Something must be going on with Pier 35, which is where she was originally scheduled, as there are two ships in SF that day. Hi. Can you tell me where I can confirm Pier80 please? Everywhere I look says Pier 35 and I will book a hotel in a different location if it’s 80. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All SF official docs state just Pier 27 for Crown and Pier 35 for Grand Edited April 14 by AZjohn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobo1937 Posted April 14 #29 Share Posted April 14 If you go to the website sfport.com and make sure you are looking at the 4/5/24 update it shows Pier 80. The roll call for the Pacific Coastal 4/27 also has some info about this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you so much, I had checked this website but did not find the April update previously Please excuse my artwork, this clearly shows Pier 80 and I guess I’m rebooking hotel. Was an easy walk to Pier 35 from the one I had booked. Edited April 14 by molly2kit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are returning on the Crown on the 27th but looks like our Pier 27 hasn’t changed so hopefully our pickup will not be affected. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was an easy walk to Pier 35 from the one I had booked. There are no hotels within walking distance in this area. It is a cargo dock in an industrial area. The roll call for the Grand Princess Coastal 4/27 has some posts regarding walking around the area especially with luggage. Best to take a taxi or uber. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most native Californians find that term as a reference to our home state ridiculous and lazy. For example I would never refer to some other US states as “Flori”, “Ari”, “Washi” , “Virgi”, or “Monti”, just to rattle off a few examples to illustrate how silly it is. Just call it by its proper name like you would any other state. We live in California. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welp, the San Francisco City Attorney filed a lawsuit against the Port of Oakland across the bay because they renamed their airport "San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RGEDad Posted April 23 #43 Share Posted April 23 Just back from a cruise on Princess from pier 27. Had an absolute worst time getting to the actual terminal due to the (IMHO) mishandling of traffic into the terminal. In all of my years of cruising I have never seen mis-planned traffic management in the port area such as at this terminal. Traffic was backed up for an hour while traffic crept into the terminal one car at a time. I was in an Uber and spend nearly an hour in the stopped traffic getting into the port. There is a totally unused open area right next to the drop-off that was totally clear of cars and unused for passenger drop-off. My Uber bill had a $33 charge for traffic time waiting. In getting off the ship I elected to use the Princess Bus to the airport. That went quite well as the bus was waiting for us once out of the terminal. When departing I noted the exact same traffic back-upon the road leading into the terminal from the taxis and Ubers trying to get in to pick-up passengers. Not sure what to do about getting into the port as even the busses were held up in the traffic jam. Possibly get out across the street and walk across with your luggage. But in leaving the port I would recommend some sort of bus (like the Princess bus) as they are there waiting in the lot prior to the traffic back-up.

marden1970 Posted April 23 #44 Share Posted April 23 @RGEDad What time did you arrive? Perhaps that was the reason? We've cruised many times from Pier 27 and never had that problem. We usually arrive before 11AM. since we need to checkout of the hotel by then. Maybe it's less busy then. I wonder if the previous cruise was a little late getting in? We usually do the latest disembark since we don't need to get anywhere right away so it's usually pretty cleared out by then and easy to get a cab. I'm sorry you did not have a better start to your cruise. Sometimes something like that will put a damper on your whole day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
