Creator's Key Takeaways

Royal Caribbean has it down to a science. As soon as you are in the terminal, they are just walking you through security, through check-in.

We did pay $26 a day for this parking spot on a six night cruise.

This is a beautiful space. You have a separate entrance for suite and pinnacle guest.

If you're flying, do not chance a delay in your flight because that cruise ship will leave without you.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Reserve parking in advance at portofgalveston.com for the north lot to be close to the terminal.
Tag your luggage with provided tags before arriving at the port for quicker drop-off.
Keep passports, medicine, swimsuits, and drinks in your carry-on bag, not in checked luggage.
Complete online check-in beforehand to speed up the boarding process.
