Hi all,
My family is hoping to catch the last available cabin on Norweigan Wind for July10. We already booked our flight from Honolulu to Hong Kong before we went and looked into a cruise. As it turn out, the boat will dock at 7:00am and our flight will leave at 11:10am. We called the travel agent and was told the flight cannot be changed. I found out the pier and the airport is about 20 minutes away. None of the cruise agent can give me a straight answer weather it is possible to disembake in time to catch the flight or not. Did anyone that have been on the cruise recalled how long it take for them to disembarked the boat from the time they docked?
I really could used some help from experience cruisers here, this is our first cruise and we will put up a lot of money for it, any advise would be appreciated. We are season travellers that are used to go between backpacking and low budget self guided tour. This is new venture for us and we don't know what to expect.
Thanks

Remember NCL does freestyle disembarking, so maybe you won't have as much competition to get off quickly.

Appollo --

We'll keep our fingers cross for you & your family.

The cruise line doesn't have much control over diembarkation; usually the hold up is US Customs. That shouldn't be a problem on your Wind voyage. If the ship docks on time 7-8 am make sure you & your family are poised to be one of the 1st off the ship. If you can manage to keep your luggage w/ you to get off the ship that might speed your trip. Run don't walk to the nearest cab.

Good luck.
