jrjac Posted May 24, 2005 #1 Share Posted May 24, 2005 We are interested in sailing from Boston or New Jersey to avoid flying. Does anyone know the parking arrangements at either port? Cost? Convenience? Any tips? Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonsmom Posted May 24, 2005 #2 Share Posted May 24, 2005 We are sailing out of NJ on the 17th of June. We are parking our car @ the Bonanza Bus station in Providence for free. The transfers are $66 p/p. If you were to drive to NJ - parking at the pier is $12 per day. There really isnt anywhere to park in Boston - living in Warwick you would be better off driving to Providence or maybe CT. Not sure where in CT though the bus stops.

jrjac Posted May 25, 2005 Author #3 Share Posted May 25, 2005 Thanks for the info! Is the parking in NJ actually on RCCL property? Are transfers needed or are you "right there"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the parking is right next to the terminal. You can drop your passengers off and park closeby. It's a short walk, but they also have small shuttle vans if needed. Important to know they accept credit cards. Have had no problems with parking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo Posted May 25, 2005 #5 Share Posted May 25, 2005 We are going to drive up the night before and stay at the Holiday Inn Express Boston They have a ParkSleepCruise Package ParkSleepCruise Package: *One Night's Accommodations *Up to 21 Days of Parking *Round Trip Transfer to Black Falcon Pier *Complimentary Continental Breakfast Apr1 - Sep30 $189.00 Any Day of the Week Oct1 - Oct31 $199.00 Any Day of the Week Nov 1 - Mar31,06 $159.00 Any Day of The Week. $189 for our September Cruise on Jewel of the Seas Looks like it will work out perfect for us. We don't need anything fancy. http://www.parksleepfly.com/cruiseport_hotels/hotel_display.php?hotel_type=cruiseport&cruiseportID=3&hotelID=163&make_reservation= You can also park your car at the Black Falcon Pier for $12.00 a Day http://www.massport.com/ports/cruis_parki.html For our 10 day cruise parking would already total $120.00. For $70 bucks we figure the hotel room for the night will be worth it plus we will be more rested for our 1st day on the cruise. We leave mid week also, on Thursday so we won't have to worry about traffic either if we were to travel there same day as cruise, we will have all day to get there since we Leave for Boston the day before, should work out pretty good. Have never cruised from Bayonne so I can't help you with that. Jimbo:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
