Silversea Cruises terminals at Port Everglades (Fort Lauderdale) are assigned per sailing, and we have not found an official Silversea Cruises or port statement naming one fixed terminal. Check the terminal printed on your Silversea Cruises boarding documents about 48 hours before sailing, compare it with the port's official terminal list, and share it with the carrier so the driver drops your group and luggage at the correct pier.
Arrive at Port Everglades (Fort Lauderdale) 2 to 3 hours before scheduled departure. This gives time for luggage drop-off, security screening, terminal check-in and boarding your assigned group. Groups larger than 20 passengers should add another 30 minutes for staggered check-in. If you arrive after the boarding cutoff, the ship will sail without you.
Yes. Wedding groups, corporate incentive groups, church groups and multi-family reunions sailing on Silversea Cruises can travel together on a 56-passenger motorcoach, and larger groups use multiple coaches with a coordinated arrival plan.
