Creator's Key Takeaways

It was a 4-minute walk once we got out there.

So, we got in line in the Haven at 8:11 and we were off the ship at 8:30.

Your cruise is whatever you want it to be. You can make it crazy busy or you can make it slow and chill.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the Haven priority disembarkation process for a quicker exit.
Tell your ride to pick you up on Convention Center Boulevard and Julia to avoid the terminal area.
Scan your key card right before getting off the ship.
