Should You Fly or Drive to Your Cruise Port?

from Professor Melissa's Cruise Pod · host Professor Melissa

Is flying to your cruise port still worth it, or is driving starting to make more sense? In this video, we discuss the real cruise travel decision many cruisers are facing right now: should you fly or drive to your cruise port? After a last-minute travel mistake turned into a 14-hour road trip home from Port Canaveral, the question became more practical than expected. We talk through the cost, time, stress, baggage limits, airport delays, PTO math, sickness concerns, rental cars, parking, and what other cruisers had to say about Team Fly versus Team Drive. Whether you cruise from Port Canaveral, Galveston, Miami, Norfolk, New York, or Boston, this conversation can help you think through the full travel picture before your next sailing. The answer is not the same for everyone, but the cruise math matters.
