Susie Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 The Royal Caribbean Terminal A garage looks large but with all of the large ships Royal has does it ever fill up? I don't want to plan to park there just to get told it's full and go look somewhere else. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 If it has, I've never heard of it Susie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susie Posted November 18, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 Thank you for the reply. I feel a little better now. It happened to us last month in New Jersey, the garage was full by noon. KristiZ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will direct you to another terminal for parking and provide a shuttle to Terminal A if it happens. MMcBride and Susie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MMcBride Posted November 27, 2022 Report Share Posted November 27, 2022 I have the same concern. We watch live port cams on YouTube and can see that the deck fills up. Same question...are there shuttles between the different garages in the port? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLTraveler Posted November 27, 2022 Report Share Posted November 27, 2022 Can confirm that it absolutely does. We arrived later than planned due to traffic/weather/general insanity last Sunday (apparently there was flash flooding that caused multiple lanes in the port to be closed last minute, causing utter chaos). There was a sign that said the garage was full, but the attendant told us there were 12 spaces left. When we drove up, the car in front of us took the last legitimate space. Two other cars parallel parked against a random wall. I was too nervous to do that and was anxious that we'd miss the boat if we moved garages, so I asked the attendant where to go and he directed me to squeeze into a little yellow marked-off non-space between two cars. It was a source of semi-anxiety all week as I wasn't 100% sure my car was fine where it was. Susie and KristiZ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will be driving from Orlando to Miami port this coming Sunday for Oasis OTSs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Google said it was a 3 hour drive. We pulled into the parking garage at 2:15 and found the not-really-legit parking space at 2:30. Give yourself plenty of extra time, and have so much fun on the cruise!! I miss the Oasis already! Susie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are planing to leave at 8 am from the hotel at Universal Orlando but now I worry. I also got the 1 p.m. check in time. Hopefully we do not get the bad traffic or bad weather that day.

Yes on that Thanksgiving sailing it did fill up, they redirected to parking a terminal J (i belive) and provided shuttle busses back to A. Talked with a number of folks that had to do this.
