Where does Regal dock in New York?

[canwegonow]

We're looking at a Canada/New England itinerary in the fall of 2019. Where does the Regal Princess dock in New York--Red Hook or Manhattan? Every time we've sailed out of the city it's been from the Manhattan piers, and we generally take a bus from home into the Port Authority bus terminal and then cab it to the pier. Would that still be feasible if the ship docks at Red Hook? (As you can probably tell, I really don't know New York at all). Thanks for your help!

We’ve done Quebec City to Ft Lauderdale (end of season) 4 times on Princess and docked at Red Hook every time. But that wasn’t embarking or debarking, just a port day. There is always much discussion on the CC thread about which NY pier will be used and Princess gives people various answers, yet it has been Red Hook as a port stop.

We did this itinerary and we left and returned to Red Hook in 2013.

Red Hook

Yes, you can take a cab from Port Authority bus terminal to Red Hook, it's about 45 mins away.

Is Red Hook the Brooklyn terminal?

[cruzrbachoua]

Yes Red Hook is the Brooklyn terminal not the one that is right in Manhattan.

I'm glad you asked this as I didn't realize there was a terminal other than the Manhattan one! We just moved our September 2018 pacific coastal over to a Canada/New England itinerary for the same time on Regal. Timely information, so thanks!

Red hook is in Brooklyn and in a very bad neighborhood.

Went out of Red Hook Sept 2017, Boarding QM2. Stayed in Brooklyn 2 nights prior. Brooklyn Heights & Promenade are great.....check out NU Hotel, Hilton, TripAdvisor hotel reviews.

Red Hook about 15 min by taxi or car. Brooklyn 45-60 min from JFK by car.

We stayed at the Marriott next to 911 Memorial and Ubered to Red Hook, took 15 minutes and about $20.

I would add that with Red Hook as a port stop, we took the water ferry last year over to Manhattan. Just steps away from the ship and very inexpensive, convenient & quick way to get there. Earlier cruises, we tried city bus / subway. [emoji1304]

Agree. It can be dangerous to walk around the area, day, or night. Stay away from the public housing area. Especially if you are not “street smart”, or elderly.

Dangerous because of drug dealers and addicts. Some gang activity. And, because sketchy street people checking you out to see if you are an easy mark.

So, be careful should you decide to walk around the area. Better to take a cab or Uber if you want to see other areas of Brooklyn, or go to NYC.

Be safe, and hope you enjoy your cruise. :)

The last time we boarded the Regal at Red Hook, it was a total disaster. We stood in a huge line for over 1.5 hours. We booked the Princess shuttle from the airport which was a fiasco. No one knew what they were doing. Another long wait. We are hoping boarding will be more organized this time.
