    of the World Cup in Vancouver this June hotel rates are EXPENSIVE. We decided to fly in the day of embarkation arriving at 1052a and booked Disney Cruise Ground transportation. How late does the ground transportation run for a 4p ship departure?

    Hi, Conrad!

    Welcome to Disney Cruise Line! I am excited to hear you are sailing to Alaska out of Vancouver. This was definitely one of my family's favorite cruises. When packing, you will need a bit of everything since the weather can be unpredictable, so plan on layers so you can alter your wardrobe day by day, or even hour by hour!

    Per the website, the latest arrival into the Vancouver airport is listed as 11:45 am. With your planned arrival at 10:52am, you are within that arrival window! After completing the customs process, you may retrieve your bags and once you exit the luggage area, look for a Disney representative who will direct you to your motorcoach or bus that will drop you off at the cruise terminal. Travel time to the port is about 45 minutes. 

    Once you have finalized your flights, call Disney Cruise Line to arrange for your ground transfers. Space is limited so lock in your reservation for your family. You may also book your transfer back to the airport at the back end of your cruise. When calling, have all of your flight information available. 

    During your cruise, you will be stopping at some amazing ports, so make sure to check out the Port Adventures. I suggest booking them prior to your cruise as some of the more popular excursions may fill up. Once onboard, stop by the Port Adventures Desk if you have any questions. 

    Wishing you and your family a memorable voyage with Disney Cruise Line as you explore Alaska!

Hi, I'm Cathy from Cleveland. I love to travel, especially in the winter to escape the cold of Ohio!
