CruiseGus Posted September 10, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2022 Smoothest boarding ever to symphony. Walked right on to ship at 10:30, fastest ever. No passport to show since I uploaded it via scan. No vac card, just verified the 3 questions were yes, yes, no. Not even nearly the first cruisers on ship at 10:30. (We have one more planned from Miami in Nov, this time we planned to arrive at ~10am due to my wife's knee just being replaced. Next time I'll definately come earlier) Beautiful ship, friendly crew.

We went out of Miami last week (Friday traffic) and left our house in Fort Lauderdale at 10:30am and I was drinking a Red Stripe on the pool deck by 11:15am.

Please suggest to me the better route and I'll tell my driver to take that next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell them to take Port Boulevard by Bayside Marketplace and the Miami Arena so they go over the bridge instead of the tunnel.

Coming out of the tunnel can be a cluster..especially if drivers aren't familiar. I know to stay far right to get down to Terminal A, so usually I can avoid the mess as everyone for other terminals is trying to merge left. Never have that issue going over the bridge, but you have to be careful to not miss the turn to get over to the passenger terminals or it dumps you on the cargo side..then you'll end up staring at Oasis from the other side of the fence and have to backtrack Looking at the time stamp on your post you were stuck in the pick up mess still. It's gotten way better at Terminal A but there is about a 2 hour window where there's just so much traffic coming and going at Terminal A to get debarking passengers that you just sit and sit waiting to turn the final corner.

Bowen Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 So you didn't have to show your vax card? You just checked that you were vaxxed and that was that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just checked that you were vaxxed and that was that? Yup, only 3 health question now and they are Yes-No. Are you vaxed. Have you had your booster. Are you more than 26 weeks pregnant. (Not exact wording, but you get the meaning) No card asked for, did not even ask to see my passport. Dittyman8 and Bowen 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
