Where to find it ​

  • On the Itinerary Day screen, in the Conditions section.
  • On the cruise's Itinerary: expand a day and tap Show forecast.

What it shows ​

The forecast covers the port's location over the coming week, so it's most useful in the days before you arrive and while you're sailing. For a port months away, it tells you what the weather is like there now rather than on the day you'll arrive.

Weather

  • A summary — Clear, Partly cloudy, Rain and so on.
  • Temperature — high and low.
  • Rain chance and Precipitation.
  • Wind, Gusts and Wind direction.

Sea

  • A summary — Gentle, Moderate or Large waves.
  • Wave height, Wave period and Wave direction.
