Good to know
Practical notes before your visit.
TimingWeekday mornings, especially at opening, are generally the quietest time to visit Intrepid Museum; summer weekends, holidays, and school-break periods are typically busier. Spring and summer hours are 10:00 AM–5:00 PM Monday–Friday and 10:00 AM–6:00 PM on weekends and holidays, while fall and winter hours are 10:00 AM–5:00 PM daily; last entry is one hour before closing.
EntranceEnter through the Welcome Center at Pier 86, at West 46th Street and 12th Avenue, where digital tickets are scanned after security screening. All bags, backpacks and camera cases are inspected, and timed entry does not remove security checks. Bring the identification associated with the ticket order if required by the ticket terms, and arrive within the stated entry window.
PriceThe available official listing is 11 USD for “4D Film Stories of Intrepid: 4D Experience (GA),” while GetYourGuide lists “NYC: Intrepid Museum Entry Ticket” at 37.79 USD. These are different product titles, so the prices are not a like-for-like benchmark; check the final checkout total and inclusions before booking.
DiscountsChildren aged 4 and under enter free and are excluded from the admission-ticket requirement. All other visitors, including children aged 5 and older, need an admission ticket, and visitors under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Free or reduced admission through programs such as military or veteran benefits, Museums for All, Culture Pass, ASTC, and student benefits must be obtained at the Box Office with the qualifying card or pass and valid photo identification; advance online reservation is not currently available for these tickets.
Planning your visit
The Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum presents USS Intrepid (CV-11) on Hudson River Pier 86, with exhibits about the World War II Pacific Theater. The Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum also displays a flight deck aircraft collection, including the Lockheed A-12 supersonic reconnaissance plane.
An Intrepid general admission ticket includes the Space Shuttle Pavilion ticket entry, where Space Shuttle Enterprise is displayed beneath a dramatic viewing platform. The Submarine USS Growler (SSG-577) offers a separate enclosed visit, but the USS Growler submarine tour can close early and requires visitors to be at least 40 inches tall.
The British Airways Concorde is viewed from outside with admission, while a Concorde guided experience is available as a private tour. The hangar deck interactive exhibits cover aviation and space, and the Intrepid Museum audio tour guide can add self-guided context; a flight simulator ride ticket is an optional paid experience.
For transport, use Pier 86 at West 46th Street and 12th Avenue in the Hell's Kitchen Manhattan waterfront area. The 34th Street-Hudson Yards subway station is a walk away, while the 50th Street subway station (C/E trains) connects to westbound buses; the M50 cross-town bus to 12th Avenue stops closest to the pier. Intrepid Museum daily opening hours are generally 10:00–17:00 on weekdays and 10:00–18:00 on weekends and holidays, with last entry one hour before closing. A New York CityPASS Intrepid admission option is also available through the venue’s ticketing choices.
Before you buy
Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.
- Online tickets are valid only on the selected date and within the 30-minute entry window; arriving early does not allow earlier admission.
- Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable, so a date or time mistake can become a full-ticket loss.
- Bring the identification associated with the ticket order; the name on the order must match the ID shown at arrival.
- Security inspection is part of entry, and the Intrepid Museum has no bag or coat check; large bags, luggage and backpacks are not permitted in the submarine or Concorde.
- Do not rely on a screenshot or printed copy of a digital QR code: the code refreshes every 30 seconds, so you need live access to the mobile ticket wallet.
- Last entry is one hour before closing, which can reduce the usable visit time if you arrive late in the day.
Frequently asked questions
The things people ask most.
Can I use a mobile ticket, and do I need a timed entry slot for Intrepid Museum?
Digital tickets can be shown on a phone. For tickets issued through Intrepid Museum, display the live QR code because it refreshes regularly; timed-entry requirements depend on the product and should be confirmed on the ticket after purchase.
Can I cancel or get a refund for my Intrepid Museum ticket?
Cancellation and refund terms depend on the seller and product. Check the final booking conditions before payment, since no single refund rule applies to both the official listing and the GetYourGuide listing.
What is the difference between buying from the official seller and GetYourGuide?
The official listing is titled "4D Film Stories of Intrepid: 4D Experience (GA)", while GetYourGuide lists "NYC: Intrepid Museum Entry Ticket". Compare the exact inclusion, availability, and final checkout total because the two products are not interchangeable by title alone.
Are bags searched at Intrepid Museum, and is there a bag check?
All bags, backpacks, and camera cases are inspected before entry, and there is no bag or coat check. Bags, strollers, and luggage must stay with you, while large bags and luggage are not permitted inside the submarine or Concorde; a ticket does not bypass security inspection.
What happens if I arrive late for my Intrepid Museum visit?
Late-entry rules depend on the ticket seller and are not stated uniformly for these products. The museum’s last entry is one hour before closing, so allow time for admission and security checks rather than relying on a late arrival.
How do free and reduced admission visitors get tickets for Intrepid Museum?
Free and reduced admission tickets must be obtained at the Box Office by presenting the relevant card or pass and valid photo identification. The official ticketing information says there is currently no advance online reservation process for these categories; children aged four and under and U.S. veterans and military service members with valid ID are listed as free.
Which part of Intrepid Museum is most likely to create an internal wait?
The submarine USS Growler is the main potential bottleneck: its line may close early, and reduced capacity can make waits longer. Entry requires a museum admission ticket, every visitor must be at least 40 inches tall, and visitors must pass through a replica hatch without assistance.
Is Intrepid Museum accessible for visitors using wheelchairs or mobility aids?
Most of Intrepid Museum is wheelchair accessible, including much of the hangar deck, flight deck, and Space Shuttle Pavilion, but the submarine USS Growler and some historic areas require stairs, ladders, or narrow access. Personal wheelchairs are welcome, public wheelchairs are not provided, and lightweight stools can be borrowed from the Information Desk.
