Pickup Timing Made Simple

Don't miss your sailing or wait hours at the terminal. Here's exactly when to schedule your pickup.

Embarkation Day

We track your flight—if you land early or late, we adjust automatically

Example: Flight lands at 12:00 PM → Book pickup 12:45-1:00 PM → Arrive at pier by 1:45 PM → Check in by 2:00 PM for 5:00 PM departure ✓

Disembarkation Day

Returning from your cruise? Customs and luggage pickup takes time.

Typical disembarkation: 8:00-10:00 AM depending on your luggage tag color
