Port reference

Key West

Key West is a Florida Keys cruise destination with several docking facilities and an old-town visitor area. The city identifies Mallory Square Dock, privately owned Pier B and the Navy Mole as distinct facilities. They should not be treated as one passenger entrance. Confirm the ship's actual assignment before agreeing a meeting point or planning the final return on foot.

Coordinates identify the general port, not a passenger entrance. A dash means the value has not been independently verified.

A place labelled Port and Marine can be an administration office rather than the ship's passenger access. Likewise, the Historic Seaport and local excursion-boat departures are not interchangeable with an ocean-cruise berth. Keep the facility name with the ship's instructions throughout the visit. Where a particular arrival uses a controlled transfer, follow that call's arrangements rather than assuming every berth has the same public pedestrian approach.

Key West International Airport, code EYW, is the local air gateway. The airport identifies taxis outside baggage claim and separate collection areas for ride-app services. Choose the transport matching the actual airport exit and confirm the cruise destination with the driver. Flights into Miami or Fort Lauderdale arrive on the mainland and require a different onward journey through the Keys or by another connection.

No passenger railway from the airport to the cruise pier is established in the reviewed information. Allow time for baggage, the road connection and any ship access procedure. An airport taxi does not itself authorise joining a cruise at a port of call. If embarkation is planned here, use the specific cruise booking arrangements rather than treating every scheduled call as an open boarding opportunity.

Mallory Square and Duval Street provide old-town visiting possibilities. A sunset event does not automatically fit a ship that leaves earlier in the day, so plan around the real boarding time rather than an attraction's usual evening programme. The coordinate here refers generally to Key West, not to a gangway. Separate Celebrity Eclipse and Celebrity Reflection itineraries include January 2027 Key West visits, supporting the regular connection. Later itinerary updates can replace individual calls, so verify the actual voyage before reserving independent activities.
