Hello cruise experts!
We'll be going on our 2nd Disney Dream cruise later this month and have a question about dropping off the family first and when we return about picking them up later because last time we did it the little one had to wait in the heat for picking up the rental car line that she nearly passed out.
Here's our situation now and my plan. We now have a 4 month old with us but won't be taking a stroller with us as I'll be using the ErgoBaby carrier. Drop wife and (now) 4 year old off with our luggage at the cruise terminal. I'll take the 4 month old to return the rental car because wife isn't strong enough (long story) to hold 4 month old using the ErgoBaby.
Have them go through security and up the escalator and wait for me in the waiting area.
Question: Can we do this? If wife has the cruise documentation and I have nothing, will they let me into the terminal? Or would a photocopy of the documentation be sufficient?
Question: Is there a drop off area for private cars?
On our return, I was thinking of leaving wife, 4 year old and 4 month old in the terminal. I believe there was an area for sit down unless I"m really mistaken. I'll take the luggage and go get the rental car.
Question: Is there a pick up place where I can stop the car so I can quickly take the 4 month old from my wife so she doesn't have to hold her? Or is it like the airport where i can't stop the car and wife, baby and child need to be on standby looking for me and rush out?
Sorry for the long post and questions. My wife is getting a bit upset and me saying "don't worry, we'll figure it out" doesn't cut it with her. So here I am posting and hoping that someone can help me out.
Thanks so much in advance!
