Itinerary
Day 1
Private pickup from your Boston hotel and direct transfer to Flynn Cruiseport Boston. Times shown as an example for a mid-morning cruise check-in; your exact pickup time will be the time you enter when booking.
Pre-pickup: Confirm details & be ready in your hotel lobby
Please be ready in your hotel lobby at least 15 minutes before your scheduled pickup time. Confirm your mobile phone is on, luggage is tagged for the cruise, and you have travel documents (passport/cruise tickets) handy. Driver will display a nameplate with the lead passenger name.
Tips from local experts:
- Accessibility: Most central Boston hotels (e.g., The Westin Copley Place) have elevators and level lobbies — request a lower-floor room if stairs are a concern.
- Practical: Place a bright ribbon or luggage tag on each bag to speed identification; keep medications and travel documents in a small carry-on that stays with you.
- Timing: If you need assistance from hotel bell staff, arrange it about 20–30 minutes before pickup so luggage is at the lobby when the driver arrives.
Driver meets you & loads luggage (nameplate greeting)
Driver arrives at the hotel entrance/lobby at the scheduled pickup time, greets you with a printed nameplate, helps load luggage into the vehicle and confirms your cruise terminal and number of bags before departure.
Tips from local experts:
- Accessibility: Vehicles used are stroller/pram friendly; if you require extra step assistance, inform the operator ahead of time so the driver can prepare.
- Communication: Confirm cruise ship name and terminal number with the driver during greeting — this ensures the driver goes to the correct Flynn Cruiseport terminal (there are multiple drop-off zones).
- Comfort: Ask the driver to set a slower AC/heat level and lower radio volume if you prefer a gentler ride.
Private transfer: Drive from Boston hotel to Flynn Cruiseport Boston
Direct private transfer in an air-conditioned vehicle. Typical driving time from Back Bay/Copley area to Flynn Cruiseport Boston (South Boston) is about 35 minutes depending on traffic. Driver will aim to get you to the correct cruise terminal with time to spare for check-in.
Tips from local experts:
- Route note: In summer, punctuality matters — ask the driver to take Mass. Pike/Seaport route to avoid local construction or event-related delays when possible.
- Comfort & safety: If you feel unsteady stepping in/out of the vehicle, ask the driver to position the vehicle close to the curb and to provide the door assist.
- Documents: Keep your cruise boarding pass and passport ready during the drive — your check-in queue may begin immediately on arrival.
Arrival & luggage assistance at Flynn Cruiseport Boston
Driver will drop you at the designated cruise terminal entrance, assist with luggage unloading, and confirm any final instructions. Allow time to check in with the cruise line and pass through terminal security or luggage drop-off.
Tips from local experts:
- Accessibility: Flynn Cruiseport has terminal staff and curbside drop-off; however the operator notes 'not wheelchair accessible' for this transfer — if you require wheelchair assistance, pre-arrange with the cruise line and notify the transfer provider.
- Practical: There are often separate lines for bags-to-ship drop-off — hand larger labeled bags to porters if offered and keep a small bag with essentials for onboard.
- Buffer time: Summer sailings can have busy morning check-ins; plan on an extra 20–45 minutes for terminal processing even after arriving early.
Follow-up: Final confirmation and driver departure
Driver confirms everything is set with you at the terminal entrance before departing. Collect any receipt or driver contact information if needed for after-trip questions.
Tips from local experts:
- Receipt & contact: Ask your driver for a receipt or business card in case you need to follow up (useful if luggage is delayed or misdirected).
- Tipping: If satisfied, a tip for luggage assistance is customary — keep small bills handy in a labeled envelope to make this easier.
- Lost items: If you leave anything in the vehicle, contact the transfer company immediately using the contact details on your booking voucher.
