Manhatten Pier - to LGA. Can we make an 11:23 flight?

We are departing the NCL Breakaway on March 18th and we will be in the Haven. We are hoping to be able to catch an 11:23 flight as our next choice is not until 2:30PM. Is it feasible to make this happen or should we just book the 2:30 flight and hopefully not have to sit around at the airport for hours?

I don't like stress so for me it is an easy answer and that is to go with the 2:30 PM flight over the morning one.

There are too many unknowns and that includes delays with arrival by the cruise ship and delays in immigration and customs both of which I have experienced on other lines from time to time along with longer then expected drive times and then there is the unknown at the airport for flight check in and security and even with TSA Pre Check which you may or may not have you never can be sure how long the process will take.

I believe in ending the cruises without rushing off the ship and spending part of the cruise worrying.

I think 11:23 AM is too early. Some will disagree but I would not do this.

If it is Sat/Sun you have traffic (lack of) in your favor. If it is a weekday, I would definitely not do it. Another factor is LGA has a LOT of construction going on, including roads that can cause delays...

I think we will stick to the later flight. I was hoping to get back home earlier as it is Sunday and we have work/school the next day. But I don't want to miss out flight either.

Later flight is safer, both BA and Gem has been inconsistent with their scheduled docking time for 8 and 10 AM. Priority escorted Haven disembarkation won't help if you are just got outside with porter's fast track thru CBP till 9:30 or 10:15.

We just got back from a cruise on the Gem, and it was almost 10:30 before they allowed self-disembarkation. I wouldn't do it.

You never know what is doing around LaGuardia these days. They could have lanes closed off because oif the construction, and getting off the ship is another story.

Glad you decided to play it safe with the later flight. You won't be sorry.

Cheers
