Explain why a seven-day cruise might be viewed as either six, seven, or eight days long.A seven-day cruise is typically a Saturd
ay-to-Saturday cruise, but it may be viewed differently as a six, seven, or eight day long cruise according to the actual itinerary of thecruise and when the cruise is scheduled to set sail and/or arrive back.
This is because the final day and some times the first day is not included in the days of the cruise. I have a cruise I am scheduled to go to soon, and it is a technically a 4-day cruise because I leave Friday Afternoon and Arrive Monday Morning, but according to the cruise line it is considered a 3-Day cruise, because since the final day we arrive at 8 a.m. and are required to be off the ship by 10 a.m., the final day isn’t counted into the actual sailing day.
This is because cruisers may not count the days of entry and departure.
Explanation:
Let's say you want to spend time on a cruise and decided to buy a 7-day ticket. in this case, you would like to join the cruise on Saturday and leave on Friday, however, your ticket informs you that you will be on the Saturday cruise this week and will leave on the Saturday of the other week, which totals 8 travel days. This is because some cruises may not consider the days of entering and leaving the cruise. This can happen if you are going to join the cruise on Saturday morning and left the cruise at dawn on Saturday of the other week, as this Saturday you will not spend the entire day on the cruise, it is not counted.
For this reason, a seven-day cruise can be viewed as six, seven or eight days.
