Wish they had an area where you can sit to wait for your ride. We stood outside in the cold and staff were yelling at people to move.

Thanks for your feedback. Yes some decks have sewer smells from the bathroom floor drains that is sucked up further into the air by the ceiling vents. Just put a towel over the shower floor drain. There's a covered area where people wait for their rides and taxis. The cruise port staff don't work for any of the cruise lines. It's the NYC port authority and they don't want people blocking the exit. They can get very mouthy 😃
