Cruise Port Transfers · Columbus
Columbus has no cruise port of its own, but travellers regularly head out to sail from Cleveland on Lake Erie, from Cape Liberty or Baltimore on the Atlantic, or from Florida and the Gulf. We cover those legs, including the airport run for cruise-bound flyers and long drives to the nearest ports.
Business district
Our chauffeurs work daily around downtown Columbus and Easton, with regular runs to the Greater Columbus Convention Center, Ohio State University, the Short North.
Ohio State game days close the Lane Avenue and Olentangy corridors; airport runs on those Saturdays are timed an hour earlier as standard.
Corporate travel in ColumbusGreat Lakes cruises call at Cleveland's downtown port, around two hours north of Columbus by I-71. Passengers often drive up the day before sailing and stay at a lakefront hotel. A chauffeur lets them sleep on the way and delivers them to the terminal with bags unloaded.
Baltimore's cruise terminal is about six hours east and Cape Liberty in New Jersey roughly nine. Most travellers prefer to fly. For those who drive, we suggest a hotel stop in Pennsylvania and plan the fare accordingly.
Port Canaveral, Miami and Galveston are an easy flight from CMH. We collect you from home in Dublin, Westerville or Grove City and take you to the terminal, then meet you on return with your cruise luggage in hand.
River cruises on the Ohio and Mississippi sometimes begin in Cincinnati, about an hour and three-quarters from Columbus. We deliver you to the landing at the agreed boarding time and collect you at the end.
Cruise wardrobes are heavy, and a full-size SUV takes plenty of them. The driver lifts the bags at both ends, offers an arm at the kerb and fits child seats on request.
Driving up to Cleveland on the morning of a Great Lakes sailing leaves no margin for an I-71 accident. We suggest a night near the lakefront, with the chauffeur carrying bags into the hotel and out to the pier the next morning, so the only decision on sailing day is when to board.
Many Columbus families take a lake ferry to Kelleys Island or Put-in-Bay from Sandusky or Catawba. The drive is about two hours, and summer traffic on US-23 and SR-2 is slow. A chauffeur lets everyone relax, drops you at the dock before the departure and meets you on return at the time you choose.
Pickup calculated backwards from your boarding window and the port's traffic pattern.

Chauffeurs know the correct pier, lane and porter points at each cruise terminal.
We track the ship's arrival and hold the vehicle until you clear the terminal.
