ChiefMateJRK Posted November 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I know that Terminal B is NCL's new terminal in Miami, and that will be the disembarkation terminal for any sailing when only one NCL ship is in port. I also know that, on occasion, there will be two NCL sailings from Miami on the same day. How do we confirm the terminal assignments on these days?

I just discovered that the Pearl will be at C and not B when I sail. REALLY good to know! How the heck does NCL expect us to know this stuff? The eDocs just list the address for port of Miami.

You just look for your ship when you're pulling up to the port! 🙂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll just tell my Uber/Lyft driver to cruise around the port until I spot my ship. I'm sure we'll find it after two or three laps. Did I mention that my last Uber driver in Miami didn't speak English? Once we finally found out it was "B," he seemed to be able to understand and get us there. For those who haven't sailed out of Miami, please note that the port is huge and it is anything but obvious how to find and get to a specific ship. I'm guessing @KSSS2013knows this, but is trying to be funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are correct....but you might be able to guess by looking at the port Webcam before you head down there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one? Port Miami Webcam - Cruise Ship and Scenic Web Cam in Miami Florida I can't see how that would be any help. Or, is there another? Why would anybody want to "guess?" This was a serious request for useful information. Fortunately, @shof515was very helpful. Thanks again shof.

By looking at the webcam you should be able to cross reference the ship location with the port on Google Maps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, I was on the Joy, which would have gotten terminal B if there were multiple ships in port (leaving the 'auxiliary' terminal for a smaller ship. I'll be sailing from there again 2 months from tomorrow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to assume that an Uber/Lyft driver in a Port area would know where I needed to go (I was wrong in January). We had to roll down a window and ask a port employee where the NCL Sky was.

Sand and Seas Posted November 27, 2023 #22 Share Posted November 27, 2023 When we disembarked Joy on October 28th, I was surprised we were at Terminal C. Terminal B, the new NCL terminal, did not have a ship. Not sure why they had us at C🤔 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
