Legend & QM2 sailing 5/7 - traffic problem?

[blandadi]

Do you think it will be a traffic problem since the Legend & Queen Mary 2 are leaving on the same day? Legend at 4PM & QM2 at 5:45 PM

Its NY. What6 do you think, especially if you are running late yourself.

on our last cruise out of NYC, there were 2 other ships there that day...the grand princess and a celebrity ship...besides us on the legend....

we left first, then about a half hour later, the celebrity ship pulled out, then another half hour later, the grand....it was neat to see the other ships leave port....and then follow us out of NYC harbor.....

oops!! forgot to answer your original question...there was TONS of traffic!! try to get there early...we decided to drive around that morning for awhile since we knew we couldn't board yet....well, by the time we were ready to park the car and board, there was a line you would not believe!!

just be prepared...have patience...and realize you will be on the ship soon!! http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif
