wrk2cruisesoon Posted March 5, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 5, 2014 We have sailed out of NY before but I see for our Gem cruise in April it says disembarkation is at 10 a.m. Is that true? If so, can you still get on the ship around noon or is it later since the ship gets into port later? We are driving from Maryland so I want to time our arrival so that we don't sit in too much traffic or get to the port after boarding. The Gem leaves on a Monday so I know we will be hitting traffic!

I noticed this too when we booked and thought it odd. But the ship has been back at the dock at 7am for all except one cruise this season. Boarding has been starting at noon.

PCLMassachusetts Posted March 6, 2014 #3 Share Posted March 6, 2014 We were able to board the GEM in NYC at about 11:30, give or take a few minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emcelh Posted March 6, 2014 #4 Share Posted March 6, 2014 We were on the Gem a few months ago and the arrival time in New York scheduled for 10am then too. We actually were docked much earlier, before 8 if I remember. You should be onboard by noon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30038599 Posted March 6, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 6, 2014 We were on the Gem three weeks ago and got back to New York at 8am. You should be able to broad around noon. Have a great cruise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wrk2cruisesoon Posted March 7, 2014 Author #6 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Thanks everyone! I am looking forward to it as it was an unexpected treat! The price was just too good to pass up. It pays to stalk the NCL website!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
