LaGuardia, JFK, or Newark Airport Taxi Service to Cape Liberty Cruise Port
Taxis from LaGuardia and taxis from JFK International are readily available, as is Uber and Lyft. However, these options can be costly due to the minimum one-hour distance to the Bayonne cruise terminal. The port offers outstanding views of the harbor, the Statue of Liberty and lower Manhattan. But Bayonne itself is primarily a residential community, rather than a hot spot for tourism. Truth be told, the port is rather drab and industrial looking. Indeed, Bayonne's best asset is its proximity to bustling communities like Hoboken, Jersey City and, of course, the Big Apple, only seven miles (or a 10-minute drive) away.
Hotel and Off Site Parking Shuttles
Elevators are available for those passengers with large pieces of luggage. Luggage drop off zones 1-5 are located directly in front of the terminal. Passengers and their luggage should be dropped off at the same zone. Please have all luggage properly tagged prior to arrival to the terminal as per your cruise line’s insructions.
Transportation
The Port of New York and New Jersey occupies a large area in New York Harbor, encompassing the coastline within a 25-mi/40-km radius of the Liberty Statue. The Port (locode USNYC) has a total of three cruise ports - two in NYC (New York) and one in Bayonne (New Jersey). These ports have separate passenger terminals and docking infrastructure. Port Cape Liberty Bayonne cruise ship schedule shows timetable calendars of all arrival and departure dates by month.
As the port continues to grow, they plan on seeing that number rise even higher in the years to come. There is also a public restroom within the parking garage. Passengers with accessibility needs should contact their cruise line for embarkation assistance and for wheelchairs during their cruise, if needed. It is a 10-minute drive between the closest shops and the Cape Liberty Cruise Port.
From what we can tell, they don’t provide parking or transportation to the port, but any of the parking options we covered earlier in the article should work just fine. The Port does offer parking for cruise passengers, but that is going to run you about $25 per day, which can get expensive if your cruise is for a week or more. If you have an oversized vehicle, such as a camper or RV, the price per day is $50 or more. Porter service is available at the Cape Liberty Cruise Port. Cruise line-provided luggage tags should be affixed prior to arrival. Luggage drop-off zones are located directly in front of the terminal.

This is so you don’t have to worry about bridge traffic, and it’ll be easier to get to and from the cruise port. At the Cape Liberty cruise port parking area major credit cards are accepted and parking availability is guaranteed. Keep going straight till you reach the guard gate, then follow the signs for the cruise terminal. By the late 90s, MOTBY was no longer needed for military support and marked for closure, eliminating thousands of civilian jobs. Pre-arranged cruise line shuttles for direct transfer to Cape Liberty Cruise Port are best for guests arriving on the same day of embarkation. This is the most efficient and cost-effective airport transfer.
