I am considering an NCL Panama canal cruise which departs Fuerte Amador at 11:59pm. The ship docks that morning at 6am, so is it reasonable to expect my embarkation to begin around 12pm. For sightseeing purposes or to plan flight arrival times, how late might one be able to embark? Any estimates for taxi time/cost between PTY and the port? Thank you.
