Parking at Cape Liberty

I had also checked out the embassy suite options and I think it was doubletree that has similar park and stay option.     That is our back up plan should we have bad winter weather then we will drive up on Saturday instead of having our Son drive us on Sunday.

The porters are great - we have done something similar in the past with porter waiting while DH got the car.   

I will not cancel Embassy until day before when I see what the weather will be like.

Thanks for all the wonderful replies and helpful hints. Very much appreciated.

 

I think we can get our son to take off from work and drive us to the terminal, but then that leaves us needing transportation back to Long Island. I did a quick Uber search, and I probably can get a ride for about $100.

So, to any that have been to Cape Liberty, can I just exit the terminal and call Uber and they will pick us up right there? Or is there a section designated for ride pickups like that? And, if so, about how far might it be from exiting the terminal?

 

Again thanks to all who replied.

We are also from Long Island and would only do the parking at the port. If I was going longer than 9 days I would use an Uber to get there. Just makes sense dollar wise.

Parking at the port is very safe. We took a summer cruise and parked outside as there are also multple open lots. No problem at all and almost as close as the parking garage to the terminal. If you are leaving on Saturday or Sunday the drive is a breeze. Use Waze for directions especially as you go through Manhattan.

how do you extra $5 or $10 a day - the cost is $25 per day (rumor was it was going up to $30/per day but that hasn't happened Yet.

The extra $5 to $10 per day was in reference to the higher charge versus another parking option.

We are doing a 22 night b2b on Anthem in January and our Son has volunteered to drive us to port then we are going to rent a car for the 2 to 2.5 hour drive home.   I can use points from my credit card to cover car rental fee.   Parking for 22 nights would cost $550.     I don't want to waste vacation money on parking when I can use that on the islands or the casino🤩

This would be ideal.  I have never used Uber from the port, but  have seen others doing it.  Yes, they just called.  The pickup stations at Cape Liberty are numbered (or are they letters?  Memory is fuzzy on that) and one of them is for ride services.

We just exited the terminal and walked to the left. The Uber picked us up right there in front of the terminal. You actually had to cross the street to get a cab.
