nc_cruiser1 Posted October 3, 2015 #1 Share Posted October 3, 2015 We are booked on Equinox in December. The itinerary shows the ship arriving in St Maarten at 8:00am. We are interested in an excursion (not through Celebrity) that departs at 8:30. If the ship follows local time, we should be OK, But if they follow US ET, this won't work. Does anyone know?

rogfam Posted October 3, 2015 #2 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Did you check to see if you dock or tender? If you tender don't expect to get off the ship quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowzBtlr Posted October 3, 2015 #3 Share Posted October 3, 2015 It will be 8:00AM Local Time (-4UTC) or one (1) hour ahead of the US East Coast Time Zone. This will also be the ship's time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMapp Posted October 3, 2015 #4 Share Posted October 3, 2015 You will not tender in St. Maarten. The ship's clocks will be set to local time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClaudiaB Posted October 3, 2015 #5 Share Posted October 3, 2015 The independent excursion people know that sometimes ships are late. Just get off as soon as you can and they should be there for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az_tchr Posted October 3, 2015 #6 Share Posted October 3, 2015 Ship's time is always local time except on a TA cruise where they change one hour every night for six days in a row. Claudia is correct. Independent tour companies know you do not all disembark at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
