Best Times to Book a Skyline Cruise

There’s no bad time to book a Skyline cruise.  No matter when you go, you’ll have an unforgettable trip and spectacular views of one of the greatest cities in the world and see iconic sights throughout the voyage. You’ll enjoy the comfort and luxury of our three-deck vessel, Skyline Princess and satisfy your appetite by feasting on our dinner and brunch buffets. You can see the sights, catch up with friends or relatives or party on our dance floor. There’s nothing like a dinner cruise in NYC by Skyline Cruise, but we want you to know about the best of the best times to book your trip.

Planning a Late Summer Skyline Cruise

One of the most special times to cruise with Skyline is right now. As we head towards the end of summer and eventually transition into fall, there’s a good chance that you’ll experience some of the best weather of the year in New York City. Temperatures which can average in the low to mid-80s in the summer will drop to the mid to upper 70s, according to Accuweather.

That means you likely won’t see excessive heat, but it will still be warm enough to feel the refreshing late summer breezes on our outdoor decks. But if the weather isn’t to your liking, don’t worry. Skyline Princess is designed to sail rain or shine. The vessel is fully climate controlled and we sail all year round.

A late summer cruise can give you an up-close look at some of the most famous sights New York City has to offer. You’ll leave from the World’s Fair Marina in the shadow of Citi Field, home of the 2015 National League Champion New York Mets and Flushing Meadows-Corona Park, the site of the historic 1939 and 1964 World’s Fairs. You’ll sail under the Robert F. Kennedy Triborough Bridge and cruise up Manhattan’s East River viewing such renowned landmarks as Gracie Mansion, the United Nations, the Chrysler Building, the Empire State Building, the Brooklyn Bridge, and One World Trade Center, also known as the Freedom Tower. And of course, we’ll go into New York Harbor and give you a breathtaking look at the Statue of Liberty.

Have Your Event on the Skyline Princess

Another great time to make a reservation with Skyline Cruises is anytime you have a special occasion. We offer unforgettable wedding cruises that are customized to your satisfaction. We’ll work with you to make your wedding, civil union, or engagement party everything you dreamed it would be.

We also do private charter cruises for Bar and Bat Mitzvahs.  Skyline Princess is a floating catering hall with a dance floor, a space for a DJ and a photo booth. We also do corporate cruises, fundraisers, and school events. Whatever you’re planning, you can make it memorable with a Skyline Cruise.

Memorable Holiday Cruises

It may be late summer, but we’d be remiss if we didn’t mention another great time to book a Skyline cruise and that’s when it’s time for our holiday cruises. Our Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day and 4th of July Cruises have passed, but New Year’s Eve will be here before you know it. Our New Year’s Eve Dinner Dance Party Fireworks Cruise is one of our most popular events and you’ll want to book it soon.

There doesn’t have to be a reason to book a voyage with Skyline Cruises, but we can think of a bunch of great reasons to come on board and we bet you can think of some too. We’re the place to go for small getaways or big events. Contact Skyline today.
