duceno1 Posted January 27, 2008 #1 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Does anyone know how much it would cost to park for the week at the NCL port in NYC? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsinj Posted January 27, 2008 #2 Share Posted January 27, 2008 We sailed on Carnival from NYC in August and parking is extremely expensive at the piers - $24 a day. If you live in the NY/NJ area you might consider public transportation to the pier - lots less hassle. We parked at our local train station, took NJ Transit into Penn Station and then a cab over to the pier. No worries about traffic along the way, tolls, driving in the city. We'd definitely do it the same way if leaving from NYC again in the future. Howard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duceno1 Posted January 27, 2008 Author #3 Share Posted January 27, 2008 How far is it from Penn Station to the pier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smeyer418 Posted January 27, 2008 #4 Share Posted January 27, 2008 24 per day max of 180 for 12 and then it repeats. Penn Station is 2 miles from the manhattan piers. Penn Station is at 33rd and eith avenue the piers are at 12th avenue from 48th to 52nd street.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duceno1 Posted January 27, 2008 Author #5 Share Posted January 27, 2008 taking the train in sounds great, but the problem is once I get to the station. I use a motorized wheelchair, and would need lift-equipped vehicle to get from the station to the pier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buses do but you will then have a distance to go with the wheelchair and luggage... dirve. They have handicapped spots but I still think they charge you the same amount. you may want to look or post you question here http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=190 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron46936 Posted January 27, 2008 #7 Share Posted January 27, 2008 As I recall it was very easy getting from the parking into the cruise terminal. Basically just going to the elevator and going down. Even though we are not physically impaired I think the convenience out ways the extra cost. Especially since any special arrangements would need to be made both coming and going.
