netpj Posted September 14, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I have a question for anyone who has disembarked in NYC. Is it realistic to book a noon (domestic flight) departure from LGA?. We are not sure how bad the traffic is heading to LGA from Manhatten cruise terminal in the morning. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O has recommended earliest flight times after disembarking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FlyerTalker Posted September 14, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 14, 2022 And remember that any listed arrival time is a proposed time, at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare FlyerTalker Posted September 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Plus, you don't mention if this is the first USA port. That could generate big customs and immigration processing time. And what day of the week is that? Pro tip: When asking for information, it can never hurt to give ALL relevant information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
netpj Posted September 14, 2022 Author #5 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Thanks for the comments. It's not the first US port but given it is a Friday, we have booked an afternoon flight (1:30). If there are issues at LGA, weather issues or traffic is a probem etc. etc. there are later flights that day but not until 5:00 pm. but at least there are options!

RetiredLifer Posted September 14, 2022 #6 Share Posted September 14, 2022 We disembarked at the Manhattan Terminal last Saturday. We were on the Insignia. There was a mega cruise ship, a ship our size and us. Immigration allocated 3 Immigration Officers for us. About 600 passengers, each had to do a face to face with immigration. It was slow. Noon out of LGA? Good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are arriving during the week, I wouldn’t book a flight leaving before 1pm to be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
