Luggage service

[tomnmkm]

Does Princess have the service to transfer your luggage to Fll at the end of cruises back?  I loved to use that.

[rjack22]

EZ Check.   Yes they do.

Thanks for the info.  I will look forward to using it again.

flight needs to be after 11:30.

Interesting, we have a very late flight out of FLL when we get back from our T/A. Could someone explain how this works as we would love to not deal with luggage after the cruise.

You can check with GS a few days before disembarking and ask for a form for EX Check.  Make sure to bring a copy of your return flight, showing names, ticket no, flight date and airline booking no.

 

You return the form and they submit it to the airline. It is a $25 charge per person and whatever the baggage fee is for the airline. (IF your airline charges you)

Not all airlines participate.

They give you a tag and instructions and basically you will see it at your destination in baggage when you land.

Great service.  Not offered at every port/airport, however it is offered at FLL.

Add: Not available for International flights.  Except Canada was an exception, due to pre clearance of flights.  This does vary, so check once OB with GS.

Just to confirm, for people who've sailed RT from Port Everglades recently, so EZ Check is back when flying out of FLL? Is that correct? That would be great news. It wasn't available the last 2 times we've sailed from there, since they restarted sailings.

Is this available if you book your own flights or just if you use EZ air?

[Potstech]

Either.

Anyone can use it.  You have to ask at GS though.  They used to offer it with all your debarkation information, but after restart, you have to ask for the form.  It will detail the airlines, etc.

What if the flight is at 11:30, will you be denied this service?  Thanks

Pre-covid it was available for flights leaving after 11:00 am from FLL and after Noon from MIA. Haven't used it since the re-start, but hopefully the same time frames apply.

[Potstech]

I could be off on the times as I have not used it post Covid. Out of town family members have.

Pre-covid it was after 11:30, and still is.  We couldn't get it one time, as our flight was 11:25.

Our flight is exactly 11:30...how would that work?

I would say you are good, but check at Guest Services for the definitive answer.
