Early flight into Newark.

[ecormier]

In your experience, what is the earliest time that embarkation would take place in Port Liberty? We have a very early flight, arriving before 8:00 am. I know they will still be disembarking the previous cruise, so what can we do to kill time.

 

Cheers, Betty

We always arrive at Port Liberty at 9:30. Drop our luggage to the porters, park the car and get in line. Sit for a while until they start boarding people. (time varies). Usually at 11:30.

 

If your flight is SUPER early....have breakfast at the airport.

Yes, that is about all you can do. You're not going to consider taking a tour of downtown Newark!:eek:

11ish would be the earliest embarkation. Really not a lot to do. Get off the plane leisurely. Collect your luggage and go have some sort of breakfast - http://www.panynj.gov/airports/ewr-shops-restaurants-services.html

 

Have your car service pick you up between 9-9:30. Check as much stuff as possible at Cape Liberty and walk over to the 911 Memorial, look around, and take pictures of the ship and the harbor. Then check in to the cruise.

@cruisebunnies: we are flying with United. The flight leaves Ottawa at 6:00am on the 6th. Returning it leaves Newark at 11:05am on the 13th.

 

@loubetti: LOL

Take a cab and visit the Statue of Liberty? You can book an timed ticket and leave on the ferry from Liberty Park in NJ.

No WAY in heck would I attempt this. Waaaaaaay too many things could go wrong and bingo...you miss the ship. If they were flying in the day before, it would be fine.

Realistically no one is going to recommend a flight before noon. Cape Liberty disembarkations can be unpredictable.

If you took self disembarkation, you could make a 10-10:30 flight.

[ecormier]

I took a 10:30 flight from Boston terminal to airport for a 10:30 am flight and got to the airport checkin before it was open!

 

Last year, we got off the ship in NJ using self disembarkation, grabbed a cab and again got to the airport with time to spare.

Thanks booked an afternoon flight as we will be coming home March 4th we are on the Anthem Ontario Cruiser

By the time you get your luggage, head to the taxi stand, and get to port...boarding should be starting....

[Keith1010]

I would go there directly.

 

If you asked before booking flights I would have recommended flying the day before the cruise though.
