    If I've purchased a Disney transfer from the airport. How is my port arrival time assigned? We are traveling with family from another part of the country and would like to all arrive at the airport and port at the same time.

    Ahoy there, Victoria. Welcome to planDisney.

    I’m delighted to see you and your family will be sailing on a Disney cruise soon. Disney ground transportation from the airport to the cruise terminal is a convenient, stress-free way to start your Disney vacation! By booking Disney ground transportation, you’ll usually be assigned a fairly early port arrival time. Your actual arrival time via the shuttle will depend on various factors, such as traffic. Once your shuttle arrives to the cruise terminal, it's highly possible you'll be able to go through security and the check-in process right away. 

    If your other family members are also taking Disney ground transportation from the airport to the cruise terminal, they’ll likely be automatically assigned the same port arrival time as you. You can also link both your reservations together on the Disney Cruise Line website or on the Disney Cruise Line Navigator App. That way, you can ensure you’ll all sit together at dinner, as well as plan and reserve activities with each other. 

    As you continue to get ready for your upcoming Disney cruise, if you have more questions for us, please don’t hesitate to sail by planDisney again.

    Hope to SEA ya real soon,
    Kiki

Meet the Panelist: Kiki, California

Greetings! I have been fascinated by the magic of Disney since I was a little girl; now that I am a mother of two, I love watching my children experience Disney Parks through their own eyes. I am also surrounded by fellow Disney-loving nurse friends whom I enjoy quick adults-only Disneyland Resort escapes or Disney Cruise Line voyages with. Whether you are planning your once-in-a-lifetime family trip or a short adults-only getaway to the Happiest Place on Earth, I am here to help!
