Manhattan Cruise Ship Terminal — Know Before You Go
The Manhattan Cruise Terminal (formerly the New York Passenger Ship Terminal) is located in Hell’s Kitchen, along 12th Avenue in Manhattan. It serves as the homeport for many of the world’s most renowned cruise lines and is one of the most modern passenger ship facilities in the U.S.
Address: 711 12th Ave, New York, NY 10019
Phone: (212) 641-4440
Passengers (2016): 1,025,534
Opened: 1935
The Manhattan Cruise Terminal features modern, adjustable gangways and expanded pier aprons for faster boarding and disembarking. Separate embarkation and disembarkation levels reduce congestion, making the experience smoother for travelers and ground transportation alike.
For travelers arriving by car, van, or bus, it’s best not to arrive before 11:00 AM, as terminal operations and ship preparations may delay entry. For group transfers, we coordinate directly with port staff to ensure smooth drop-offs and pick-ups.
All cruise passengers must present appropriate identification and travel documents as required by their cruise line and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Please check with your specific cruise operator for details before your trip.
