cruise arrivals". *Pretty vague. *It's a disembarkation day for many so I imagine that they will start early to accommodate those travelers. * Needless to say, I was trying to avoid getting off the ship really early- with no way to get into Barcelona other than taxi or walking.* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawkeyetlse Posted September 7, 2015 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2015 we want to get up and off the ship prior to the disembarkation madness.[…] I was trying to avoid getting off the ship really early I don't have a lot of first-hand experience with 5am arrivals :eek:, but I suspect that your two goals may be mutually incompatible… I think there are always enough people who want off the ship ASAP so that the disembarkation madness starts pretty much as soon as the ship docks (especially on a larger ship like Epic). The only way to get off prior to that is to jump :D Here is a post suggesting that the port bus doesn't start operating until 8am. Which seems very late to me, but I would also be surprised if they were already up and running at 5:30am for the very first passengers off the ship. Whenever they start, all morning long there will be a steady stream of other passengers trying to take this bus at the same time as you, so if you really want to avoid the crowds, maybe you could consider walking into town in the morning. It takes about half an hour, give or take depending on exactly where the ship docks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
