Duck Down Posted November 5, 2019 #1 Share Posted November 5, 2019 The plan is to drive across the George Washington Bridge and head down to park at the pier for a NCL Escape cruise. It will be a weekday around 10:00. Is there anything we should be aware of? Traffic? getting into the parking garage? We hope it will be a smooth process and not be stuck in lines for hours. First time driving into New York City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be on the very tail end of rush hour-- honestly I would wait to hit the bridge around 10:30-11 and that will make sure everything is going to have a better chance of being clear. You can of course have random traffic at any time. From the GWB its a straight shot down the Hudson Parkway (9A South) to 55th St. You'll see the ship on approach.

First time driving into New York City. It's as easy as can be. They'll be a big sign at the entrance to the cruise terminal...you can't miss it. FYI, it's not parking garage if that makes any difference to you. Cruise terminal parking is an open air lot on the roof of each of the cruise piers.

Rare Noxequifans Posted November 5, 2019 #4 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Be aware that the GWB backs up frequently. Not unusual to hear of 30 to 40 minute backups. As suggested ... plan to enter the GWB 10:30 or a little later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mskaufman Posted November 6, 2019 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2019 Parking at the pier was as easy as could be. Out of the car and onto the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
