Dawn passengers left “stranded” on African island
sammee replied to WonderMan3's topic in Norwegian Cruise Line
Wow, unbelievable. Just saw this too. They created their own situation but yet they insist on finger pointing and blaming NCL. -
Cruise starts tomorrow, FTTF not sold out
sammee replied to tidecat's topic in Carnival Cruise Lines
Same here with the Sunshine end of April. Over 10 available. It used to be with this timelime and earlier, they were sold out. Only thing you could do was hightail it up to the excursions desk when you boarded and hope for the best. My husband wants a cabana, but I'm having a hard time with this 700 ticket. -
I don't blame you, I have one guy I used for local parties and gatherings, but he retired.I used to be a dispatcher back in the 90s. We had it going on than, but not like we do now. Technology made it easier.

Driver's license vs passport for MSC Bahamas cruise
sammee replied to Tallyfins's topic in MSC Cruises
No passport at all, not even her expired. It worked. The luggage guys said they work but not 100% yet, whatever that means. We were prepared for her to go to that line.. It took 2 tries before the green light went on for the recognition. The docs were only inspected day one. I thought the same as you. So, that must mean they've been working on it. -
Driver's license vs passport for MSC Bahamas cruise
sammee replied to Tallyfins's topic in MSC Cruises
Just seeing this post now. I was on the 1/26 cruise. I had a passport, sister in law did the license & birth certificate. It was fine and when we left the ship, the following week, facial recognition worked for the birth certificate too. So we blew right through there. That made one of the workers happy who was helping us with the luggage. He said it was a 50/50 chance when leaving with it, lol. -
Gotta laugh at some of the complaints. You just have to wonder if they read what they typed.

I sailed the Jan 26- Feb 4 cruise. I'm also Jersey Shore area. We ended up getting a family member to take us. We are in Manchester Twp. The prices of legit uber/taxi/shuttles were not a money saver for us. There were a lot of cheap car services, but they aren't legit. People are using their private cars, making up business cards and fb businesslike pages to advertise, some trying to say they are x-uber drivers to show experience. My sister in law wanted me to go with one. As soon as I looked it up, I knew. Problem with that is, if they get pulled over, you aren't going to make your trip. If they get in an accident, insurance can say no payment. Modern day gypsy cabs, lol. It's your choice, but I figured I should say something since there's so many of them in our area.

I'm not sure what they are doing, but take it while you can. They were both were the same as of this past November. I had a cruise booked on Venezia and was pricing out my options, but I ended up having to cancel Venezia. I'll definitelyl keep that in mind if I book her again. I had a casino comped for Meraviglia for my 1/26 cruise. I was considering driving even with the higher price, but I wasn't sure if I could get us back home due to an eye issue that I get treatments for.

Got home my cruise just on time to play catch up and read your review. As always fantastic so far. How long did it take you to get from Kingsland to Fort Lauderdale? We've considered doing this run, but haven't as of yet. I love how you take pics of the signs going in. Our GPS is not always on point.

I think you may be on to something with acoustics. I just got off this ship. Buffet sounded like a high school cafeteria, dining rooms not much better. I had some guy behind our table with a laugh that overcame everything. He was the only one I could hear, I guess he was trying to compete with the noise. I couldn't hear my table mate. She couldn't hear me. Our cruise was only 2300 from what others were saying compared to the week before.
