We did the Getaway on 15 Dec and nothing has change but the port now provides a secure parking area up on the dock toward Poydras Street there are signs saying parking and arrow.
We arrived in the morning on the Getaway Transatlantic repositioning cruise. To correct you, in Miami it was not a customs check. It was an immigration check, where ALL passengers had to disembark the ship with their I’d and passport. Then had to wait. Several hours before being able to board. Yes, you were going to need lots of supplies , we were out of so many staples. Hope you enjoyed your cruise.
Thank you very much for this detailed video. We are going to the cruise right now and watching your video. It is helpful for us because we are the first-time cruisers. God bless you’all
Sailed on The Getaway on the Baltic Sea Cruise in July, from Copenhagen. Everything on the ship functioned and worked perfectly, ran on time. NCL 👍👍👍 The airlines, not so much. An extra day in the air to get home. Next time...sailing out of NOLA👍👍👍 Thanks for showing😎😎😎. (Did the airport a week ago, 1 level? Used to have two?? Man, seems like a step backwards to me.)
good to hear they're wrapping up road work, sad news is sailing getaway march 1st! maybe they'll have finished parts by then. didn't realize fulton garage so close, have always taken shuttle.
Most people think way to Julia St is around end of convention center to Henderson St and then over They acturlly put you over coming out Julia st to unload bags. That is way we went in Feb 2019 for Breakaway. You can watch this video will show both terminals coming from Up River. ua-cam.com/video/E_aEI8IUJqE/v-deo.html
Enjoyed your video!….do they have a shuffle from Fulton park garage to the port and once you get finished with the cruise do they have a shuffle to take you back?…thanks
Thanks - great video. Nice info on the streets (Peter & Julia) where to drop off the baggage. Thanks for pointing out the Haven lounge. Do you know if there was a sign for the Haven lounge area or someone directing?
We were called right at noon. Group 2. Was faster in Feb Breakaway was 11:30 but they had been working NOLA for several months. The group getting off were from EU and it took them for ever to clear the ship. was the biggest issue.
Incredibly helpful for those of us with travel anxiety! Thanks!

Best details and arrival view for the Getaway. So much back and forth camera movement makes you dizzy though.
Thank you. Was really curious about the embarkation process in NOLA. A little more sure about what to expect now.

Best video I have seen so far !
I like videos like this one. Helpful info for folks who may not be familiar with the port.

Going Getaway and one bag per person easier to walk.

Thanks for the video. Great information for those of us planning to walk to the cruise terminal.
Thank You... Now I'm REALLY looking forward to a cruise from N'Awlins.
COVID-19 Be Gone !!!!
Enjoyed your video!….do they have a shuffle from Fulton park garage to the port and once you get finished with the cruise do they have a shuffle to take you back?…thanks
Yes they do. But its only three blocks. Easy walk if you have one bag and back pack.
Cannot tell you how much we are looking forward to Dec 5. PS i run New Orleans Norwegian Cruise Line Cruisers FB group.
Thanks - great video. Nice info on the streets (Peter & Julia) where to drop off the baggage. Thanks for pointing out the Haven lounge. Do you know if there was a sign for the Haven lounge area or someone directing?
No signs, several people directing traffic.
Ternimal ? I thought was a terminal - confused!
Getaway NOLA uses Julia St Terminal.
Thank you so much that was great! What time was your group actually called to board?
We were called right at noon. Group 2. Was faster in Feb Breakaway was 11:30 but they had been working NOLA for several months. The group getting off were from EU and it took them for ever to clear the ship. was the biggest issue.
Have a good time
