Just take a taxi and you will be there easily as long as it is not rush hour. Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c&d Posted January 22, 2007 #5 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Bay shuttle is a option. But they will drive around the airport for the one extra fare with out a care in the world that you are attempting to reach a cruise ship within a reasonable time frame. One family rode around the airport for a hr. looking for 1 person. They will definetly not leave the cruise port without as many people crammed in the van as possible. Sorta like being hurdled in like cattle. I have done it before and will not do it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylor1293 Posted January 22, 2007 #8 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Take a taxi. Like someone else mentioned, as long as it's not rush hour, it's a quick and easy drive! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkJedi Posted January 22, 2007 #9 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Take a cab, it's not very far. Maybe 15 minutes tops unless it's rush hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DqALEX Posted January 22, 2007 #10 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I would take a cab. its much faster than waiting for the transfer to fill up. Last min cruises are the best. I took one last summer on the Celebration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mxmom Posted January 22, 2007 Author #11 Share Posted January 22, 2007 Thanks for the advice. It looks like a taxi it is!!!! I just wasn't sure the distance and we will be arriving around 11:00 so it should not be rush hour I hope. Thanks so Much!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
