Best place to be during Sailaway on GEM from NYC?

[oskar95]

So, I want too see everything when we sail away! The statue, Manhattan and Queen Mary 2 who will be in Red Hook, departing 11 PM. (We 10 pm).

 

So, where's the ULTIMATE place to be?

 

Sail away pictures? Bring it on!

 

Thank you!

You can see pretty much everything from the jogging track on Deck13...but it's likely to be rather cold and windy up there in late December.

 

By the way, as far as I can tell, the Gem departs at 4pm, not 10pm...but i think the QM2 departs at 5, not 11. Perhaps, you're using you local time in Norway, not the time in NY/

We spent our Gem sailaway at the Great Outdoors...loved the view!

You can be in spinnaker bar on the bow and walk back and forth to see both the Statue of Liberty and the Freedom tower if it is cold.

 

Or go to the top deck and do the same if your dressed well or not cold.

Whatever you can do, be topside. Done it a few times and still is amazing.

It doesn't matter but everyone goes to the starboard side when she passes the Statue of Liberty.

 

We have never seen any of the ships ported in Brooklyn when sailing on NCL.

There are many great places to get a great view of NYC & Statue of Liberty. DOn't forget to look back on the great view of the city. Everyone is out to see you go under the Verrazano Bridge. I see you are from Flekkefjord. My parents are from Norway and I visited your home town to visit family friends. What an wsum place and relax and eat some crabs and drink a beer
