Does anyone know if San Juan will be participating in the new starting date of March 11? In the past daylight savings started around the last week in April.

If you are cruising that that sunday don't forget you have to be at the airport one hour earlier than normal.

Also, if you are presetting your light timers around your house prior to leaving--remember to adjust for the daylight saving switch.

Woo hoo! Longer days, later sunsets!

Per one of my co-workers, SJ does not participate in Daylight Savings. They are a U.S. Territory, not a U.S. State.

I'm pretty sure Cassandra is correct, but once you get on the ship, you may have to rely on the elevators to remember what day it is, much less keep track of ship's time vs Island time. Have a great crusie.

Yes, you will have to change your watch & such. My co-worker lived in PR & just recently moved back there. Lucky girl! She missed the brutal winter here.
