plcruiser Posted April 17, 2008 #1 Share Posted April 17, 2008 What time should we arrive at the cruise terminal for the April 19th cruise on the Spirit. We are just worried about traffic problems with the Pope visiting and we were thinking about getting there early. What is the earliest time they will let you on the ship?

slotaddict Posted April 17, 2008 #2 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The ship supposedly does not dock until 10:00 am, it will probably be there earlier but no way to tell until this cruise comes back. I wouldn;t arrive before 11:00 but that is me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warbird Posted April 17, 2008 #3 Share Posted April 17, 2008 The ship supposedly does not dock until 10:00 am, it will probably be there earlier but no way to tell until this cruise comes back. I wouldn't arrive before 11:00 but that is me. Last Monday, we were scheduled to arrive at 10:00 AM. The ship went by the Statue of Liberty at 8:00 AM and moved up the Hudson at an idle speed. Around 8:30 AM we went to eat at the Windows Dining Room and during Breakfast, moved in along side the dock. Express carry off passengers got off first and Blue (9th floor) was called about 10:45 AM. People were already arriving, but they were waiting outside on the sidewalk if memory serves me correct. I would guess it took another hour to get everybody off the ship. That's just a guess since over half the decks hadn't been called at that point. Consider though that a lot of people use the Express carry-off which get to go first. Now, you just need to factor in what traffic will be like on Saturday. Good Luck,:) John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
