How to read a crowd calendar
People in port
Every ship’s guests at standard occupancy plus its crew, added up for the day. Ships without a published capacity are listed but not counted.
Crowd level
Each port is compared with its own typical day, so a busy day in Key West and a busy day in Miami both read as Busy, at very different numbers.
Turnaround days
When a cruise ends and the next one boards, the terminal handles both groups. Expect queues, full garages and busy roads on those days.
