Pan Pacific Parking/Luggage Drop

[Princess and Queen]

For those of you that have stayed at the Pan Pacific with a rental car before a cruise, how tough was it to find a place unload luggage? Is there a space to unload luggage without paying for parking? We are returning a rental car in Vancouver, and trying to figure out the easiest way. Thank you.

Yes, you can unload luggage without paying for parking. There is a large area with porters that move you quickly in and out.

@Princess and Queen: To clarify... which hotel are you staying at? Who are you renting your car from?

For non-Panny guests..... just drive into the cruise terminal level. Follow traffic control and berth your vehicle when it's clear to unload your baggage. They drive your car out to return the vehicle.

If you are returning National, Enterprise, and Alamo vehicles at the cruise terminal lot. Drop your vehicle off and take the elevator up to the cruise ship level to drop off your luggage.

For those staying at the Pan Pacific with a rental car..... call ahead to confirm their daily parking rates..... it may be $30 a day.

We are staying at the Pan Pacific. We are returning the car to Avis on Hornby. We did a trip before coming to Vancouver, so we also have car seats. I was looking for the easiest and cheapest way to handle luggage, carseats, and car return.

I recommend...

• return the rental car to Avis the Sunday before they close at 6pm solo (if you don't need the car the night before). Are these Avis car seats? If so return at the same time. Return to Pan Pacific if the Avis shuttle is operating. If you need the car the night before, return car to Avis solo in the morning.
• the next morning.... have luggage transferred to ship from the hotel. Otherwise drop luggage yourself at 10am by taking elevator to the cruise ship level.
• bring spouse and kids to the cruise ship at the PAT time.
