When Can You Board Liberty of the Seas?

Royal Caribbean gives you an arrival time slot picked in the Royal App and printed on your mobile boarding pass. Arrive at your assigned boarding time — not earlier. You must be checked in and aboard no later than 90 minutes before port operations close.

The arrival time on your own boarding pass is the one that governs your sailing.

Liberty of the Seas cruise parking at Terminal 18

Where you park

Port Everglades charges $20 a day at every garage and lot, and $25 a day for an oversized vehicle. Terminal 18 has no garage of its own. Use the port's Parking Lot C, the 600-space surface lot adjacent to the terminal, or Lot B nearby — Lot B is the port's smallest and the most likely to be full on a busy morning. Note that the Palm Parking Garage serves Terminals 19 through 29, not 18, and that the airport has its own separate Palm Garage about two miles away, so navigate to the port's address rather than the garage name.

Drop-off

Terminal 18 is Royal Caribbean's main terminal at Port Everglades. Follow green Palm signs from any port entrance. Drop off luggage curbside with porters (tip $2-3 per bag), then drop off passengers before parking. The distance from the drop-off curb to the terminal door is not published. If it matters for you, ask your cruise line before you travel.
