$120–$350 by cruise lengthThe port runs two garages and charges by cruise length, not by the day: $120 for a 4-night cruise, $135 for 5, $160 for 6, $180 for 7, $200 for 8 and $350 for 14. Carnival parks in the Erato Street garage, on top of its terminal; Norwegian and Royal Caribbean at 100 Poydras, with a shuttle to Julia Street, which publishes only the 4-, 5- and 7-night rates.
Both open at 9 AM and take cards only. Reserving adds $1 a day; driving up doesn’t. The port’s FAQ still quotes $25 a day, which matches only its 8- and 14-night rates. Compare every parking option.

Ramada Kenner FAQ
Does Ramada Kenner have a cruise shuttle?
Not that it publishes. Wyndham lists no port shuttle.
Does Ramada Kenner have an airport shuttle?
Yes, from MSY. Free 24/7 shuttle; reserve ahead. Wyndham puts MSY four miles away.
Can I park at Ramada Kenner while I cruise?
Yes, but the price isn't published. Wyndham lists a paid Park Before You Fly service here without a price or any cruise wording. Ask whether it covers a cruise, and what it costs.
How far is Ramada Kenner from the New Orleans cruise terminals?
Wyndham gives no distance to the port. It puts the airport four miles away. It sits in our Kenner & the airport band.
Can I check in early or check out late on cruise days?
Check-in is not stated and check-out not stated. The hotel doesn't publish early or late terms, so ask when you book, not on the day.
Will the hotel hold my bags?
The hotel doesn't say. Most hotels will hold bags between check-out and a late shuttle, but that's a call to make, not an assumption.
Does the port shuttle come back for me after the cruise?
There's no hotel shuttle to the port. The city's flat taxi fare from downtown to MSY is $36 for one or two people.
What's the breakfast timing on sail morning?
Free hot breakfast. Your terminal check-in window is in your cruise documents, and the port asks you not to arrive before it.
Can I park an oversized vehicle or charge an EV?
EV charging: not stated. Clearance and oversized parking aren't published. Both of the port's garages cap vehicles at 22 feet. Clearance is 6'6" at 100 Poydras and 7'6" on Erato Street's upper floors, with limited 8'4" space on its third; anything bigger goes through the port's parking contact.
