We had Grand Suite 1268 and loved it. We had sailed that cat couple times 10 years ago on Voyager. Grand Suite gets Gold Card for entry and perks during cruise. Cabin space and balcony room excellent.
We arrived at Bayonne about 11:30, spent 1/2 hour crawling in car line until at baggage drop off area. Baggage drop off easy then drive around corner into long term parking $19 a day. The lots could use some pothole and cleanup work but were okay. Close enough to walk to ship area.
Through security, they were strict took two cans of beer away from guy in front of us. Next as GS small room on left for priority desk. 5 minutes we were on bus shuttle and on way to ship. Really wish they would expend terminal and do away with those buses. High step and crowded but at least only like 2 minute ride.
You pay for it, no doubt, but suite space and perks such as private concierge lounge and complimentary pre dinner cocktails, priority boarding, reserved ares etc are nice if willing to pay the price.
