Celebrity Caribbean Ship's Time Vs Local

[ORV]

I haven't been to the Caribbean in a while and only once on Celebrity. I'm having a little time confusion with tour operators on our upcoming Feb trip to Cozumel & Roatan.

 

Specifically my question is this;

 

On the short Caribbean sailings does Celebrity change onboard time to match the local times in each port or do they keep the time of the embarkation port?

 

In the past all Celebrity ships I've been on change as the time zones change but I'm not sure on these 5 day Caribbean itineraries.

 

I think the confusion stems from Carnival not changing their times in these ports and the local tour operators are used to that.

The vast majority of the time, on Celebrity, ship time matches local time.

 

It is, however, a Captain's choice, and there have been a few cases where ship time doesn't match local time.

 

If you tell us the date of your cruise and the locations you'll visit it's easier to determine what is the most likely scenario.

Thanks.

Just off the Constellation last week, and yes, the ship did change to local time in the early am prior to arriving cozumel and changed back after leaving cozumel to EST
