Looks like this takes us over the GW bridge!. Google Maps, it says to take I80 to I95, to the I95/ NJ turnpike for a few miles, to Henry Hudson Parkway. Or, use Waze to take you to Port Imperial Ferry to park there for your Breakaway cruise, as 138east/Carol explained. 46 East, a local bypass to reach the lower level of GWB using EZ-Pass. If you do not have EZ-Pass, take the upper level of the GWB to NY as the lower level of GWB is EZ-Pass, which I use often when truck traffic are jamming the upper level approach - and, Waze sometime direct me to take Rt. OP, if you can or are using a smartphone, consider using Map/Navigation by Google from Ohio to your first stop the night before (which incorporate real-time traffic info from Waze, another free App for both iPhones & Androids) and then, use Waze to navigate the rest of the way/last 2 hours - which has the option to choose different routing, coming across from NJ - it should/always show the GWB approach as one option - or select GWB as a "waypoint" or intermediate stop, then continue onto Manhattan Cruise Terminal, which will guide you down the Henry Hudson/old West Side Hwy as above - link given by Turtles06 & written by another CC member. You will pay $280 to park at the Manhattan pier plus a eastbound only $15 bridge or tunnel toll to get into NY. At Port Imperial one person can get dropped off at the ferry terminal entrance with the luggage while the other person parks. Also there are free ferry buses that can get you closer to the pier entrance or a cab ride up the street is inexpensive. It's about a 10-12 block walk directly up 12th Ave. We have never been to NYC, and are kind of afraid of the whole process :eek:Īnother option folks use is to park at Port Imperial in Weehawken NJ for $16/day and take the ferry across for $9/pp each way. Any advice about parking, driving, or my whole plan in general is appreciated. Outrageous compared to other cruise ports, but it is NYC. In this scenario, when people are not using a hotel near the area, do travelers usually just park at the cruise port parking deck? Looking it up, looks like it's going to be $280 or so for a 7 day cruise. Then driving the last 2 hours or so in the morning. We have a 3 year old son at home who is staying with grandma.so we plan on leaving around 8pm the night before after dropping him off, driving the first 5 or so hours, and then finding somewhere to sleep. Leaving from Ohio, we will not be staying in the area at a hotel the night before. We will be departing on the NCL Breakaway Sunday Oct.2.
