EeyoreRN Posted July 26, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Trying to plan what to do in ports, which will be easier if I know where my ship will be docked. Is there a tried and true way to figure this out? Thanks in advance for the tips! Eeyore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mom says Posted July 26, 2018 #4 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Are you asking about the specific pier, or which port/docking facility in port cities with more than 1, like Antigua or Curacao? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Hlitner Posted July 26, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 26, 2018 You can often find pier assignments online. For example, here is a listing for St Thomas where they have two separate cruise ports. http://www.**********/cruise/ship-schedule/ In this case the port they refer to as WI (or West Indies) is the so-called Havensight Port while Crown Bay is located on the other side of Charlotte Amalie. But keep in mind that port assignments can (and do) change and they can change right up until the arrival day. Here is a link to one source for San Juan pier assignments. http://www.cruiseportschedules.com/Cruise_Ship_Schedules/Cruise_Ports/United_States/San_Juan_Puerto_Rico_Cruise_Port_Schedule.html In ports like St Maarten where they have more then one large pier, the actual pier assignments many not be known until the last minute.

Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Basseterre, St. Kitts; Castries, St. Lucia; and Bridgetown, Barbados only have one pier. You will dock at Heritage Quay Pier, St. Johns, Antigua, and likely Port Haven/Havensight in Charlotte Amalie, St.Thomas.

Mcdonaldbam Posted July 27, 2018 #10 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I read a thread a few days ago that Royal Caribbean uses Crown Bay in St Thomas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tatka Posted July 27, 2018 #11 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yes. Royal recently signed a contract with Crown Bay in St Thomas. So if 1 or 2 ships are in port they will dock there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted July 27, 2018 #12 Share Posted July 27, 2018 I read a thread a few days ago that Royal Caribbean uses Crown Bay in St Thomas. Thanks for the update - I thought that was primarily for Oasis class ships. Good to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted July 27, 2018 #13 Share Posted July 27, 2018 Yes. Royal recently signed a contract with Crown Bay in St Thomas. So if 1 or 2 ships are in port they will dock there. We have seen RCI vessels at both ports. Keep in mind that Crown Bay only has room for 2 ships. On our last two visits to the island one of the RCI Oasis Class vessels was always docked at Crown Bay.

Is there a tried and true way to figure this out? Thanks in advance for the tips! Eeyore I am doing a similar exercise for our 2020 WC. I find the best option is to Google the port name + cruise ship schedule. Many worldwide ports provide the ship name, dates and berth information. However, if the port doesn't have a pax terminal and the ship docks at a commercial port, then the actual dock may not be confirmed until the pilot boards.
