Lets talk cruises

Am doing a cruise from barcelona to rome in May, but the return flight is really late so thinking I don't want to be heading to the airport right when I get kicked off the ship, anyone got experience of spending a day in Civitavecchia? Or Is it worth getting to the airport then heading into rome?
 
Wouldn't head to the airport, waste of half a day, we usually book the excursion which takes you someplace then a coach to the airport, means you don't have bags to lug around.

All checked in here for an 11 day Virgin med cruise, 5 excursions booked for places we've not been before, cruise will take us back to Crete which we spent 11 days on last year and Rhodes in which we're spending 11 days later this year so will be interesting to get a small taste of both.

Fingers crossed my bid to upgrade to a suite gets accepted.

Civi is a pretty crappy port, and hours from Rome.

Last time we just went to Rome, dropped our bags at some luggage storage thing at the main station (I think) and bummed around Rome for a few hours.
