Creator's Key Takeaways

we sailed our last princess East Coast cruise out of New York City it was really exciting we've never been there before

the views here are more than great they're iconic plus you sail out with grand views of the Statue of Liberty making this one hell of a sale outport

the facility is clean the staff friendly and the exit sign hilarious

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use the B61 bus from downtown Brooklyn for public transport to the port
Take the ferry from Pier 11/Wall Street for an overnight stay in Manhattan
Arrive early to navigate the long security line at the terminal
Bring crisp bills for porters to handle luggage efficiently

YouTube Video Description

Calling all East Coast cruisers! This video dives into the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal in Red Hook, Brooklyn - your gateway to incredible Princess Cruises (and more!) departing right from NYC! There are several options to get there, including bus and the Pier 11 / Wall Street Ferry. We also take a quick stroll in the Red Hook neighborhood, with a great slice at Mark's Red Hook Pizza. A great taste of New York City! We also discuss our experience flying into Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR). #brooklyn #newyork #newyorkcity #princesscruises #cunardline #eastcoast
