uncle_sav 09:22 UTC 05 Feb 2009 | Why are you so worried ? The ships arrive at 5.30 am and leave at 6.00 pm. They are extremely punctual and are only ever in town for a day. The only change to Vila when a ship is in is a little extra crowding in the centre of town. Avoid the tourist shops for a day and you will be fine. The cruise passengers don't even go to the market or the beaches near Vila. Buses are still very easy to find. If you really must know ask P & O whose ships Pacific Dawn and Pacific Sun are the main visitors. | 2
