leekel619 Posted October 8, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2016 We walk off with our luggage. Usually home around 9. The airport isn't far. Less then 20 min (with moving traffic [emoji10]) The customs process is fast. People start lining up early. We went down around 7:00 and it was jammed. We were in Bliss. But it was orderly. I was told others went down at 6. What time is your flight. If nothing unusual happens and you line up early, you should be able to get to the airport by 10 the latest.

don't-use-real-name Posted October 8, 2016 #5 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Walk-Off commenced about 8:15 am gave Customs form to officer on deck 7 punched key card for the last time down two switchback gangways - inside Black Falcon Cruise Terminal down an escalator directed to taxi stand waited a couple minutes the starter groups people into cabs and vans going to the same place i.e. airport - seems like the taxi driver is driving in circles but look on a map to see how you get from the terminal to the airport - arrived at airport at about 10 minutes to nine - checked in for my flight departing at 11:25 and had a whole lot of time to wait - TSA lines a bigger hassle than getting off the DAWN. Kudo's to NCL - everything well organized and enough people to direct you on your way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Feet Posted October 8, 2016 Author #6 Share Posted October 8, 2016 Thank you all for info. We don't have a flight yet. We didn't want to book it until we had some expert info. We've never done BOS before but got a feel from your experience's. Think with self assist will schedule anything after 11am. BOS to ATL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don't-use-real-name Posted October 8, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 8, 2016 NCL offers a motor coach from cruise terminal to airport for $30 pp - but timing is for flights leaving after 1pm. The buses load up about 10-11am and depending on how many folks are leaving on one or more airlines will go directly to that airline with the most riders. A better bargain can be had with a taxi be it a small sedan or van for around $40 for a car load and less hassles visiting multiple terminals before getting to the one you are flying out of. Where ever NCL offers the bus ride to and from an airport "ASK QUESTIONS" and see if a less expensive more timely alternative is an option !
