esm54687 Posted May 24, 2017 Author #101 Share Posted May 24, 2017 How was the parking situation in the new open air parking and the shuttle service? I enjoyed parking at the garage, it was very convenient. Can't speak for the shuttle part but the open air lot I stayed in was outstanding..... easy walk and easy exit. This is the same lot you could park in previously that's not listed on the Massport site (next to ship at her bow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nuncie Posted May 24, 2017 #103 Share Posted May 24, 2017 I thought the only lot closer by is the garage. I guess I will find out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

esm54687 Posted May 24, 2017 Author #105 Share Posted May 24, 2017 $20/day... when I went a couple weeks back, I arrived at 10am, the garage was only for "overflow" from the other lots but some reported that when they arrived at 9-930 they could park there.

Rare mesci14 Posted June 9, 2017 #109 Share Posted June 9, 2017 My Husband uses a CPap. Will the cord be able to reach the outlet, or should I bring an extension cord? I do as well and he will need an extension cord as there is none by the bed. CPAP almost long enough, but not quite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panama Garry This must be the CPAP Support thread. lol ME TOO (and my wife).... extension cord a must.... also had no issues getting free distilled water.

pegdave Posted July 19, 2017 #116 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Just boarded and the order is: 1) Ambassador, Platinum Plus, Platinum 2) Special Assistance 3) Numbered Groups No CAS priority except getting a lower number. I received Group 3 and arrived at 10am. If you are looking to park in the garage, it is only available for overflow of the open air lots. The original Massport open air parking lot that is located at the bow (one they said was closed).... is open ($20 / day) - this was a pleasant surprise as I love this lot and the easy access. They were asking your "arrival time" but not checking or enforcing. They staggered people going up the escalator which made going through security a breeze and checkin fast. Hi it's our first time out of Boston. We have done New York a lot . Can't decide on driving or taking the train. We live in Connecticut probably around the same price. But I did some research and there seems to a garage .3 miles away called Air Rights Garage. They say no reservations. Do you know anything about this garage? Or could you suggest the best parking ? Thank you ! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk If you take the train, South Station is very close to the Black Falcon Cruise Port. You can grab a cab from South Station and be there quickly. I don't like driving in Boston, and always take the commuter rail into the city. When we come into the cruise port, we use a car service. Just saying.

descal13 Posted July 19, 2017 #118 Share Posted July 19, 2017 My husband uses a CPAP, so I called NCL's accessibility assistance number, 877-584-9756 to let them know we would be bringing that and a portable O2 concentrator aboard. They were so nice, and asked if we needed distilled water, saying it would be in our stateroom courtesy of NCL. I think it is wise to call ahead rather than try to bring it aboard and have your luggage sent to the naughty suitcase room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Falcon Terminal Flynn Cruiseport (Boston) https://www.massport.com/port-of-boston/cruiseport-boston/ Shuttle & Cell Phone Lot: 22 Fid Kennedy Ave, Boston, MA 02210 ($20 / $19 pre pay) Bow Lot: EDIC Pier, Boston, MA 02210 ($20) (this my preference) Garage: 12 Drydock Ave, South Boston, MA 02210 ($20) - If driving .... continue all the way down Drydock Ave and it will loop around to the right and turn into Black Falcon Ave. Stay in line of cars and after the taxi line, pull left to unload luggage to porters. If you want to park in "Bow Lot" then continue on approx 0.12 miles and lot is on left. Pay, Park and walk the 3 minutes back to pier. Since you already dropped off your luggage, stay along the right (away from people getting off buses, being dropped off) and head to escalator that says "this way to ship". You do NOT have to stay in the huge middle line as those are the people dropping off luggage.... just walk around them.
