Fleet Week in New York City begins on Wednesday, May 26 and lasts through Tuesday, June 2, 2010. There are many military demonstrations, performances and events throughout Fleet Week, as well as the opportunity to see sailors all around New York City. The USS Intrepid Sea, Air and Space Museum hosts many events during Fleet Week making it a popular destination with visitors, but it is also a worthwhile destination throughout the year.

Hotel room prices seem absurdly high. What are the options at under $100 per night that still allow access to NYC? Is it time for boarders again, maybe in one of the buroughs?
Here is something I found on Craigslist just now:

Fleet week was a great experience and every American should take the opportunity to tour a ship and not only see but FEEL what it’s like to be in the Navy. I wrote a blog about my experience if anyone’s interested: http://jeffowick.blogspot.com/2009/05/fleet-week-in-new-york-city.html
Can anyone tell me how to get to those ships? Where are they exactly harbored? I’m gonna to go there tomorrow but got confused is that on Staten Island? Was hoping to see them somewhere on Manhattan..
Thanks
The ships are in 2 locations –
Manhattan – Pier 88, 48th St/West Side Highway
Staten Island – Stapleton Pier, SI
Great experience for the whole family. The sailors and marines onboard love what they do and provide great information about the equipment, vehicles, helicopters, etc. Ask lots of questions! You’ll see both men and women in uniform so it’s good for the girls to see women supporting our country as well.
Fleet Week (my favorite holiday) begins on Wednesday MAY 25, 2011. Daisy May cowgirls will be passing out free beer coupons outside of The Intrepid. WATCH OUT!!!!!
