Since I want some leeway in case of auto trouble get there a day early and stay at hotel.

For next trip considering Yankee trails but what happens if bus breaks down on way to port and you miss the ship?
We've never had a problem with Yankee T, but DID have a bus break down one time with another popular Florida cruise bus company. In that case the driver called in (of course) and while it took over 2 and a half hours for another bus to be sent, and for the transfer of all passengers and luggage, we did make it before the 4:30 p.m. sailing time. It would be VERY WISE to check the "transportation" to port aspect of your travel insurance before purchasing it. For instance, does it CLEARLY state payment for ANY reason, even break down of your own automobile on the way to the port ? What about breakdown or delay of public transportation ?
