Cruise Embarkation Day!

Group Transportation: We are arranging to have transportation from the hotel to the port for the group, with an estimated fee of $10-$15 per person. More details will be provided soon.

Important Documents: Make sure you keep your passport and/or birth certificate and state-issued photo ID on your person and not in your luggage. You'll need these documents to clear the port and board the ship.

At the Port: When you arrive at the port, you can drop off your checked bags with an attendant who will deliver them to your room later in the day. There will be a waiting period at the terminal, so dress comfortably.

Carry-On Items: We recommend carrying a small backpack with items you'll need immediately once you board the ship. It may take time to access your room, and there may be a delay in receiving your checked bags.

Emergency Check-In: Your first task will be to check in at your emergency rally point, which is specific to your room. The ship will not depart until all passengers have completed this check-in, so please don't delay.

Enjoy the Amenities: After check-in, all of the ship's amenities will be available. We suggest grabbing lunch at the buffet and changing into your swimwear (pack it in your backpack). It's time to start the party!

Bon Voyage! The ship will set sail at 4:00pm!

PORT: Fort Lauderdale, FL

Farewell to Paradise

As the saying goes, "You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here." Disembarkation begins at 6:00 AM, but you can still enjoy one last breakfast before departing. Typically, all guests must be off the ship by 10:00 AM or 11:00 AM. If you are flying home on Monday, January 20th, we recommend booking a flight departing at 12:00 noon or later to ensure a smooth and unhurried journey from the cruise port to the airport.

Travel Options:

There are various options for traveling from the port to the airport or another hotel if you plan to extend your stay in Florida.

Assistance:

If you need any help, please reach out to Elena.

We’ve loved having you celebrate our special day and this exciting trip with us!
