59 Cruise Ship Time Zone and Business Day Settings

A cruise ship is a constantly moving property. As a ship moves around the world, the time zone settings for the shipboard systems need to change daily to align with the time zone in which the ship is sailing. A system administrator manually sets the ship’s time zone within the PMS and Simphony.

Oracle recommends closing all checks before changing the time zone and changing the time zone once per day during a slow period of operations (for example, between 2:00 a.m. and 5:00 a.m.).
