Rare JessyCruises Posted June 21 #2 Share Posted June 21 $30 per day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They kind of have you as a captive audience, but it is extremely convenient as the garage is right next to the terminal, and if full, the lot is across the street and equally convenient.

Uh, when we sailed in May of 2022, it was $30. Maybe you are thinking while sailing was still recovering before that? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We sailed out of Cape Liberty three times since the restart, with the first being the forth Oasis sailing from there in October when cruising resumed and the last being July '22. (The next will be this Sunday). So you are most likely correct and we would have paid $30 in '22. My fuzzy memory just has the timing off. LOL.

Other than some perhaps some rare occurrence (and threats of price increase which didn't take) the $30 rate started just late last year. This was October of 2021: 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog_Mom_1011 Posted June 21 #8 Share Posted June 21 Is getting into this lot/garage easy, or is there usually a traffic back up getting in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends on time of day but traffic is limited by luggage drop off speed so getting into the lot should be easy. The back up is before luggage drop off - the parking lot is after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our experience it is very easy. Maybe a couple of cars ahead but never any backup. Typically we drop our luggage off and my wife gets into the queue while I go park the car. From drop off to joining her is usually only about 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We paid $25.00/day in first half of 2023 then $30/day for a Fall 2023 cruise. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I incorrectly added the actual timing for that rate and prior amount was where I was off. But that doesn't change the answer to the original question of $30 to the OP. LOL.

No, parking at the terminal was $25 2 years ago and earlier. I did b2b on Oasis in October 2021. It was announced that the $30 parking fee was to go into effect on the second cruise, fortunately it did not and the $25 rate was in effect in 2022 as well.

If it is during the months that 2 Royal ships and Celebrity sail from Bayonne, most likely you will be directed to surface parking lots not the garage. The road leading to the terminal is 1 lane which expands to 2 when the terminal is in sight. Arriving before 10:30 am will minimize the time waiting to approach the terminal. All vehicles must pass through the luggage drop zone regardless if they utilize it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyjjs Posted June 22 #18 Share Posted June 22 9 hours ago, Dog_Mom_1011 said: Is getting into this lot/garage easy, or is there usually a traffic back up getting in? It also depends on how many ships are currently sailing on different dates out of Cape Liberty. If you're sailing from June-October, the Liberty AND Symphony are alternating departures and possibly might fill the parking garage. By November, it'll just be the Odyssey for the winter, so parking should be plenty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbancroft Posted June 22 #19 Share Posted June 22 In November and February the garage was only accepting handicapped tags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Scottdalfonso Posted June 22 #20 Share Posted June 22 we loved being able to park outside right in front of the terminal, much better than the garage! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted June 22 #21 Share Posted June 22 1 hour ago, dbancroft said: In November and February the garage was only accepting handicapped tags. I believe that you are remembering incorrectly. When only one ship is porting in Cape Liberty, everyone gets to park in the garage. This time period is roughly November to March. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My answer was correct as asked by the OP for the current rate at $30. The rest, although not correct to my recollection as explained, is irrelevant to the original question. It would be helpful if when quoting me you also had the full context of my subsequent responses. Edited June 22 by leaveitallbehind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had not seen your subsequent posts when I quoted your first reply with your irrelevant incorrect additional info "up from $20 two years ago". For the number of cruises I sail from Bayonne, I wish the daily rate was $20 not the present $30. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have cleared the cobwebs better before posting the prior rates. Still a very convenient departure port with very good facilities. Quite a change from the original terminal!

Rare mizLORInj Posted June 24 #25 Share Posted June 24 I wonder where you are directed if the deck is full and so is the overflow lot across the street from the terminal/deck. With Symphony and Liberty and Celebrity Eclipse using this port for the summer, I'm concerned about parking and thinking of using Uber/Lyft instead. What has been people's experience in the past month or so--since the 3 ships are using this port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
