How to read this page
Each row gives the cheapest public way to the port for one traveler, by train, coach, bus or a regulated taxi, at the operator's own fare. Where the airport page has a pre-booked transfer to the port, the row adds it for two, the usual cruise party, at the price that page prints, read from the transfer company's own page; where it is our partner it is marked Partner, as on the airport page, and a booking through it may earn us a commission at no cost to you. Where the transfer works out cheaper for a group, the row says from how many. The times are rounded so they scan; each port's page has them to the minute and prices every way there for your whole party.
