No tendering at any of the ports.

We sailed the Victory in Feb this year and docked at every port. However, as I understand it that's not a guarantee. Depending on how many ships are in port some ports that are traditionally docking ports require some ships to tender. I don't know how they decide which ships get to dock and which tender. I wish I did, because I'm sailing the Victory again next April and cruisett is showing 6 ships in St. Thomas the day we'll be there.

Since Victory arrives in STT at 7am, its almost assured to have a space at the dock. In all the years Destiny and Victory have sailed the SC, it has never had to tender.

Is that really how it works at these ports? First-come first-docked? I guess it makes sense, but I would have assumed there'd be more of a business reason behind it. Like the highest paying cruise companies get to dock or something like that.

There is space for 6 ships to dock in St Thomas.
