For students from Port Chalmers

Ovation of the Seas and Queen Elizabeth are both scheduled to arrive Monday morning, 5 February 2024, disembarking around 7.15 am and 9.15 am respectively.

Students will be back at school so it will likely be much busier than normal on the buses between Port Chalmers and City.

Key info for students:

  • Additional buses between Port Chalmers and Dunedin are being put on morning and afternoon.
  • Buses will leave from Port Chalmers and the Central City Bus Hub with capacity left for stops along Route 14.
  • Cruise ship passengers are being directed to get on and off the bus at Centre City New World so students may wish to board at the Bus Hub in the afternoon.

This is the schedule of extra buses but there will likely be queues and students may be delayed.
