BCN - Advice

Recommended Posts

We disembark the Symphony on a Tuesday next October and we have a noon flight. Unlike our recent Allure cruise where we took advantage of luggage valet and had our boarding passes, mobile passport and TSA pre check.........BCN will be a little different. We were there years ago but could use your help......understanding that summer months now might be a little busier than it will be in October.

 

 

We prefer not stressing and leaving ourselves a very safe cushion waiting at the gate.

 

What time do you suggest we leave the ship? Should we self disembark (it would not be a problem...our cabin is on deck 8)? Are the kiosks at BCN easy to use to get our boarding passes or better to head to a window (we are flying Delta)? Any advice would be appreciated......Thank you!

I should have read some of the previous posts first. I think it might be best if we self disembark around 6:30am and just head to BCN. I downloaded the Delta app to my phone so I guess I can check in via the app.........disembarking the ship any later would not be worth it.....

With a flight time at noon...you are correct to go directly there.

You have answered your own question. :):) Self disembarking that early will mean that taxi queues are reduced. When I have got off the ship that early I have had breakfasted in my stateroom by having a yoghurt and drink ready from the day before. Breakfast passes the time at the airport.
