Pope Francis' trip to America enters its last leg Saturday as he leaves New York City for Philadelphia.

Like much of his trip, the Pope's morning is packed, starting with a 9:30 a.m. arrival by plane and a Mass at Cathedral Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul just an hour later.

The Pope's visit continues through Sunday. Special New Jersey Transit tickets for the Atlantic City an River lines remained available heading into the weekend, though normal tickets will not be accepted.

Parking passes remained available for the Camden Waterfront, for people planning to then cross into Philadelphia via PATCO, via ferry, or by walking across the Ben Franklin Bridge (which will be closed to vehicles until noon Monday).
