elmtree Posted March 20, 2005 #1 Share Posted March 20, 2005 We will be on the Diamond Princess May 14, this year..Is there any way to find out if we have to tender in any of our ports? I have seen the ship schedules to each of our ports and it seems there will be at least 3 or 4 ships in each port, but was wondering if the tendering information was know? Thanks...

musicmansmom Posted March 20, 2005 #2 Share Posted March 20, 2005 try surfing the net with your port name and dock or pier schedules. that might bring up a link that shows who docks or tenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted March 20, 2005 #3 Share Posted March 20, 2005 The only port you need to worry about is Ketchikan. Princess has it's own dock in Juneau and with your ship being the largest ship in the fleet - it will definitely dock in Juneau. There is plenty of room in Skagway for your ship - I would look at finding a pier schedule for Ketchikan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
musicmansmom Posted March 20, 2005 #4 Share Posted March 20, 2005 i just found the ketchikan schedule at www.portschedules.com. you have to have adobe to see how the ships will be put in place. i found you there on the 13th of may docked at #1 next to the visitors center. great spot for getting off and walking right to the shops and things. no tendering for you :D .

srpilo Posted March 20, 2005 #7 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Sorry to burst your bubble...:mad: but the information about Ketchikan on "Portschedule.com" is from 2004, so further investigation about Ketchikan Pier location and space for the Diamond is still needed..

Starbuck1 Posted March 20, 2005 #8 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Great info on which ships are in port on the same days. Unfortunately, I could not find details on which vessels get to dock and which anchor & tender. But hey, maybe I missed something! http://alaska.nwcruiseship.org/port_schedules.cfm?menuId=9 Starbuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judynorth Posted March 20, 2005 #9 Share Posted March 20, 2005 On our itinerary given to us by our TA we were listed as tendering in Ketchikan. We will be on the Coral the same week that you are going. I would assume that if your itinerary doesn't say tendering then you will not have to tender. We were on the Diamond last year at the same time and did not have to tender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judynorth Posted March 20, 2005 #11 Share Posted March 20, 2005 Thanks. I hope that is the case with us. We have little enough time in Ketchikan as it is. I'd hate to spend a lot of time tendering. I have read that it goes quickly though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
