tamom Posted May 10, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 10, 2023 My husband and I are taking a repositioning cruise in November out of Cape Liberty. The cruise ends in SJU and we’ll be flying back to Hartford. We would like to rent a car to drive to NJ. Avis has a location at 180 E 22nd St in Bayonne, not far from the port. Has anyone dropped a car off there and how did you get to the port? The # for the local office there is impossible to reach and corporate Avis says there is no shuttle. Any help is much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTJ Posted May 10, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 10, 2023 There is no local public transportation to the Cape Liberty Cruise Port, and absent a very ambitious walk, you're going to have to rely upon hiring a driver and vehicle to take you from "The Crossing" to the cruise terminal. The city franchises taxis, and there are TNC vehicles; given the very short distance involved--less than three miles--the fare should be quite reasonable . . . perhaps $10 or so.

Avis in Bayonne is closed on Sunday but I think Jewel departs on a weekday. There is no shuttle provided by Avis. Taxi service is provided by Archies Cab and Bayonne Yellow Cab (same business, different phone numbers). Uber/Left option but like!y more expensive than taxi due to surge pricing as was on my recent Cape Liberty cruise, so have Archies number. If flat rate is charged, expect $15 minimum as rates have increased since I used Archies in 2021. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamom Posted May 12, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted May 12, 2023 Thank you so much! These responses are so helpful. Yes, Jewel leaves on a Thursday. I appreciate the local input and will now book our car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am unfamiliar with Avis. Archies flat fare from 34th street light rail to Cape Liberty is $12, Uber quoted $16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
