Are you talking about accessible transportation from the airport to the cruise port?
From LGA to hotel (mid-town Manhattan), hotel to cruise port and then cruise port to LGA. Most services I've looked into charges $250USD before tips for the airport trip.
Thinking of asking the taxi dispatcher @ LGA for an accessible yellow cab taxi where costs seems to be more reasonable: $50 - $70. We are just worried that we need to wait for more than an hour for an accessible one. I called the dispatcher for NYC cab accessible taxi line and they said it is pretty reliable but they don't book the LGA to Manhattan trip and asked me to talk to the dispatcher there directly.
Also looked into Access-A-Ride (AAR) services for NYC but online review seems to suggest very slow services.
Wondering if anyone had any experience.

A little update, we decided to go with NCL 5 day Bermuda cruise in Nov.
Questions - anyone had good experiences with accessible transportation in NYC to cruise ports? Getting quotes close to $300.

Hello - I'm new to this forum and am trying to look for recommendations.
I'm planning to take my parents on a cruise with Cape Liberty as a departure port. We are looking for 5-7 nights of cruising with less of a preference on the destination as long as it comes back to Cape Liberty.
I was looking at Royal Carrbiean and NCL cruises to Bermuda with accessible rooms on those, are those cruise lines fine for people with a wheelchair? My father can barely walk so he'll be bringing his own wheelchair for this travel. If there are also recommendations on what to book in term of cabin (interior ocean suite etc.) - that'd be much appreciated.
This is going to be the first time I'm traveling with them since his disability and would appreciate the help.

Thanks. We saw that in the checkin. It's about 60 per person coming to around 180 total for 3.
I called LGA and they indicated that the dispatcher will be able to get accessible taxis and I'll be able to call the dispatch line in NYC for the other legs. Seems to be the most economical option and hopefully it works out.
