You are welcomed - you will find 100X details, reviews, insider's tips & info on Cruisecritic, FT's equivalent.

NYC has 3 cruise terminals, MCT or Manhattan Cruise Terminal, BCT or Brooklyn Cruise Terminal and Cape Liberty, NJ (where Royal Caribbean is homeported) Hotels in NJ also have stay/park & cruise packages with free shuttles to Cape Liberty, or extended parking at the ferry terminal in Hoboken, across the Hudson River - so there are other options on where to park. For a Family of 4, rooftop pier parking in Manhattan - while somewhat expensive - is well worth it for many, except this winter - where some returned to find a plowed outdoor parking lot & their vehicles snowed it

We took this from our balcony on the Carnival Splendor last September with the BA docked next to us - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/...d/P9220053.JPG

This is a very useful link to all you don't know about these mega ships - enjoy reading it - http://beyondships.com/NorwegianBreakaway.htm

Canadian school systems are out for the summer earlier than us here, so you might still find some bargains for this June, although I saw that many of the Haven categories are already soldout, and if released due to further upgrade (via the "Upsell Fairy" as they are known) - they are often gone in a matter of days, if not hours, being highly sought after. You shouldn't have difficulties getting the expert help of a TA familiar with cruiseline bookings as they will earn a decent fee, go find one & use their "free" services.
