Disembarkation Norwegian Escape NYC

We arrive at NYC at 8am on the 21st December after a 12 night Southern Caribbean cruise - just wondering at what time everybody has to be off the ship? I know they give staggered times to disembark but we don't have to be at the Newark Airport until about 1pm for our 3.15pm flight to Calgary. Just wondering if we should get off early and spend a few hours in NYC or should we stay on till about 10am and then start to make our way to the airport? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

You can do a walk off disembarkation (take your luggage off with you) this will give you a few hours to see the great sites of New York during the Christmas season.

Final disembarkation will be between 9:30 and 10:00.

I provided an answer on the East Coast Departures Board thread you started.

All Ashore is about 9:30 a.m. You have to be out of your room between 8:00-8:30, so if you are staying on the ship longer, let the porters take your bags off the ship to the baggage hall.

You always have the option of enjoying a NY city tour ending at the airport.

This past Sunday we docked about 5am, got in line at 6:45am, walked off the ship at 7:15am and were driving home at 7:25

I don't think the NCL NYC tour gives the option of going to Newark Airport though - I've already checked that out.

You’d have to drag your luggage around with you if not on a tour.

The city will be PACKED that day, gridlock alert. I’d try to be the last off of the ship and then head to the airport, it will be a big travel day, get to the airport 3 hours in advance.
