whitsmom Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 We are staying in view of the port the night before we board and would like to get up early and watch her pull into port that morning. My Granddaughters asked if we could see it. I know it will be early, but with all our excitement, it will be worth it! Quote
tiny260 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 I looked on the Cruise Compass for Oasis and they don't say, so I think a local is going to need to answer. It's usually really early, 4:30-5ish though. Quote
RestingBird Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 Based on the Port Canaveral master cruise ship schedule, Oasis is set to arrive at 6 am each Sunday. Quote
baltodave Posted July 4, 2017 Report Posted July 4, 2017 I just returned from Oasis on July 2nd and all I know is that by 6am we were already docked at Port Canaveral. whitsmom and RestingBird 2 Quote

It has been my experience that when an RC cruise ship gets back into home port it is very very early in the am, like 0-dark-30. I'm sure baltodave meant they were at the dock, tied up and secured. Keep in my, when a ship gets back to its home port there is a lot of logistical stuff that has to happen in a short period of time so the ship can make its departure time on schedule. Quote

I'm sure results vary due to an almost limitless amount of factors. Quote

I agree, there are many factors that could move that time forward or backwards. tkltomp 1 Quote
Matt Posted July 5, 2017 Report Posted July 5, 2017 You can also ask the Captain. He is usually around the ship, and might have a more precise time. tkltomp and whitsmom 2 Quote
DunkelBierJay Posted July 5, 2017 Report Posted July 5, 2017 One idea is to use an app called Marine Traffic...you can track ships by name and position...there may be a delay in what you see, but it may help you estimate when to wake up and watch the ship arrive. I have used it successfully in my geekdom. whitsmom 1 Quote
