gospelle Posted October 19, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Dec 12 Quantum of the Seas does an overnight port of call to Vila, Vanuatu, arriving 7am on Dec 15 departing 7pm on Dec 16. For those who have had experience with any port of call serviced by a tender that overnighted (ideally in Vila, Vanuatu) I'd love to know how they do the tenders at night. Are they 24hrs and if not, what was the schedule like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted October 19, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) The overnight tendered ports, and non-tendered, usually have operations going until at least midnight. I seem to remember it was not available during the wee hours, but started up again 6-7 am. It may be different now. P.S. Loved Vanuatu. P.S.S See if you can get over to Mystery Island; it's a tiny jewel. Edited October 19, 2023 by pcur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdwkings Posted October 21, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 21, 2023 Can confirm that the Quantum did not offer 24 hr/overnight tender operations on our overnight in Lahaina this spring. Service stopped at Midnight and started back up at 6 am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy to get port advice from any who've been. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The waves crashing over the coral reef edging the lagoon are hypnotizing. Edited October 22, 2023 by pcur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
