Legend: Time in Belize?

[islahopper]

I will be on the Legend in July(7-15) and was wondering what the difference is between ship time and shore time. Also are there mini bars in Cat 8e cabins? TIA. Have a great day.

The two times I have been to Belize the island was 1 hour behind ships time. I was there once in April and once in December. It can be confusing so be sure to keep your watch on ships time. When we were there last December we booked a tour with Coral Breeze and were supposed to meet them at the pier at 9:00. It's a little tough getting off the ship because of tendering. I asked at the pursuers desk about getting off early. They told me the island was two hours behind ships time so it would be no problem meeting our time. Well we got off as soon as we could and found out it was really only an hour difference.

In July the island is 2 hours behind Eastern standard time- If the ship changes time to reflect island time-- I cant help you there.

 

When making excursion plans ask the agent if the time he is giving is it island time or ship time- a 9am excursiontime will be 7am island time.

a mini bar will be set up in the refrigerator-- you pay as you go.

Hello,

Currently Belize is 2 hours BEHIND the Legend. So if it is 12pm on the ship, it is 10am in Belize.

Please becareful to not mix shore time and ships time as we will leave guests behind that are not on the last tender to the ship.

 

See you in July!!!

Could you tell me if the ship changes the time to reflect the change.

Does anyone know why Carnival doesn't change time as it sails? The other cruise lines we have sailed change to the time at the current locale. The other ships leave a notice in the room and also publish time change in the ship's daily paper.

From the CCL cruises I've been on in the past that stop in other time zones, the ship does not change time. They will make it very clear in announcements to stay on ship's time when you are in port. I would imagine that changing the ship's time to match the port's would reek havoc on schedules for dinner, shows, employee schedules, etc.

Never bothered Celebrity, Princess, RCCL or Regent. They all changed to local time.

I have yet to sail with Carnival that changes a time to reflect--

But also have not sailed where there was a 2 hour time difference either.

 

The only ship that changed time for us was the Princess. (it depends on the captain on what he wants to do)

 

My take is that a lot of people probably dont pay attention to the time change and will be back 2 hors earlier--- and complain that we waited all that time for late comers

And I have been on several Carnival cruises where they DID change the time. Guess it depends on the ship and the itinerary.
