What time should I schedule my pick up at the
Cruise Terminal?
Disembarking a cruise liner is different than
deplaning. Please review the information below and
plan accordingly!
Disembarkation process usually takes about two hours
from dock in time. Once the ship has docked in must
be clear by the local authorities before you can
actually leave.
Remember, you aren't allowed to get off earlier than
the time designated by your luggage tags, but you
can get off later.
After the ship has been cleared by the authorities
every person coming out the cruise must pass
immigration and customs. Make sure you always listen
to the instructions regarding meeting points and
identification requirements.
For cruises disembarking in the U.S., you will have
to fill out a Customs Declaration form (one per
family), which you'll receive on the ship. The
standard allowance for a U.S. citizen is $800 per
traveler (kids count too) in duty-free goods. That
can include 1 carton of cigarettes or 100 cigars and
1 liter of alcohol if you are over 21. If you go
over the limits you may have to pay a 10% tax
