Disembarking at a Different Port

[IrishLassie]

Has anyone disembarked at a port before your final destination & if so, what arrangements did you have to make with the cruise line?

Need specifics to answer as it could be governed under the PVSA.

 

Need embarkation and debarkation port and the port you want to leave at.

It would be on a TA from Tampa to Barcelona, but we would like to get off in Malaga as it's closer to our Grandson & his family that we are planning on visiting for a week or so.

Yes that can be done.  Call Royal to arrange and they now charge a fee to do this.  

 

E mail on contact is in this link.

It will cost you $65 or more.

Yes, it can be done since you are getting off at non-USA port so PVSA  cabotage law does not come into play. Contact RCI to arrange.

We just got off X Eclipse repositoning cruise from San Diego to Vancouver  on Wednesday and some passengers did  their disembarkation at our last port stop in Victoria BC the day prior. They couldn't have done so at Seattle the day before since we did not have a distant foreign port stop on that itinerary to meet PVSA requirements which the closest likely would have been South American.

Does the cruise line help with your luggage etc. when you disembark early? 

 

Also, thanks to everyone for this info, really appreciate it.

OK, thanks.  Might have to scale down on the luggage!  LOL

Forgot to ask, will we pay less for the cruise since we would be getting off early & then just pay the extra $65. ?

No.  You will still pay the full applicable fare and then any added fees above that

The grats will be pro-rated to the day you leave.
