Good morning, I will be cruising into St. Thomas on April 4th for vow renewals. The itinerary says it docks at 11:00 but Island time is 12:00 noon. I can't seem to get an answer from my travel agent if the ships time(EST) is the same as Island time (AST). Does anyone know? I had set up my vows to be at 11:30 but to play it safe changed it to 1:00 pm
ISLAND TIME. Thank you for any information you can share
