We're crusing the Carribbean with the Emerald Princess later this month.
Only problem we have at the moment is we dock at Fort Lauderdale at 7am and dont fly until 9pm that night from Miami. Does anyone know if there are tours available from Princess that will take care of our lugagge for the day and get us to Miami? Our any suggestions what to do?
Thanks in advance
my advice is to do this....as we didnt on our last day.....and our pre-arranged transfer got us to Orlando aiport for 11 am......and we didnt fly til 7pm......it was a very long day............
Or you could stay at a hotel in Fort Lauderdale for a day or two.

Just an idea :think
And miss the flight??!!
hamrag.............that,s naughty..............
I seem to remember when we did Princess charter as part of the deal they took us to bayside then onto a hotel for late lunch and a couple of hours hanging before heading on for the flight.
There's always another flight.
If that is the case look on your invoice, after docking time in Fort Lauderdale it should say Hospitality if so they will provide you with facilities either aboard ship or in a hotel until you leave for your flight.
If you have booked this as a package and it doesnt say this, get on to your agent and get them to look into it, Princess should provide it at no charge.
If however you have booked the flight separate from the cruise and are under your own steam, you are on your own I am afraid. Once the ship docks and you have disembarked thats the end of Princess' responsibility to you.
We booked with Virgin and no transfers were incuded. I have telephoned Princess in Southampton and as all their flights are out of Miami they assured me that something would be available for us.
Look on your list of Shore Excursions, there should be one you can do at the end of the cruise- Everglades Tour,Tropical garden , Tour of Ft Lauderdale etc, that will take up a few hours. They will drop you at MIA or FLL airports, depending on where your flight leaves from.
