Self Disembark Time

[Museofthesoul22]

First HAL cruise arriving in Port Everglades at 7 am. What's the average time self disembarking begin?

 

Trying to plan car service pick up.

About 7:30.

[take us away]

There are tons of cabs at the terminal which may be an option, especially if only going to the airport. The stevedores will assist with the luggage if needed.

 

Might be a good to book a car for a bit later as you will need to clear C&I and if a lot of ships in port, may be a bit delayed and there is usually a rush when disembarking is 1st announced.

Thanks! We're flying out of Miami so the car service isn't that much more then the taxi fare probably will be, plus my DW brings a lot of luggage so we might need an SUV pick us up [emoji13]

Check cruisetimetables.com to see how many ships are in port with you. I agree with takeusaway that if the CBP agents are "spread thinly" the debarkation could start later and the line could get long.

Got off the Maasdam this morning and we did the self disembarkation and were off the ship around 7:30. They had said it would be from 7:15-8:00. It was very easy and we were at FLL airport by 8:00 and at our gate by 8:10.

You can plan on leaving the ship in the 7:15-7:30 range.

We usually self-disembark and like others, our experience has been we are off the ship around 7:30.

Thank you again everyone for the info :-)

 

We are flying out of MIA at 12:15pm, so I being paranoid want to get off early.

What service did you use? We will self-disembark and are flying out of MIA. Regards, Tom

You may not get a reply as this thread was started last October. Those people have already sailed and are doing other things now.

[twroths]

You replied :) But you are probably right...I will do a new post.

I have found some on TripAdvisor but still like a personal information.

I was the original poster on this. :-)

 

We did self disembark and was at the MIA airport by 9am, so we had plenty of time before our flight. We hung out in the AA lounge there until our flight departed since I had access.

 

We used Moveo as our transport provider both from MIA and to MIA. Great service, prompt and very reasonable. We had a newer suburban both ways which was great for our 5 suitcases :-)
