Breakaway New York Port

[Squirty27]

Breakaway is still in port. Isn't it supposed to leave at 4?

The Gem is still in port also. Should have left at 4:00

Busy NY harbor, watching it live from the Highline @ Chelsea market/piers - GEM has turned & coming down the Hudson now, Breakaway should be next - just waiting for her turn to sail. Celebrity's Summit is now approaching VZB to head out to sea.

 

Happy & safe voyage, perfect day for outdoor sailaway parties.

 

P.S. Seafood lovers, this is the place to be - get your fixings of fresh salmon, tuna, jumbo shrimps & prawns, king crab legs, and, yes, lobsters - plus, fresh chowders. Indoors & nicely air-conditioned.

Perfect day for sailaway. Gem departed 45 minutes late. Breakaway departing now, 50 minutes late.....she was here so early this morning, too.

 

mking...Highline and Chelsea Market are one of my favorite places in the city, especially this time of year! Enjoy!!

 

Safe Sailing!

Can't seem to get ny harbor site to work. Using Port ny but not as good. Like to see the ships go under the VB.

One of our niece works for Google and their NY office is right here at Chelsea, another niece's BF working for a design firm for these new high-rises in this once abandoned area, amazing comeback & bringing in jobs and waterfront living ... for those that can afford it.

 

Here comes the mighty Breakaway ...

Robin - have you seen the armed US CG escort gunboat with the 50 caliber ?

Yes, I have seen the US CG escort gunboat with the rifle in front the past few weeks. I saw the pix in your review and in some other reviews. We didn't have that on our cruise last year, just two regular pilot boats.

Well, enjoy the perfect weekend weather today. It's going to get hot and stormy this week coming up.

 

Cheers!

We are getting ready to do our first NCL cruise and we were confused because we can schedule to arrive at the port well before the time it says to arrive - (can schedule to be there at 9:30, but it says not to arrive more than 1 hour before boarding time)... Any ideas about this - do you wait at the port? can you actually get on board? Thanks!

I was just going over the Verrazano Bridge when the Breakaway appeared. It just took my breath away. I love that ship.

I was on the May 24th sailing and we drove in from Ontario. We were at the port at 6:30 in the morning and they allowed us to drive up to the parking lot. We actually beat the parking attendant to work! They made us park at the top of the ramp and when the attendant came, just after 7am, they let us pay and park.

 

We then sat in the cruise terminal until we boarded around 11:30am. It was a lot of waiting for us but we gave ourselves plenty of driving time, just in case.
