larry the lobster Posted May 22, 2008 #1 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Earlier I posted but not in the right forum. Dumb> I am stil not sure if this is where I should post. Anyway I am going on the Explorer of the Seas in June. We will be arriving back on a Sat. Does anyone know what time we will get off the ship. ( We are diamond members if that matters) Our plane does not leave until 6:30 pm and Royal Carribean does not offer any tour in New York for the day of arrivial. I contacted a tour co. called My Kind of Town New York, has anyone used them? They charged $140.00 a hour with a 4 hour min. Can anyone suggest anything to do because I hate to be stuck in a airport all day especially with a 8 year old. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Booper Posted May 22, 2008 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2008 You should re-post this question in the Homeports section - East Coast forum. Lots of regulars there and lots of threads on this topic. What airport are you leaving from after the cruise? It can be slow getting off the ship at Bayonne but since you are diamond I would opt for priority disembarking to get off early to give yourself the most time. The problem is that you will have your luggage with you so you will need an operator that can store your luggage in the bus/van. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobal Posted May 22, 2008 #3 Share Posted May 22, 2008 I asked a similar question recently on the ports of call board. Take a look at the link, which may provide some help: http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?p=14618658&posted=1#post14618658 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted May 22, 2008 #4 Share Posted May 22, 2008 They want the ship emptied of passengers by 10am at the latest--that's going to be a long day for you! The East Coast forum is probably the best place to get more info. Is there any way to get your flight changed to something earlier? The main problem will be the luggage storage.

larry the lobster Posted May 22, 2008 Author #5 Share Posted May 22, 2008 Thanks, I will repost in The East Coast forum. No can not change flight. The Tour service I talked about stores our luggage and takes us to the airport. I judt did not want to pay $140.00 per hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sue L Posted May 22, 2008 #6 Share Posted May 22, 2008 140$ an hour seems very high even for NY. If I had the day off I would drive you.;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
