Ports of Call

Ports of call are the stops the ship makes along the way — the places you'll actually step off and explore for a day, in between the departure and arrival ports.

Spelling and naming variants of the same city are merged in the filter panel (for example, "Cozumel" covers every way it appears across cruise lines), so picking one port catches every cruise that visits it, however the cruise line spelled it.

When you pick more than one port of call to filter on, cruises are scored by how many of your chosen ports they actually visit — pick three ports and a cruise hitting two of them scores about two-thirds on that question, rather than being treated as a total miss. Excluding a port hides (or heavily penalizes) any cruise that stops there.
