Transfers / shuttles to new Brisbane cruise terminal

By Brisbane47 , July 19, 2022 in Australia & New Zealand Cruisers

Recommended Posts

Does anyone know if there are companies providing transfers from Brisbane (not the airport, we live in Brisbane) to the Brisbane International Cruise Terminal? I can't find anything on the Princess website so assume that is not something they offer. I checked Con-X-ion, a shuttle company, and they don't seem to offer that route either. A taxi is the obvious solution but will be pricey. Anyone know of other options? Thanks.

I believe the only shuttles available from the new terminal are those operated by Princess and going to the airport. Depending where you live, it might work out more convenient and OK cost-wise compared with a taxi, if you park at the terminal. We paid $128.44 for undercover parking for seven days. It isn't inside a building, just under large frames that home solar panels. Open air parking is under $100. For us this was less than half the price of two lots of taxi fares.

Ring Princess. They are doing shuttles into Anne St, Brisbane for those doing B2B cruises, so it might be possible to book onto something.

A bit left field with a couple of ideas:

A river cat to Northshore and a cab from there.

A shuttle to the airport and a cab from there.

Suggest to a friend that they really need to get a close look at the cruise ship, and get them to drop you off.

We are staying a pre-cruise night in the Portside complex, and the cab fare from there seems reasonable enough to us.

It was about $38 from Northshore to the BICT by taxi and $34 in reverse.

I am sure Con X ion will provide a transfer service, as the did for both Fisherman's Island and for Portside.

Thanks. We can't park at the terminal as the cruise finishes in Sydney, so we fly home. Good to know this info for any future cruises.

I don't really want to ring Princess, bearing in mind my previous calls. Was left feeling really annoyed. Thanks for your thoughts. A CityCat to Northshore or even Brett's Wharf, isn't a bad idea, if they are running. About half the ferry terminals and routes still aren't in operation, after the February floods.

Good to know, thanks. I did wonder if that narrow road gets choked with traffic when a ship is in.

I'm not sure at all, as I tried a dummy booking yesterday and their website wouldn't accept it. Also tried contacting them to ask if they are doing transfers to BICT and got no reply.

The road to the terminal doesn't get choked with traffic, although there is a steady stream of traffic - not enough to slow it down though.

It appears that Andrews Airport Parking is offering 'cruise' parking that presumably includes a transfer to the cruise terminal. It could be worth checking out.

19th August?

I believe the only citycat terminal east of Riverside that is not running is Sydney Street.

Hi, I'm not sure if this is any help, but when the terminal first opened I put in the address as destination (1 Cruise Terminal Drive etc) and it wouldn't accept it. However if I put in "Brisbane International Cruise Terminal", it accepts it (for ride from Brisbane Airport). Timings of their runs weren't ideal for us so we will get a taxi anyway 🙂

Have the same problem with transport to the Brisbane Terminal. Good news, Andrews Parking Nundah are offering a shuttle to the Cruise Terminal and the booking may be done online. The options are Cruise in/out Brisbane, Cruise out Fly in, and Fly in Cruise out. For a 2 week car stay, drop off at the Cruise terminal and pick up at Bne Airport, cost $180.  Apart from the cost, only other disadvantage is that you cannot nominate the time you would like the Ship shuttle. Andrews will advise the shuttle times 48 hrs from sail date.

Portside Parking also operate shuttle buses to the cruise terminal and to the airport so would suit someone who has a trip that requires a combo (cruise terminal + airport). Compare prices. Portside have continuous shuttles running to the cruise terminal on days a ship is in port.

Reading their site a few days ago to see what was in the wind for their new facility. Turns out nothing.

They have also announced they are no longer doing airport shuttles, due to the expense of operating long hours, 7 days.

OK. So Portside Parking isn't an option if a person's trip requires a shuttle to or from the airport. Maybe their new facility wouldn't be economic until there are more cruise ships operating out of the new Brisbane terminal and even then they will have to compete with Wilsons who are operating at the terminal.

A pity that covid destroyed their whole business model, so it looks like back to basics from their Hamilton facility for quite some time into the future. The new facility is still up for sale, and quite possible they still have money tied up in the property they can't afford to develop. A shame all round.

Thanks for the tip on Andrews Airport Parking. As mentioned above, they do cruise/airport/parking combinations, such as cruising one way and flying home. They have the cruise details on their website so you can pick your ship and embarkation date (or arrival date). There is the choice of undercover or outdoor parking. This is good to know but we may still get a cab, will have to check costs.

Is anyone aware of any local motels that offer a shuttle to the new Brisbane cruise terminal?

