I have seen the odd reply stating that they appear to be the only ship in port that day. It obviously affects your plans if you are 1 of 4 ships in port ( most will be larger than SS) as opposed to beingthe only one that day. My question is: is there a website that can give you this information or do you have to look at all the cruise websites.
As an aside SS have been very very good regarding our first cruise and up till now I can only comment that they have made the experience exceptional. I give thanks to my Scottish liason lady who helps to define service.

Knowing the number and size of the other ships in each port does help you get prepared and be able to plan accordingly.

Here is one website that has links to many of these ports.

This website has a more complete listing service, but you might need to sign up for one month and pay a small fee to get that basic info.
www.cruisecal.com

If you are checking, as an example for ports in Europe for next summer, they might not have all of that info posted, yet. THANKS! Enjoy! Terry in Ohio

For lots of interesting details, great visuals, etc., from our July 1-16 Norway Coast/Fjords/Arctic Circle cruise experience from Copenhagen on the Silver Cloud, check out this posting. Don’t be shy and feel free to ask any questions of interest. This posting is now over 21,000 views. Appreciate those who have “tuned in”.

Many thanks. As you say no small ships but very valuable nevertheless.It seems I am in luck on "my"days in the Caribbean.

Try www.cruisett.com. It is not complete, but it seems to have most of the larger ships listed.
