Wilmsta Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 Hi all, seeking advice! We're looking at doing a RC organsied post cruise excursion when we dock at Fort Lauderdale (to avoid carting our suitcases around for half the day!) however in the t&c's it states the following: This tour is available to guests with flights departing from Fort Lauderdale airport at 2:30pm or later for domestic flights and 3:30pm or later for international flights. We are flying back to the UK at 3:10 - so technically before the earliest time for an international flight, however we are flying Delta via ATL so i'm thinking that the first leg is essentially a domestic flight and the tour would therefore be ok? Anyone have any experience of this at all - or failing that can make a suggestion or two as to what to do in Fort Lauderdale whilst carrying luggage Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 The best alternative would be to rent a car. That way your car trunk can hold your luggage. tiny260 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiny260 Posted February 4, 2019 Report Share Posted February 4, 2019 I would just speak with the excursion people once you get on board and find out how structured they are on those times. Pinging @tonyfsu21 about what to do in FLL, you can go to the airport and check your luggage in and get your boarding pass and then leave for a short while.

I think that's a great idea. Little risk of the excursion selling out IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see cruisers on the weekends carting luggage at the beach every weekend. There’s options North and South of Las Olas to grab a bite to eat and when your ready to get to the airport just call an Uber. Enjoy Wilmsta 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyB Posted March 5, 2019 Report Share Posted March 5, 2019 We have twice left from FLL and rented a car (from the airport) after the cruise and spent the day roaming around in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea. A quaint little area with shops/restaurants and a public beach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
