Why this port's numbers differ
PortDayPlan converts your ship's arrival and all-aboard timestamps into Piraeus, Greece's own clock. Piraeus, Greece sits at 37.9475, 23.6367 in the Europe/Athens IANA timezone, which was UTC+03:00 on 2026-09-18. That offset, not a generic template, is what changes the worked example below from port to port. Enter your own ship arrival and all-aboard timestamps, each with an explicit UTC offset, and pick this port's timezone to see your own plan instead of the illustrative one below.
The example keeps the same balanced-pace buffers used on the homepage demo: 45 minutes to disembark, 30 minutes of outbound travel, a 240-minute activity, 30 minutes back, a 20-minute tender or terminal transfer, and a 60-minute contingency buffer. Verify ship time, port time, all-aboard instructions, and live transport conditions directly. This tool does not guarantee a safe return.
If the UTC offset you enter for Piraeus, Greece does not match its actual offset on your travel date, the planner shows an explicit clock-mismatch warning instead of silently guessing; cruise lines sometimes run on ship time rather than local port time, and this check exists to catch that difference before it costs you time ashore.

Before you leave the ship
Confirm ship time, the all-aboard instructions, and live transport conditions directly. This tool cannot guarantee your return.
Assumptions & limitations
Confirm whether the cruise line uses ship time or port local time. Explicit timestamp offsets determine the calculations.
Schedules, terminal assignments, tender queues, and travel times can change. Capacity is only a schedule-based proxy.
The tool does not fetch live schedules or guarantee that you will make the ship.
Overlap uses half-open time intervals. A ship departing exactly when another arrives does not increase simultaneous capacity.
Peak capacity uses an event sweep across the imported calls, clipped to your own port window.
The cost estimate totals figures you enter. It is not a booking, a fare calculator, or a verified price.
