CCW0101 Posted July 17, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I'm sailing in October on a New England/Canada Cruise. Gets back into port Cape Liberty on a Saturday morning. For those who have sailed from Cape Liberty - do you think I can make an 11am flight home? Royal is saying nothing before 1pm but if I don't take the 11:10am I sit around until 6pm. Just not sure how far or how busy EWR is. Thanks for your opinions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biker19 Posted July 17, 2018 #2 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Welcome to CC. You might have the documented lurking record. That should be fine, if the ship is not delayed and you do self assist disembarkation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted July 17, 2018 #3 Share Posted July 17, 2018 This past October we had no trouble doing self disembark and getting from Cape Liberty to EWR for our 11:30am flight... We used Uber for our transportation...quick and easy. Not a fan of EWR so the less time the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted July 17, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Yes should be easily do-able. Be in one of the first groups off carrying your own luggage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SbbquilterUT Posted July 17, 2018 #5 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Never can guarantee it but we easily made a 9:25 flight (schedule change by airline with no later option) - walked off, nabbed a taxi and we were at EWR at 8:00 am. Nerve wracking but worked out this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mets123 Posted July 17, 2018 #6 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Cruise port to EWR is less than 10 miles. Not much traffic on a Saturday. It should not be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wine-O Posted July 17, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Welcome to Cruise Critic. If you're on the 18 October sailing, stop over at the Roll Call. This is a place where all the folks that are on that ship/sailing and exchange a lot of yada, yada, yada, and the like. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2498924 If you're on the 4 October sailing, here's their Roll Call. Stop over and say hello. https://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2488232 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melrosgirl Posted July 17, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I’ve disembarked in cape liberty a few times and twice we were very late arriving due to rough weather (summer cruises). Two hour delay each time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Barracuda Posted July 17, 2018 #9 Share Posted July 17, 2018 I’ve disembarked in cape liberty a few times and twice we were very late arriving due to rough weather (summer cruises). Two hour delay each time. That's very unusual. Have sailed from Cape Liberty many times and NEVER returned late. IMO biggest risk is TSA line at EWR. Hopefully you have TSA-Pre.
