Time change

[donnysmom]

Is there a time change in Bermuda? I'm in Eastern Daylight Time zone.

Yes; Bermuda is 1 hour ahead of East Coast; so, if it's 12:00 noon East Coast, it's 13:00 or 1 PM in BDA.

Or put simply:

 

East coast = work time:mad:

 

Bermuda = vacation time:D

 

Maybe not the conversion you were looking for but it's what's getting me through the next nine days!!;)

So when the ship docks in Bermuda, it will be Bermuda time? ....I guess so,duh!...

Some ships that do a day stop don't bother with the time change, especially if they are continuing to a port in the Eastern Time zone. They will tell you on board. The good news is since Bermuda is 1 hour ahead, if you look at a clock while in Bermuda and rush back to the ship, you will be an hour early not late :)

 

For those ships that go on the seven day cruises and stay a few days, you typically advance the clocks the first night on the ship (you'll lose an hour's sleep, but that's OK, it's a sea day and you can sleep in. ;) On the return, you will go back one hour the last night on board, giving you an extra hour to party! It all works out!
