Answer 2

Yes you will and it is great to see the Statue from the water!

I cruised from NY on Carnival and I think the ship actually slows down so all can get a great view.

Answer 3

You are, if your leaving from Manhattan.

If your leaving from Brooklyn, you may not.

Answer 4

Yes, the Statue of Liberty will be on the right (starboard) side of the ship as you leave New York.  I researched this myself before booking a cruise on Carnival (this August).

Answer 5

Hi!  I took a Princess cruise that left from New York and also went to San Juan as the first stop.  Yes, you do pass the Statue of Liberty and can take pictures.  I would recommend getting a good spot on the deck to take pictures as you go by, because everyone has the same idea.  The cruise that I went on went to San Juan, St. Maarten, St. Thomas, and Grand Turk.  It was awesome!!  I hope you have a great time.  Take lots of pictures.
