Cruise Port Shuttle in Rockledge, Florida
Rockledge is about 12 road miles from the Port Canaveral cruise terminals, roughly 20 minutes of free-flow driving via SR 528, SR 3 and SR 520. Boarding times are assigned by each cruise line and terminal lots open to embarking passengers no earlier than 10 AM; to reach the port at 10 AM, a Rockledge group would leave around 9:10 AM, which adds a 30-minute cushion for traffic and loading bags.

Is a group shuttle from Rockledge cheaper than parking at Port Canaveral?
For a 7-night sailing, a Rockledge group of 20 driving in 5 cars would spend $800 plus tax on port parking (the port charges $20 per car per day, counting both the arrival and return days, paid by card on entry) and put about 120 miles on those cars getting to the pier and back. One shuttle from Rockledge replaces that with a single booking and a curbside drop-off where cruise line porters take checked bags.
