Long Beach Port Luggage Drop

[Mbcruiser704]

If we arrive early for our check-in time, can we drop our luggage with porters and wander over to the Queen Mary or a lunch spot?

Yes, shouldnt be a problem.

No problem. The porters will have a drop off area near the corner of the parking garage.

Anytime after 10am, the porters will take your luggage.

If you are going to be parking a car, last month there was no parking available at the terminal for our cruise. They were handing people a map to somewhere and to take a shuttle back, although you could drop luggage off.

 

Other than Queen Mary, not sure how close anything else would be for food.

You most certainly can. Your arrival time doesn't matter at all until you are in line to enter the dome. The porters don't care what time you're supposed to be getting on the ship, only that they get your luggage onto that ship before it leaves.

This is only for the Miracle passengers, if you’re sailing on the Radiance or Panorama you park in the terminal garage. They only have enough parking for two ships so the Miracle passengers park off site and use the shuttles Carnival provides. I was on the same cruise, it worked great for embarkation but was a mess when we returned. If you are on the Miracle be sure to take your luggage with you on the shuttle to the garage so you don’t have to come back to the terminal. I think the problem was it was a 14 day to Alaska and there was a lot of luggage that needed to be picked up at the same time the following cruise was dropping off theirs.
