sooner33 Posted February 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Sorry i am asking this , The ships i have been on always stayed on East Coast time when cruising from Florida Anyways when we are in Grand Cayman it says from 8am to 4pm I am thinking of booking a tour outside of MSC but when i was talking to them they told me that Grand Cayman is on CST time ( 1 hour earlier ) so we figured the 8am ship time would work I spoke to MSC and got 2 different answers , when the ship is in Grand Cayman are we there on port time 8am to 4pm CST or Ship Time 8am to 4pm EST Any help would be greatly appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravelinGert Posted February 6, 2018 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2018 Most tours will tell you if they will wait for people off the ships. That is probably the best way to handle this issue. Most tours will but for some it isn't possible. We are going outside the cruise line for our excursion in Cozumel and they even told us if our ship skips the port due to weather or other reasons our deposit is good for any available date for one year. Great deal for us since we will be in Cancun in October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyjeremiah Posted February 6, 2018 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2018 I just got off the divina and ship time changed to matches port time. It should be the same with the other msc ships as well. The ports are scheduled that way so if you’re in grand cayman from 8-4 it should be 8-4 on both ship and port time since they will be the same. Hope that helps.

kerryincork Posted February 6, 2018 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2018 When I am going ashore I usually confirm with security the time and make sure my time piece matches. I have often seen big clocks at the exit as well. One mistake that happened to me was I didn't turn roaming off of my phone. So when I went ashore my phone updated the time without me knowing. Luckily there was really bad weather in port so the tenders were running slow and we still managed to catch the last one.
