I concur with ispp regarding luggage. We (and BP riders) never check but that's the SOP.
I have some buddies in Italy right now. 3 chose to fly to AMS for a few days then Ryanair (paying for extra everything) and got to Rome for a few days. (yes, it was packed--they had to got to the Spanish steps at 7 am because they couldn't see anything for all the masses there.) Last one went from SEA to AMS, then Transavia flight (I think) to Trieste (I think) to meet the others. Getting them out is going to be the hard part, but they will be split in 7 more days and return separately. They plan to depart from Pisa.
When does the cruise depart? Do you have a plan if you can't get there in time? What BP DOH are they using? Are you NUTZ!?????
I wish you luck--you will need it. Feel free to ask for advice along the way (and on Friday if it looks bleak) I recommend lots of prayer.
