Abneo Posted November 8, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2006 I am new to the boards and have a silly question. My wife and I will be taking our first cruise on Feb. 25th, 2007. We are both very excited, however I am a little worried about one thing. I one of those people who will go nuts without my beloved Mt.Dew. Now I know I am allowed to carry on soda with me on the ship however my dilemma is where to get the soda. We are flying from Des Moines to Orlando (We booked Air fare through Carnival) From there we will be taking the Carnival shuttle to Port Canaveral. Can someone tell me where in Port Canaveral I can run and get some cans/bottles to take on board with me. I am guessing I will either have to walk or grab a taxi (I am hoping there is time before I have to board) Or does anyone know of a place in the Orlando Airport that sells bottles/cans of pepsi products? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you, Abneo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lois R Posted November 8, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Hi, there is a Publix Grocery Store in Cocoa Beach on A1A. You can take a cab there, have him wait while you pick up your soda and then go back to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SqueakyDust Posted November 9, 2006 #3 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Could you not buy a multi pack from your local supplier and pack it in your carry-on? It would make it heavy, but at least you'd know that you had it with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KINGBOBOFTHENORTH Posted November 9, 2006 #5 Share Posted November 9, 2006 The taxi idea is probably the best, but when you get off the plane and before you get on the tram/train/shuttle from tha Airside to the Terminal, do check the large newstand/gift shop to see if they have Dew as that would save the more expensive taxi ride later. If there is no Dew there and if you have a time gap before the Carnival shuttle takes you all out to PCN, you could take a taxi from the Orlando airport and tell the driver to take you to the nearest 7-Eleven. There are a couple of them less than 2 miles west along TOLL 528 (Beachline Expy), from the airport's North exit road. There are other convenience stores north of the airport along SR 436. You could probably get to a convenience store and back within 15-20 minutes. BobK/Orlando Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psblin99 Posted November 9, 2006 #6 Share Posted November 9, 2006 I agree with checking in the airport. If that does not work and you cannot find any at the port, hop in a cab and tell them to take you to the Racetrack gas station right outside the port. You wont see it from the shuttle buss because it is 1/8 of a mile past the port entrance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djheart007 Posted February 7, 2007 #7 Share Posted February 7, 2007 How much did Carnival charge for transfers p/p from Orlando Airport to Port Canavel. We are going in August and I still did not book transfers. Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
