Port times: Go by documents or app?

Hi all,

 

Upcoming cruise next months on HOTS. The app has a different time of arrival and no “all aboard” time — our edocs say arrival at 2pm depart at 9pm. I figure the edocs are probably right, but wanted to check!

You really will not know for sure until day of. Times are usually published in the Cruise Compass for that day, but I have had an all aboard time change after publication.

I'd go by the docs.  There have been more than a few reports of inaccurate info in the app.

That’s what I was thinking too — looked more on the app and it said that one excursion will go until 8:15, which support a 9pm sail. 🙂 Thank you!

That is actually "a thing".  I had an excursion in Bermuda that went "until 3:30" when 3:30 was the all-aboard time.  The tour operator assured us that there were six such excursions that day.  We were all back on board the ship before sailing.  No problems at all.
