RAPM7169 Posted March 18 #1 Share Posted March 18 In looking at my October cruise RT out of NYC, the departure is listed as "New York City (Manhattan or Brooklyn)". When can I expect to find out which terminal it will be so I can pre-arrange transportation from the airport (EWR)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare mizLORInj Posted March 18 #2 Share Posted March 18 I usually see Princess ships at the Brooklyn (Red Hook) terminal. When I looked at the NY cruise terminal schedule, it shows Sky Princess at Manhattan and Enchanted Princess at Brooklyn in the fall. You can use EWR for both ports though. https://nycruise.com/manhattan-terminal/schedule-mct/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAPM7169 Posted March 19 Author #3 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Thanks, now I can start looking for EWR<>Cruise Terminal transportation. Anyone have a car service recommendation? Edited March 19 by RAPM7169 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, call Carmel Car Service - they are excellent. Have used them many times when going in to NYC. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Cruiser27 Posted March 19 #6 Share Posted March 19 If your sailing on the Enchanted Princess it will be Red Hook Brooklyn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the Enchanted on Aug 31 and neither schedules show Enchanted. Brooklyn shows Emerald on Aug 30 & 31st. I am guessing the 31st is for Enchanted and not Emerald. But also based on Princess' website, Emerald isn't in NYC on either dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the Aug 31 Enchanted sailing as well (did YOU know it was a Love boat themed cruise...because I didn't until after I booked, lol). Everything I've gathered is that it leaves from Brooklyn.

SSAtlantic Posted March 20 #9 Share Posted March 20 Does Princess have transfers from EWR to and from Red Hook? If so, what is the usual cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lx200gps Posted March 20 #10 Share Posted March 20 As others have stated, it's almost guaranteed that the trip will leave from and return to Brooklyn. Generally, Princess only uses the MCT as an intermediate stop on a longer voyage. It's hard to understand why Princess keeps up that (Manhattan or Brooklyn) wording, but they do. In 2022, when we left from Brooklyn on the Enchanted, we also saw that confusing wording, but noticed something change within a few weeks of departure. When I went into the Personalizer to look at the booking, on the "Itinerary" tab, it still said "New York City (Manhattan or Brooklyn), New York" for the departure port, but then right underneath, very clearly listed the address of the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, 72 Bowne Street etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike A Posted March 20 #11 Share Posted March 20 Attached is the link to, in my opinion. the best the best and most complete schedule for ships leaving NYC Current Arrivals & Departures – World Ship Society (worldshipny.com). You will see it has the Enchanted leaving Brooklyn/Red Hook on August 31st. As stated above, Princess rarely uses the Manhattan Cruise Terminal (MCT). The only time this year Princess will be at the MCT will be 7/13-14 as a port call as part of the Coral Princess World Cruise and 10/2-3 as part of Sky Princess Transatlantic.

Everything I've gathered is that it leaves from Brooklyn. Yes, we were already booked when they announced it. I wasn't sure how to feel about it, but people on here told me that it won't be as big of a deal as I was afraid it would be. I do know that our price went down before the announcement (glad I caught it when I did) and then went back up and even higher after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would also like to know this. We plan on taking a train from Philly and trying to figure the easiest way... right now seems like penn station and an uber to the port?
