GORDONCHICK Posted November 15, 2008 #2 Share Posted November 15, 2008 You might want to post your question over on the Gulf Departure Board. I've cruised out of Galveston three times, but we've always left our car at the hotel. And things have changed in Galveston. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted November 15, 2008 #3 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Iv parked at EZCruise quite often and its a good safe place and their shuttles are usually very prompt. Once we waited close to 15 minutes and folks were having hissy fits. Might not even have been that long, but most are expecting no delays. EZCruise is back open after Ike. Those of us (me included) who parked there either finally got our cars towed (after an extra week a per day fee started to kick in) or our insurance companys got them out.

Alamogirl Posted November 15, 2008 #4 Share Posted November 15, 2008 What does anyone know about parking in Galveston? We use EZCruise, if you book on-line you get a discount. Easy to find, shuttle to the ship and safe for your vehicle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be our first time to use public parking, as we've always left our car at the hotel. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted November 16, 2008 #7 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Yes, they take you AND your luggage to the port and drop you off somewhere in the vicinity of the porter. We had someone on a wheeled walker who was upset to have to walk from there to the front door which really isnt that far to me. You will be dropped off by the porter area, and then have to walk thru to where you go thru the xray machine to board the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ww tend to get to the terminal early but the shuttle is there is usually full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I speed up the whole process by dropping everyone off at the cruise terminal and then I park the car. If an EZ Cruise shuttle bus isn't immediately available and ready to go back, I just walk back to the cruise terminal. At the end of the cruise, I leave everyone at the Cruise Terminal with the luggage and I walk to EZ Cruise to pick up the car. The problem with the shuttle bus is that it waits until it is full of people and luggage before it goes anywhere. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
