Rare orville99 Posted March 31, 2019 #26 Share Posted March 31, 2019 We sail on Oasis out of Port Canaveral about 4 times a year - February, May, August, and October - and have always seen a very international mix on board. As for "drive ins", we've never seen the attached parking garage full on any of our cruises (and we drive in), but do see a steady stream of busses coming down the 528 from the theme park areas going to the port. We just got off of a weekender on Enchantment on Monday, and the garage was at best half full (and Oasis departs on Sunday). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often, I implore my southern friends to talk "southern" to me.😊 We will talk to y'all however y'all want! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Judyrem Posted March 31, 2019 #28 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Oh Joe, the Scots are not "foreign", they are our cousins across the pond and there are many Americans with Scottish ancestry. I would be happy to meet you especially if you are wearing a KILT, or not😉. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare island lady Posted March 31, 2019 #32 Share Posted March 31, 2019 (edited) Your biggest demograph will a LOT of kids. July is prime time for families with school out. Families that are coming in from all countries. Many combine the "land of the mouse" with a cruise. And now with Coco Cay and the new theme park set up...will be even more.

I haven't sailed from there before, and given that it is known to be a port where many drive in, I'm guessing that it will be a mostly American demographic. Coming from Scotland, I'm slightly worried that I'll be an outsider on this ship. It felt like that on Anthem a few years ago where almost every guest was from NY/NJ. Sailing out of Barcelona on the Symphony last year was nice since no particular nationality dominated the ship, it felt like a good mix of cultures. Anyone who has sailed the Canaveral 7 nighters, what is the typical demographic like? Probably lots of US families as it is summer vacation for the kids.

DustFSU Posted March 31, 2019 #38 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Orlando Airport brings in a lot of International flights, so I am sure there will be a good amount of European's on the ship, plus they do Disney for a few days before heading to the ship, so its a win win for them coming so far.
