Embarkation AND disembarkation were the most poorly organized, chaotic evolutions we've ever experienced in many years of cruising. Will NEVER cruise through Boston again! This old port is not set up to handle big ship passenger numbers. The port workers were polite and kind, and this debacle was not their fault. We were forced to stand for 2.5 hours in the August heat waiting to get into the terminal for embarkation processing. Unbelievably, after debarking, we had another 2 hours of standing in the heat waiting for our prepaid bus transportation to the airport. Both the cruise port and Holland America Line desperately need to get their act together to provide sheltered seating for waiting passengers, particularly those who are elderly and physically impaired. Too bad I can't give less than one star: it rates MINUS stars.

Structure is old and dirty watch your step before you get into the check in area. People where nice and friendly inside and outside. Inside the terminal it looks worn so don't expect anything fancy.

Easy access wheel chair assessable clean wait under roof out of weather. Quick efficient

Nice terminal with helpful staff but did not like how they crammed everyone into the small spaces waiting to board. Not sure if this is their usual method or due to pandemic although it would be the opposite of what you'd want to do during times of any high community spread.

There's only 1 parking lot, so if they said 25 then that's the price. If you can, have a friend drop you off or take a taxi/uber.

Are there wheelchairs at the unloading area for handicapped persons going on the Norwegian Dawn crusie?

Jeanna Sellers | Sep 6, 2018
DiAnna Hunt | Sep 6, 2019

To get shipboard wheelchair assistance you either make arrangements with the cruise planner when initially booking or before departure date.... Or as you arrive, indicate to port personnel you require wheelchair assistance. I have traveled with both NCL and Royal Caribbean, out of 3 different Eastern seaports, for all 3 the arrangements were made before with the cruise planner.

Keith Ballweg | Sep 6, 2018

There is,a "cell phone" parking lot you can wait at. When they know what time they will disembark they can call you. Of course the 1. Have to have a cell fon & 2. Know you are waiting in the lot for their call. Also, if you have their cell number you can call them. In any case everybody is off the ship by 10:30. And those are the stragglers.

Parking at the terminal is $25 a day. Parking at several of the hotels in the area is usually about $17 a day. If flying back, you are better off taking a taxi. Also , as a bonus, the taxi can drop you directly in front of the terminal.
