Yep, International Date Line is the difference per one of hstybuf's articles above! I can't believe the frenzy for these cruises though. Everyone on the dis said the Aug 08 repo cruises sold out within hours...whole cruise sold out? I mean we're talking about 18 months away here. I can't believe it. And, the pricing was changing on people as they booked, sometimes jumping in the thousands. I got lucky that I got right online and booked w/out any problems.

Also, does anyone know much about possibility of hurricanes on west coast?
We don't do hurricanes on the west coast! :D actually there are a few but are kinda rare and since they move north from panama and then west away from Mexico...not near the worry as on east coast
but if you like disasters we have plenty of earthquakes, mudslides and fires to entertain you!
You are right, but unfortunately, Hurricane Sergio altered our cruise in November. I think it was the 5th latest hurricane recorded on the Mexican West Coast; a real fluke.
