Frequently Asked Questions

In Bayonne, New Jersey, on a former military peninsula reaching into New York Bay. It is the New York-area cruise terminal for Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises.
A departure port above all. You don't come here to see a city: you begin or end a cruise to Bermuda, the Caribbean, the Bahamas or Canada and New England.
No. The port area is accessible only by vehicle — taxi, shuttle or car. It's a quirk of the terminal worth knowing before you arrive.
About 45 minutes in normal conditions, for some thirty kilometres, and longer at rush hour. Regional bridges and tunnels clog without warning: book your transfer ahead and leave a wide margin.
Strongly recommended if you're travelling from Quebec. A day or two ahead absorbs a flight delay and lets you see New York: Times Square, Central Park, the High Line, the Staten Island Ferry or the major museums.
Hotels near the terminal offer packages with parking and a shuttle to the pier, popular with families arriving by car. Jersey City and Newark are often cheaper than Manhattan while staying close.
Newark Airport, about twenty minutes from the terminal. It's the logical choice for passengers coming from Montreal.
Liberty State Park, whose lawns face the skyline, and the Liberty Science Center, a family favourite. The Jersey City and Hoboken waterfronts offer the best Manhattan views, especially at sunset.
It's the highlight. The ship swings into the bay, passes the Statue of Liberty close enough to make out the folds of her robe, salutes Ellis Island, then clears the Verrazzano-Narrows Bridge in the evening light.
Port side, facing the Statue of Liberty. Claim your spot on the open decks early and bring a jacket: the bay wind surprises even in summer.
