Car service to Manhattan Cruise Terminal
Car service to Manhattan Cruise Terminal with a chauffeur — from JFK, LaGuardia, Newark or a Manhattan hotel to the Hudson River piers in Midtown West. The price is fixed before you book.
Where the Manhattan Cruise Terminal is
The Manhattan Cruise Terminal is on Twelfth Avenue in Midtown West, where Piers 88 and 90 run out into the Hudson River. It is the only one of the three New York-area cruise terminals in Manhattan itself — a short ride from most Midtown hotels, and the reason many passengers stay in the city the night before.
From the airports to the Manhattan piers
LaGuardia is the nearest airport: about 16 road miles on our quoted route, against about 17 from Newark and 27 from JFK. The drive times we were given were 49 minutes from LaGuardia, 58 from Newark and 85 from JFK for a mid-morning weekday, because every route ends by crossing Midtown. We track your flight and the first 60 minutes of airport waiting are free. Terminal pickup notes are on the JFK, LaGuardia and Newark pages.

Trips to the piers are priced by distance, so the fare is specific to your pickup; from a Manhattan hotel, enter the address and it appears before you book. How fares are built is on our rates page.
Sailing day at the piers
Twelfth Avenue is busy on sailing mornings, so allow more time than the distance suggests even from a nearby hotel. Your chauffeur follows the terminal's traffic staff to the drop-off for your pier, where porters take checked bags. For the day you return, book the pickup for when you expect to be off the ship and put the ship's name in the notes.
