Taking a cruise vacation can be a surprisingly confusing, complicated, and stressful affair. You’ll be far away from home meaning that you have to arrange for accommodations. If you’re flying to a far off destination then you need to figure out how you’ll get from place to place while you’re there. When you’re taking a cruise the need to organize everything around the ship can quickly start to seem overwhelming. Especially if it’s your first cruise.
The essential thing you need to realize about cruise ships is that they carry thousands of people. The ship will not wait for one person, or even a group of people if they’re running late. If you check the fine print on the contract you agreed to when you purchased your tickets you will find that the cruise line isn’t responsible for getting you onto the ship, and doesn’t have to refund you anything if you fail to show up in time. Even if the circumstances are beyond your control you will be lucky to get even a partial credit towards another cruise, and you are entirely on your own for the cost of travel to the port.
While things like flight delays and traffic jams are outside of your control you can control whether or not this will affect your ability to cruise. The solution is to simply plan to arrive a day early so that however serious the delay is you still have plenty of time to make it to the ship for your cruise. This does create the need for a place to sleep overnight, and transportation to the hotel, to the port, and back to the airport or your vehicle when you’re done cruising though.
Go Port Snooze and Cruise Hotel Packages
A Snooze and Cruise Package from Go Port solves all those needs.
We’ve partnered with Port Canaveral area hotels to take care of everything cruisers need when ashore. A Fly Snooze and Cruise Package covers transportation from the airport to the hotel, from the hotel to Port Canaveral, and back to the airport once your cruise returns. A Snooze Park and Cruise package takes care of accommodations and parking for the duration of your cruise for cruisers that are arriving in the Port Canaveral area via car. Everything and everyone in your party is included for one low price.
This is in contrast to what other packages that offer limited amenities at the hotel, or only cover a couple of people in your group. With a Go Port package there is no nickeling and diming guests for amenities that are usually complimentary at the hotel, like breakfast, nor are there any additional fees for having more than two people in your group. A Go Port package includes everything for everyone.
And it offers a range of Port Canaveral hotels that suit every taste and budget to choose from.
The Port Canaveral Area
Port Canaveral is on the Eastern Coast of Florida about halfway down the length of the state. It is also nearly in the center of Florida’s Space Coast, and as the Canaveral part of the name might suggest it is close to the launch facilities at the Kennedy Space Center and Canaveral Air Force Station. The Kennedy Space Center Visitors Complex is only about 20 minutes north of the port in the town of Titusville. The town is also home to the Dixie Crossroads Seafood Restaurant, which traditionally has been a favorite place for astronauts to have a hearty meal before heading into space.
Less than an hour’s drive away to the west is Orlando, the theme parks, and all the entertainment options a metropolis of millions and international destination can offer. The sheer number of flights going into and out of Orlando International Airport it is here that most cruisers will arrive. We also serve the other two major airports in the region Sanford-Orlando (SFB) and Orlando Melbourne International Airport (MLB) with the same great service. Most of our Orlando partner hotels are near the main airport, so most cruisers will be able to get off of their flight and into a pool shortly after arrival.
Ten minutes away from, and directly south of Port Canaveral is Cocoa Beach. The city of Cocoa Beach is the surfing capital of the Atlantic and the du jour place for cruisers who want to watch the sun rise over the ocean the day they embark. The surf and seafood are the main attractions of any cruise vacation, and cruisers won’t find a lack of it in Cocoa Beach. Those who can’t wait to get started should see about reserving a room at one of our beachfront partners.
