Aussie Jeep Posted September 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 16, 2022 What are the issues by leaving a cruise early? Our cruise goes to Trieste, Italy, when it ends but we want to get off two days earlier in Bari, Italy I cant see that this would be a problem Has anyone done this ?

Rare Morgsmom Posted September 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2022 You will need to make arrangements to do so. It's not an issue in Europe but you need to be accounted for on the ship. Imagine if you got off and then the ship was being held waiting for you to return at the end of the day 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KINGBOBOFTHENORTH Posted September 19, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 19, 2022 We did a cruise out of Germany last year but departed the ship in Estonia. Both are EU countries. We informed the Reception desk that morning that we needed to return early back to Germany because of personal business. They made us sign a form that said that we were voluntarily ending the cruise and that we were not entitled to any compensation because of the cruise ending early (for us). So I doubt you would have any issue departing your cruise early. Just inform Reception. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Shippy Posted September 20, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 20, 2022 We wanted to do that once on a U.S. cruise. We were told we could not because they did not have any customs people scheduled that day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your itinerary needs to be valid at your final stop, or the cruise line could be subject to a hefty fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
