Rare Rewind Posted March 21, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 21, 2017 When planning cruises, I like to get an idea of how many people will be in each port. CruiseTT used to be good at this but looks like it hasn't been updated in over a year. Are there any other sites that list port loads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Capt_BJ Posted March 21, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 21, 2017 CruiseTT used to be good at this but looks like it hasn't been updated in over a year. I was gonna recommend TT and then saw your comment about old info ... I just checked TT and get 2017 info ..... I do NOT say this is the best or most accurate, but it is the one I know that collects in one place>>>> clear your browser temp files, cookies and all that "stuff" .....

Rare Rewind Posted March 22, 2017 Author #7 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Not sure why it matters...the ports only take what they can handle....and you can't change it...so.... Well I've been to ports that have docks for four ships but we were the only ship in port that day. It can make a difference when booking excursions or planning to play it by ear. If I know a Caribbean port is going to be packed, I might avoid the beach and pre-book a tour. If we are on a lone ship, we might wander around town in the less than packed streets. If nothing else, it gives an idea of how long lines will be at certain places. CruiseTT used to be my go-to and had passenger totals. The problem now is that it has data from a while ago and they have no data for any of my upcoming cruises. I have switched over to cruisetimetables to at least get the ships in port (and also used claalaska for our upcoming Alaskan cruise). Of course my day job is Databases and I've been thinking that it might not be that hard to build something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whogo Posted March 22, 2017 #8 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Not sure why it matters...the ports only take what they can handle....and you can't change it...so.... I can't change the port schedule, but I can choose not to take a cruise that visits overcrowded ports. I plan to not visit Half Moon Cay with with a second ship, for instance. I would not take a cruise that visits Santorini on August 16, 2017 with all these ships and passengers: 7am Thomson Dream (1744), Thomson Cruises 7am Rhapsody Of The Seas (2435), Royal Caribbean 7am Celebrity Constellation (2038), Celebrity Cruises 8am MSC Musica (3013), MSC Cruises 12:30pm Costa Deliziosa (3570), Costa Cruises 1pm Norwegian Star (2800), Norwegian http://www.santorini.net/information/cruise-ship-calendar/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is it does matter to the OP. Can't you ever just give the info the OP has asked for?:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
