poss Posted December 31, 2019 #1 Share Posted December 31, 2019 We have a cruise coming up on Regent, which I have learned docks at Terminal J. Questions: — I assume that there's safe, convenient parking near to where the ships dock? (Does anyone happen to know what daily rates are?) — How far is the walk from the parking area (the closest parking area) to the ship? — Is there an easy way to haul one's luggage? I ask because my husband and I are elderly, and we can't manage luggage very well. Are there baggage carts? porters? — I wonder if it ever happens that the close lot is full, simply unable to accept more cars? That would put us in a real bind. — I wonder what other sorts of questions I'm forgetting to ask, so that we have a smooth and comfortable transition. (Traveling is a good deal harder for us than it used to be, but I'm hoping to still be able to manage it.) Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, people will be disembarking and leaving before your arrival for embarkation. Just don't show up before 10 am or so to ensure that all the previous passengers have left.

JohninDC Posted January 1, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Drop bags with the porters, then park your car. Walk from parking to check-in is about 100 yards. Parking at POM is covered, convenient and secure, and costs $22 per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poss Posted January 1, 2020 Author #4 Share Posted January 1, 2020 Thanks to both of you. I'd be uncomfortable dropping bags with porters and then disappearing. Would I be able to drop my husband off with our luggage near where one checks in, then park, and meet him back there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
