Sort of pointless to worry about something you can't control.

 

So very true

This is also my experience. I've missed Belize once, never any other port that I recall, including Roatan, HMC, and Grand Cayman, which are the common ones cruisers posting on CC mentioned getting passed up. That's a total of 1 missed out of 45 week long or more sailings. At an average of 4.1 ports per cruise, that's missing one port out of almost 200. Percentage missed is .05%.

 

Now those #'s are accurate, if my memory serves me well.

 

.5% actually but that's still very good. I've missed 2 out of 88 ports myself and even though those ports were Aruba and Skagway on my first time there I just went and grabbed a beer and a pack of cards and played Spades with my travel buddies. No use shedding a tear over something I can't control.

My calculator says that 1 port missed in 200 = .005 ports missed. But then math isn't my strong suit. :-)

guest services is sometimes funnier than the comedy club. The Captains main concern is the safety of the guests and crew. The decision has nothing to do with money.

I've missed 1 port out of 41 ports, many of those included HMC and Grand Cayman. The one I missed was Grand Turk on a windy day.

That is correct. Now move that decimal spot 2 places to the right and you get the percentage (0.5%).

 

Another way to look at it is 1 out of 100 is 1% so 1 out of 200 is 0.5%.