I will also phone Andrews Parking for a quote for my next fly-out/cruise-back Coral Princess as they have incorrect dates on their website so can't get an online quote.

I am aware that at least some of the Hamilton hotels that offered a free shuttle to Portside are going to continue this with the new terminal. I expect it might be a little bit more restricted due to the extra time it will take.

Airolodge was one, and I can't recall the other one I read. They are also a good option for car storage, so you can park, stay the night, get a shuttle to the terminal and leave your car parked there for a fee. Their current details on their site:

***FREE TRANSFER TO CRUISE TERMINAL (CONDITIONS APPLY)***

UNDER COVER CAR STORAGE $7.00 per day. MUST BE PREBOOKED

Con-x-ion does have transfers available, $25 for 2 people Brisbane domestic airport to BICT,  $45 for 2 people from  BICT to Queen St mall.

Use Andrews Parking or similar for your car. They will drop you to the port. On arrival back in Brisbane they will pick you up from the Airport.

Cruising has been one of my many passions since my early 20's and I have just come back from my 26th cruise, I like to think that I know a thing or two on the topic.

Caribbean cruise line reroutes ships, cancels stop at island port due to violence, turmoil

• Published: Apr. 25, 2024, 12:11 p.m.

Royal Caribbean International has canceled stops at its private beach in Haiti through September as a result of the violence plaguing the island nation, a private fan blog, citing messages to travelers, reports. AP

• Robert Higgs, cleveland.com

MIAMI – Royal Caribbean has cancelled stops at its private port of Labadee through the summer because of simmering violence in Haiti.

In March, the cruise line canceled stops at the private beach area through May, but this week Royal Caribbean reworked cruise schedules through the summer and into September, a post on the Royal Caribbean Blog said.

“Guests booked on cruises in the summer and early fall are getting notifications from Royal Caribbean that their visits to Labadee have been canceled,” the blog said. “On Tuesday (April 23), cruisers began to share updates they received from Royal Caribbean that their itineraries have been updated to drop Labadee and replace it with another port or a sea day.”

Labadee is a beach area on a peninsula in northern Haiti near Cap-Haitien used exclusively by Royal Caribbean. The cruise line has its own security force at the site, which is walled off from the rest of the country.

The 260-acre site has been leased by Royal Caribbean since the 1980s. It is about a six-hour drive from Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, and thus far has not seen any incidents of violence, the blog said.

More than 2,500 people were killed or injured in gang violence from January to March across Haiti, a more than 50% increase from the same period last year, according to a report Friday by the United Nations Integrated Office in Haiti. The vast majority of violence is in Port-au-Prince .

Cap-Haitien, Haiti’s former capital, has been spared much of the violence and is going through a bit of a resurgence, The Associated Press said . Business owners, anxious parents and even historic state ceremonies have been relocating there, and that began even before gangs started attacking key government infrastructure in Port-au-Prince in late February.

Royal Caribbean International had no formal announcements of the changes posted to its website. Royal Caribbean Blog is an unofficial site for fans of the cruise line and is not affiliated with Royal Caribbean International.

But it cited chatter and messages from cruise ticket holders about changes to their itinerary that showed stops at Labadee were being canceled and replaced with either an extra day of cruising at sea or stops in alternate ports.

A notice from the cruise line, reposted on the blog, informed guests about the change in travel plans, without explicitly mentioning the violence.

“Due to the continuing situation in Haiti, we’ll now visit Grand Turk, Turks & Caicos, instead of Labadee, Haiti,” the notice reads. “We’re sorry for the change – your safety is our top priority. Nevertheless, we’re excited to visit a new port with you!”

Grand Turk is the capital island in the Turks and Caicos archipelago north of Haiti.

RoyalCaribbeanblog.com, a website that tracks the line, reported guests booked in the summer and early fall are receiving notification their visits to Labadee, Haiti have been canceled. Labadee is a private resort operated by Royal Caribbean.

The line had previously canceled visits to Labadee through the end of May. The stop was replaced with visits to other destinations or a day at sea.

The cancellations affect several Royal Caribbean ships, including Adventure of the Seas, Independence of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas, Freedom of the Seas, and Symphony of the Seas, the website reported.

Royal Caribbean announced in March it was suspending calls to the resort on the northern coast of Haiti after the U.S. State Department issued an alert advising people not to visit the country. Haiti is at a Level Four travel advisory, alongside countries such as Russia, Syria and Burkina Faso, due to issues with “kidnapping, crime, civil unrest and poor healthcare infrastructure,” U.S. officials said.

Haiti is located on the island of Hispaniola with the Dominican Republic sharing the island to the east. The Dominican Republic is under a level 2 advisory with visitors urged to exercise increased caution.

