How long will we be docked in each port of call?
Your cruise itinerary – what to expect
We’re excited to welcome you on board! To help you plan your days ashore, here’s a quick guide to how we display port timings on your cruise itinerary.
Where to find your itinerary
You’ll find full details of your itinerary on the relevant cruise page, including approximate arrival and departure times for each port of call.
Why times are approximate
Port timings can vary depending on local conditions and operational needs. That’s why we show time periods rather than exact times — giving you a general idea of when you’ll arrive or depart.
Here’s a handy guide to what those time periods mean:
| Period | Arrive or Depart from |
| early morning | 06:00 - 10:00 |
| late morning | 10:01 - 12:00 |
| early afternoon | 12:01 - 15:00 |
| late afternoon | 15:01 - 18:00 |
| early evening | 18:01 - 20:00 |
| late evening | 20:01 - 23:00 |
| late night | 23:01 - 05:59 |
Please note: These timings are subject to change as your cruise progresses, so we recommend checking your itinerary regularly for updates.
