boleynkid Posted March 4, 2013 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2013 To all the experienced cruisers out there, how often would you say that a ship arrives in port later than its scheduled time please ? I am sure that all sorts of things can happen but perhaps I can get a fair idea from the responses of how often things run on time. We have booked some excursions and a couple are a bit time critical so it would be nice to know. Thanks in advance for your replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlacy1987 Posted March 4, 2013 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2013 I've only been on one cruise so far, but we were actually early to each port. But from my research with excursion, it seems like most companies are flexible and change their times depending on when the ships arrive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdvmd Posted March 4, 2013 #6 Share Posted March 4, 2013 We have always arrived when we were supposed to. The problem isn't having to do with the arrival time but instead when the ship will actually be cleared by the local officials and disembarkation begins.