The private resort stop has since been replaced with another port or a day at sea, the royalcaribbeanblog.com reported. The cancellations affect ships such as Adventure of the Seas, Independence of the Seas, Liberty of the Seas, Freedom of the Seas and Symphony of the Seas.

The Royal Caribbean announced in March that it was suspending all calls to Labadee, according to cruiseindustrynews.com . The move came after the U.S. State Department announced a travel alert for people to not visit the country.

“The current security situation in Haiti is unpredictable and dangerous,” the U.S. State Department wrote in a press release in March. “We are aware that there are few or no commercial options to depart Haiti safely at this time. As they become available, we urge U.S. citizens to take advantage of them.”

Will I get seasick on a cruise? Here's what travelers should know.

Mackenzie Pollock had a feeling she’d get seasick on her first cruise .

The 29-year-old Oregon resident tends to get carsick, so when she felt nausea on a Caribbean sailing with Princess Cruises in February, it wasn’t a surprise. And she came prepared. 

Pollock talked to her doctor before the trip, who prescribed Scopolamine patches. She also stocked up on Bonine tablets after seeing videos about it online. “I’m a librarian,” she said. “I do copious amounts of research on everything.”

There were “days here and there” during the 20-day trip when she felt sick, like when they went in and out of Florida and sailed through a thunderstorm. But between the two medications and other coping strategies like sitting on her suite’s balcony, she was able to manage it and enjoy her time with family.

Getting seasick can put a damper on a cruise, but there are ways to keep it from ruining your trip.

Why do people get seasick?

Seasickness is a form of motion sickness. That happens when there is a difference between the information you get from your visual system, your inner ear and receptors in your muscles, according to Dr. Kathleen Cullen, a professor of biomedical engineering at Johns Hopkins University. In a cruise ship cabin, for instance, the surroundings might appear stable even while the vessel is moving.

“And this mismatch between what your visual system is experiencing and what your balance organs are telling your brain about how you're moving is sort of an alert signal to your brain that something is wrong,” said Cullen. “So, it's a sensory conflict that actually is the big problem.”

Motion sickness symptoms can include nausea, dizziness and vomiting. 

Some travelers are more vulnerable than others, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Those include kids between 2 and 12, and people who have a history of migraines, vertigo and vestibular disorders. “Pregnancy, menstruation, and taking hormone replacement therapy or oral contraceptives have also been identified as potential risk factors,” the health agency said on its website .

On the other hand, people older than 50 are less likely to develop it, and toddlers and infants are usually immune.

What is the worst cruise for seasickness?

While modern cruise ships have stabilizers that reduce their roll, some itineraries are more prone to choppy waters.

“If you're doing a transatlantic over to England , the North Atlantic can be pretty gnarly, especially in the winter,” said Rusty Pickett, a travel adviser and owner of Shellback Cruises. The Drake Passage, a feature of many Antarctica expedition sailings , is also notoriously treacherous.

Travelers can seek out calmer seas, though. ( Click here for USA TODAY’s guide to the best times to cruise by region.)

Where is the best cabin to avoid seasickness?

The bow of the ship tends to bounce up and down, said Pickett. “Lower in the ship, middle (and just aft of middle) minimizes the movement,” he added.

Booking a stateroom with a window so you can keep an eye on the horizon or getting fresh air – like Pollock did on her balcony – could also be helpful, Cullen said.

Short vs. long cruises: Which one is right for you? Here's how they compare.

How do I stop being seasick on a cruise?

Travelers can bring medications and other remedies with them. Prescription Scopolamine patches can help get passengers “over the hump,” Cullen said. There are also other over-the-counter medications like Dramamine.

Those can make users drowsy. Travelers should talk to their doctor about their options ahead of their cruise.

Ginger candies or ginger ale – made with real ginger – and acupressure wristbands may also be helpful.

After you board, Cullen recommends watching the horizon on the ship’s outer decks. “That's a pretty good way to keep yourself, initially, from getting motion sick if you're prone to it,” she said.

The CDC offers other suggestions , including lying down, closing your eyes and sleeping; limiting caffeinated and alcoholic drinks; eating small portions of food often; and not smoking.

What other options do passengers have?

Cruise ships generally have onboard medical staff that can treat a range of ailments, and Pickett said the vessels keep a supply of seasickness medication on hand.

During an Antarctica expedition I took with Aurora Expeditions in December, crew members also placed barf bags around the ship that passengers could grab if they felt sick while outside their rooms.

Pollock said feeling seasick didn’t put her off cruising, and she and her family plan to take another. “It was frustrating when it happened, but it didn't overshadow the trip at all.”
