Use taxis or limos for your transfers: After a long flight and arriving at an airport that you might not be familiar with, the last thing you need is the stress of trying to locate your transfer to your hotel.
Your best bet is to budget for a taxi to take you directly to your destination unless it is quite far and bound to be very expensive. In this case, find out what limo companies charge for the transfer. Many times in ports such as Galveston, where the port is considerable distance from the airport, getting a limo for their minimum rental period is either less expensive or comparable to regular motor coach transfers.
Needless to say, riding in a chauffeur driven limo or taxi or minibus is a much nicer experience than waiting around the airport while people and luggage are collected and waiting in the line to get taxi if this available. Once you arrive at your destination, you simply walk to the front desk and check in. If you arrive in a motor coach full of folks, you are likely to be standing in line for some time. Ditto for your return from the cruise.
Hassling the crowds of passengers transferring to the airport in motor coaches is simply not worth it. Grab a taxi and beat the crowd.
