NJ7 Posted October 1, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Booked this cruise a few months ago and itinerary included a stop in Bermuda from 11am-6pm. Was just on MyNcl looking to see what type of shore excursions there were (even though the trip is still a ways away) - and I saw under the Vacation Summary Bermuda is now scheduled from 11am-3pm. 4 hours - really - thinking maybe this is one of those fabulous NCL web glitches and when they updated all of the standard BA Bermuda cruises that is one off itinerary got grabbed by mistake. Hope that's the case since I am taking my 11 year old niece for her birthday which just happens to be the day in Bermuda - not sure what we could do in Bermuda with an 11am arrive and 3pm leave time. Basically we could get off the boat - walk down to look in one shop - say ok that's Bermuda and get back on the ship for a 3pm sail away. Of course when I called to inquire the rep was looking at the same thing I was - so as far as they know it is 11-3 - holding out hope this is a glitch.

LrgPizza Posted October 1, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2015 (edited) I just looked at that. Wow! That's hardly worth getting off the ship, since you'd have to be back on 3.5 hours later. I notice you're on a special 9 day sailing... A couple months ago, the regular itineraries for the Breakaway sailings to Bermuda (when they stay 3 days), were all changed to a 3pm departure. I wonder if this one really changed too, or if it is just wrong on the website? If I were you I'd make a call, or a few calls and compare answers. When they originally changed departure times on the website, I know there were some errors on the posted cruise info for other ports and other ships, that were eventually fixed. So it's worth digging further. Edited October 1, 2015 by LrgPizza Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonyte Posted October 1, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 1, 2015 There have been a lot of cuts in port times lately across the board - presumably for the companies to save on fuel costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past, we have went to Black Bay Beach our last day but even though it is close, a 3:00 pm departure, I would want to be back on the ship by 1:30 pm. I guess I could squeeze out one last beach day but those couple of extra hours could have helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJ7 Posted October 1, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted October 1, 2015 Called a few times and everyone is saying this is only 3.5 hours port time. Not sure what we can do in 3.5 hours - guess I am saving money on shore excursions that day :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, at least you have a long cruise to some cool places, even if there isn't any time to enjoy Bermuda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
