Family of four will be on Liberty of the Seas next week from Cape Liberty NJ (Bayonne) cruise port. Our flight is not until 2pm at EWR, so I am considering checking out between 10a-11a, which is the latest time for checkout on RCI's website. My thoughts are we can avoid the early checkout/customs rush, hail a Uber/Lyft quicker, and get out of the port faster. Thinking that it's more pleasant to wait in our cabin than the airport. In the past, we've always checked out at the assigned time (around 7a-8a) and herded like cattle through the ship in into terminal. Since my flight is not until later and the airport is not far, I thought this might work? Has anyone checkout late? And if so, do you avoid the rush and chaos?
