Shore Excursions show sold out...will they be available on ship?

[whisker2193]

I was wondering if they held back any spaces for purchase on board.  Does anyone have any experience with this?

Which ship? Which excursion are you looking at? When?

There are hundreds and hundreds of excursions so it’s really difficult to answer your question without knowing more. If it’s a boat ride, once they reach the capacity of the boat, that’s probably it. If it’s a beach day, they probably can add another bus to get you there. If there is a meal involved, the restaurant may only be able to serve so many people. Sometimes there are waitlist for short excursions and sometimes there aren’t.

On Reflection.  In Aruba.  DePalm Island is sold out online.  Just wondered if they hold back some spaces for purchase onboard the ship.

I have not heard that shorex spaces are held back for onboard walk ups.  Sometimes additional space is created (e.g. an extra tour bus is added), but that is different.
