NeedToChill Posted February 7, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 7, 2023 Hello, I am sure this has been asked before, but the search feature is not helping out, so... Is there a standard time people are supposed to be back on board prior to departure? Like, one hour before departure time? Or does it tend to vary by port. As I recall from previous cruises, it tends to vary. But I am curious if Oceania has any particular policies around this that anyone knows of? What I'm looking at are train times to and from various ports, for self organized sight seeing. So it's obviously important not to cut the times too close! --Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LHT28 Posted February 8, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 8, 2023 it will usually be noted in the Currents & by the exit when leaving the ship but as a general rule it is 30 mins prior to sailing time allow extra time when tendering JMO 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete_coach Posted February 8, 2023 #6 Share Posted February 8, 2023 (edited) It is very important to know what time it is at the port you are at. During a cruise, you do change time zones. Before you get off the ship, make sure your watch is on the same time as the ship LOL (do not rely on your phone time as it may not automatically change) Edited February 8, 2023 by pete_coach 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
