Creator's Key Takeaways

If you don't have your medallion already for the Princess Cruise, you'll want to go to the blue lane so you can pick it up.

Bathroom's a lot smaller than I thought it would be.

So, we just arrived at the cruise terminal and we parked I got parking indoor garage parking covered at the um Port of Galveastston SMP garage parking garage.

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Sign up for the Port of Galveston SMP garage mailing list to snag promo discount codes for parking.
✓If you already have your medallion, you can go straight to the green line, which is empty.
✓If you don't want to haul your bags around, you can check them in at the Symphony dining room and they will deliver them to your room in the evening.
✓To avoid elevator crowds after boarding, try going one floor up or one floor down if you don't have heavy bags.
✓Make sure any packs of soda or drinks are unopened before going through security.
