Brooklyn to midtown NY

[PJ's]

We are sailing on the QM2 to New York departing the UK on 19 Nov 2016 and arriving in New York on 26th Nov. We have booked to stay 4 nights in a midtown hotel and wonder what is the best way after disembarking to get to our hotel. There are 4 adults in our party, plus luggage. Would we all fit into a taxi or would we be better pre-booking an SUV to meet us at the port? Any information would be appreciated.

Hi PJ's,

 

I think you may something bigger than a taxi with four people and all their cases; I've crossed with family/friends on QM2 several times and we all had two cases each :eek: (plus "carry on" hand luggage). A SUV/VAN would be better I would think...

 

There is an active roll-call for the WB crossing 19th - 26th November here:

Hope this helps, have a great crossing on the amazing QM2, Bon Voyage!

Possibly email then phone for a SUV when getting off ship

I will also be on that crossing and usually just take a cab into NYC from Red Hook. However, since there are four of you, you may need two cabs. Another option would be to book a car service. Two that are often recommended are:

Hope to see you on board!

We've used Dial 7 a bunch of times and recommend it. I think you will have too much stuff for one cab. Have a great crossing!

When in NYC I book Black Crown. Have always received good service.
