⚓ Ship time on Independence of the Seas
Like every cruise ship, she keeps ship time — normally the time zone of her departure port — for the entire voyage, even when docked somewhere that uses a different one. Your phone does not: it switches to local time the moment it finds a foreign cell tower.
That mismatch is the single most common reason passengers miss all-aboard. Read how ship time works, or let ShipTime track both clocks for you — it works with no signal at all.
About Independence of the Seas
Facilities include an interactive water park, a two-storey theatre seating 1,200, an ice rink, a rock climbing wall, a FlowRider surf simulator and the first trampolines at sea.
