We highly recommend arriving to Florida the night prior to the cruise and staying in a hotel in the Ft. Lauderdale/Miami area. We offer a Pre-Night package which not only provides the comfort of arriving the day prior but also includes dinner and a presentation from a well-known speaker. More information will be provided in the coming months. If you cannot make it on the day prior to the cruise, we suggest you arrive at the ship no later than 1:00 PM. Please select a flight that allows plenty of time to de-plane, gather luggage, drive to the ship terminal, and check-in at the ship terminal. At the conclusion of the cruise, we suggest you select a flight that leaves no earlier than 11:30 am from Ft. Lauderdale International Airport and 12:30 pm from Miami International Airport. It is your responsibility to arrive at the ship in time for the departure and to secure your transportation at the end of your cruise.
