How we check prices

Cruise parking prices change with the season and with how full a lot is. A guide that copied prices once and never looked again would send you to the wrong lot. Here is what we do instead.

Where prices come from

• Port-run parking: the port authority's own published rates.
• Private lots and garages: the rate on the lot's own website or booking page for a standard car.
• Hotels: the hotel's published shuttle and park-and-cruise terms.
• Shuttles from the airport: the operator's published fares.

We list a 7-day price because most cruises from these ports run 4 to 8 nights, and it makes lots easy to compare. Where a lot only publishes a daily rate, we show that instead and leave the 7-day column blank rather than guess.

What we leave out

Anything we could not confirm from a primary source. If a lot does not publish its price, we say so and tell you to call. Ratings come from Google and are shown as-is.

How often we recheck

Every port page shows the month we last checked it. We recheck parking before each peak season and whenever a lot or the port announces a change. If you spot a price that has changed, tell us and we will fix it.
