Most cruise lines assign an arrival window during online check-in, and arriving inside that window is the best way to avoid the longest terminal lines. General boarding usually runs from late morning into the early afternoon, but the exact timing varies by ship, port, and sail date. Follow the check-in instructions your cruise line sends you — they always take priority over general guidance.
Where does Celebrity Eclipse depart from at Port Everglades?
The current schedule lists Terminal 25 (Celebrity Cruises). Confirm your terminal with the cruise line before traveling.
Drop-off: Terminal 25 is Celebrity's premium terminal, redesigned and rebranded with an expansion including a larger luggage area and interactive LED signage. Follow green Palm signs from any port entrance. Drop off luggage curbside with porters.
When should I board Celebrity Eclipse?
Celebrity online check-in typically opens about 45 days before sailing in the Celebrity app, and you pick an arrival time as part of completing it. Earlier arrival times typically go first, so check in as soon as it opens if you want to board early.
Windows and opening dates vary by ship, homeport, and loyalty tier, so always follow your cruise line's instructions for your specific sailing.

Official Terminal
Terminal 25 (Celebrity Cruises)
Drop-off: Terminal 25 is Celebrity's premium terminal, redesigned and rebranded with an expansion including a larger luggage area and interactive LED signage. Follow green Palm signs from any port entrance. Drop off luggage curbside with porters.
Parking: Park in Palm Garage — $20/day for cars, $25/day for oversized vehicles. The garage has 1,900+ spaces and serves Terminals 19, 21, 25, 26 and 29. Convenient walk to Terminal 25. Note: Port Everglades' Palm Garage is a different building from FLL airport's own Palm Garage about two miles away — navigate to the port address or your terminal number, not just "Palm Garage."
Check-in tips:
- Complete Celebrity's online check-in through the Celebrity Cruises app before arrival
- The Retreat guests (suite passengers) have access to an exclusive VIP lounge and private rooftop terrace
- Facial recognition technology speeds up the boarding process
- Captain's Club Elite members have priority check-in lanes
Getting to the Port
From Fort Lauderdale Airport (FLL)
FLL sits about 2 miles from Port Everglades — the closest major airport to any cruise port in the US. It's the only port in the nation located adjacent to an airport. The drive itself is 15-20 min, though traffic lights on the access roads make it feel longer than the distance suggests.
From Miami International Airport (MIA)
MIA is about 30-35 miles from Port Everglades. Cheaper flights sometimes make this worth considering, but factor in the longer transfer.
Driving & Parking at the Port
Port Everglades has two main parking garages: Heron (Northport, terminals 2 & 4) and Palm (Midport/Southport, terminals 19-29). Follow the color-coded signs from any port entrance.
Hotel Shuttle Services
Many hotels near the port offer cruise shuttle packages. Quality and timing vary — some are one-way only with fixed departure times.
Local Tip
Celebrity Eclipse sails from Terminal 25, Celebrity's premium redesigned facility with expanded luggage areas and interactive LED signage. Follow green Palm signs from any entrance to Palm Garage ($20/day). The Retreat guests with suites get access to an exclusive VIP lounge and private rooftop terrace. Captain's Club Elite members have priority check-in lanes. For a last-minute drugstore run, CVS or Walgreens on SE 17th Street is the go-to before entering the port.
