I guess my answer is no, there is no quickie repo. Wouldn't that be a violation of one of those silly acts that are discussed because it would leave one US port and end at another, without visiting a foreign land??:confused:

I believe Aruba is the closest foriegn port that would allow a ship to sail from NYC to FLL.

Bermuda. :) Done all the time. Aruba is way down in the southern Caribbean; definitely not "on the way." :)

probably why the 15 days starts in Quebec then, no Aruba on the itinerary

I'm confused now, I thought that it had to be a distant foreign port and that Aruba was the closest to qualify:confused::confused:

CB is also doing a repo from NY to SJ, on Oct. 23.

Correct.

 

Bermuda is OK on a roundtrip cruise returning to the same port.

Hi all

 

Thank you,

 

the reason I was asking is I am on the Qubec to Ft L sailing but the tours

for New York come up as for In Transit so was wondering if Princess was up to something.

Bermuda isn't a "distant" foreign port? It's 800 miles from NYC and a time zone away. Does "distant" have to be 1,000 miles or more?

In keeping with the insanity of the PSA as a whole, nearby or distant foreign ports have nothing to do with actual distance.

 

From the PSA:

 

Nearby foreign port means any foreign port in North America, Central America, the Bermuda Islands, or the West Indies (including the Bahama Islands, but not including the Leeward Islands of the Netherlands Antilles, i.e., Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao). A port in the U.S. Virgin Islands shall be treated as a nearby foreign port.

 

Distant foreign port means any foreign port that is not a nearby port.
