Port Everglades
Port Everglades follows U.S. Coast Guard regulations for operating the Port during storm conditions. This may affect cruise, cargo or petroleum operations.
When a storm is approaching, the Coast Guard will determine when Port operations will stop. Landside operations, including the distribution of gasoline, may still be open while dockside operations have been halted, but access into the Port may be limited to essential operations.
For questions about Port operations, call 954-523-3404. Recorded information will be updated on a regular basis throughout the storm. Or, visit www.broward.org/port for "Breaking News."
CRUISE OPERATIONS
- Cruise passengers should call their cruise line for updated information regarding cruise ship departures.
- If you are flying into Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport for your cruise, it is important that you also call your airline for information on flight arrivals and departures before, during and after the storm. Operations may be interrupted. Click here for a list of airlines.
