Creator's Key Takeaways

We've sailed out of the port numerous times, which has given us a good understanding of what passengers can expect when arriving for embarkation.

We've approached the port from all three different directions over the years and found that it really doesn't matter which entrance you end up using, as long as you follow the plentiful signage toward your ship's terminal.

We've had at least two cruises where the garage was full and we had to park in the adjacent open-air lot instead.

We've had that experience twice when cruising out of Port Everglades and in both cases our vehicle was still within walking distance.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Have your cruise documents available for security verification at checkpoints.
Focus on the terminal number on digital signs to avoid confusion.
Attach your luggage tags before heading toward the port area.
Make a note of your parking location as your ship might not return to the same terminal.
