How do cruises count for the 90 days max. in the EU/Schengen area post-Brexit rule?

[jantoby]

Does anyone know how cruises are counted in relation with the 90 days we are allowed in a rolling 180 days.   Will sea days count?   Can't find a cruise line that has any idea.

The clock starts on the first day you enter the EU and stops on departing the last port. So yes, it includes sea days and also, I would count any part of a day as being a full day. 

 

If you depart and re-enter Schengen zone, the clock stops on the initial departure, they restarts at the next Schengen port.
