Embarkation at Port of Santos
Give the desk the cruise line, the ship and the sail date. The member operator in Santos confirms the terminal the port has assigned and times the transfer to the line’s boarding window — from São Paulo/Guarulhos–Governor André Franco Montoro International (GRU) with the flight tracked, or from a hotel with the pickup set so you arrive within the window rather than at the head of the queue.
Disembarkation
Disembarkation runs late more often than early. The reservation includes ninety minutes of complimentary wait from the ship’s scheduled arrival and the chauffeur holds at the terminal meeting point with a name board. Luggage goes straight from the hall to the vehicle, and the departure flight is on the confirmation so the timing is built around it.
Checking the berth before sailing day
Which terminal and berth your ship works from is set by the port, not the cruise line, and it can move in the last week of the schedule - which changes where a car is allowed to set down and how far you walk with luggage. Port of Santos official website publishes the working schedule; the desk reads it the day before and sends the chauffeur to the right gate.
Before and after the cruise
