I should add, due to weather, we ended up leaving Bermuda about 18 hours early. Since we were there for a couple of overnights, it was perfectly possible that someone might have booked a night at a resort and not gotten the news of the change. In that case, I'd understand being annoyed, getting back when the ship initially said the return time was, and finding it gone. The late 8 wasn't that...

What I don’t understand is why no one has the same level of vitriol towards the airlines, or the train, if it leaves on time and someone misses it. Why is it suddenly one cruise ships to bend over backwards to help someone who won’t follow the departure time? I heard someone say “Because the cruise line brought them there.” So? If I fly to a foreign land on Delta, and then fail to make it back in time for my return flight, it’s not Delta’s fault because they brought me there. I understand the issues with maybe not having your meds or clothing, but still, shouldn’t that make it more important to you that you make it back? Oh, and I just returned from the NCL Gem. We left a couple in Bermuda. They were late. Why are the late 8 immune from personal responsibility?

For anyone interested, I'm on the Island Princess (why do my fingers keep wanting to type "Italian" or "Indian" instead of "Island" every time I type that?), and thoughts I'd share the song list for anyone interested. Karaoke List - Island Princess August 2023.pdf
