Port Canaveral Arrival Times and Parking

Effective Aug. 2, 2011, the cruise terminal and parking facility at Port Canaveral, Fla., will open at 11 a.m. for embarking Guests.

Select a port arrival time by going to "My Online Check-In" on disneycruise.com. You should arrive as close to your scheduled time as possible in order to avoid a wait. Guests who do not pre-select an arrival time online may be delayed entry until those with assigned times are accommodated.

If your traveling party has chosen two different times, please advise them to arrive at the later time so the group can board together.

If you were previously scheduled to arrive earlier, you will automatically be placed in the 11 a.m. – 11:30 a.m. time slot.
