Rare teacherman Posted September 7, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 7, 2022 We are from Michigan and usually fly to Florida for a March cruise. Airfares currently are more than the cruise. We are considering a cruise on Anthem of the Seas, March 26, out of Cape Liberty. It would be a 10 hour drive for us, but that is much less costly than the air tickets. So, I realize that weather is not always an exact science, but I am just looking for information from people who may have done a cruise at this time of the year from the NYC area. I know that we will probably have nice weather the days we are in the Florida and Bahamas area, but am wondering about the first and last sea days. This is a 3-generation family cruise with 6 adults and 2 girls, ages 13 and 15. Any information or advice about weather or parking at the terminal is welcome. We have cruised from here before, but that was in the summer and we flew in the day prior to the cruise. Thank you for your assistance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkacmom Posted September 7, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Parking is $20 a day and easy, weather that time of the year can vary greatly, I remember there was a huge snow storm the day before I had my March baby, I remember my son’s 4th birthday party mid April being 90 degrees.

Reportedly it was going to be raised to $30 earlier this year but it never was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted September 15, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 15, 2022 March weather could be spring-like weather or a snowstorm or something in between. If you're driving, watch the long-range forecasts and go early if there's going to be a storm along your route. Yes, your first and last days will be chilly. A lot of people don't like that, wanting to get right to tropical weather. But it's kind of fun to have a different sort of sea day. I've sailed out of NYC in January and it was like changing seasons as we sailed south. And the Anthem should have plenty for you to do indoors.
