I’m glad someone found it clear, all the conversations I overheard in the theater and walking through the Lanai were confused. You’d think with his hourly 7-minute long announcements there would be time to clarify this instead of just overselling Deal or No Deal cards. Whether it’s his third cruise or his last he should know this without batting an eye whether the ship time matches port times. Yes, the communication about the time improved after he mucked up the PV time announcements. I’m sorry if this was confusing to you :).

Yes, I agree that he did it seem to be aware of which time zone each stop was in, and how that differed from the ship time (this was his third cruise on the Panorama IIRC), but does it really matter? The instructions were very clear - stay on ship time (which is on hundreds of digital clocks throughout the ship), not the local time. During the week, Christian’s announcements were very clear - adhere to the ship time, as it may differ from the local time that your phones may sync to. On Monday, a banner appeared on the app reminding us that the ship’s time had moved an hour forward, and that the ship’s time may differ from the local time. On Sunday, the app was very clear that we needed to set our clocks forward an hour. I've been on numerous cruises with time changes and have never seen so much confusion.Īnyway, PV is 2 hours earlier than Pacific time and Cabo/Mazatlan are one hour earlier so when the clocks change after the first sea day PV is just one hour earlier than ship time and Cabo/Mazatlan match. Nothin was made clear in the Fun Times or in the Hub app either. In fact, after the confusion in PV CD (Christian) was asked if ship time would match local time in Cabo (which, it does) and his answer was 'I do not know what the time is there just stay on ship time.' I was shocked at how unhelpful and disorganized he was.

The CD and his staff did a horrible job communicating this and people were confused all week. Just off the Panorama and the ship time does NOT match local time in PV.
