Heads up for Sept 25 NYC cruisers

[Love the beach]

I have not checked the cruise calendar but for those who might be cruising on Friday, Sept. 25 either out of Manhattan or Brooklyn please allow lots of extra time getting to the ports. Pope Francis will be in town and will be attending the 9/11 Memorial site at 11:30 am....lower Manhattan will be very congested and there will be a lot of frozen zones thru-out the city....here is the link to the street closures.

It won't affect us, but that was nice of you to post the heads up.

Per the official port website, nycruise.com , no cruises are arriving in Manhattan or Brooklyn that day. The only ship in port, Aurora, is in Manhattan as a port of call.
