I want to schedule a massage at the Krystal PV for 10:30 am PV time. Is that 10:30 am ship time? I am confused!

As a general rule, ship's time on the Pride is one hour behind local time in Vallarta. A 10:30 AM massage at Krystal will be 9:30 on the ship. Since the Pride arrives in Vallarta at roughly 8 AM local time, you will have about 2.5 hours to get off the ship and walk the three or four blocks to the resort. The resort is in the middle of this map: http://www.wikimapia.org/#lat=20.6475634&lon=-105.2421999&z=15&l=0&m=a&v=2

 

We are fast approaching that time of year when daylight savings time will end and the end date is going to be different in the US vs Mexico. DST ends in Mexico at 2 AM on October 26th and it ends at 2 AM on November 2nd in the US.

Here is where I get confused too. I think ship's time on the Pride will match local time in Vallarta if you are sailing the week October 26th.

 

Enjoy!
