lelmorrow

Just wanted to thank everyone on this forum for all the help and information you provided during your cruise. This forum was a lifesaver for me during these uncertain times knowing my parents were okay. Safe journeys home to all of you!

lelmorrow...I just spoke to Guest Services and your parents are off the ship, seeing the town.  When they return, they will be directed to Guest Services to collect a copy of your post and hopefully get back to you.  Assume that that all is well as they are out and about.😉

Thanks again for this. Guest Services gave my mom a complimentary phone call when they got back on the ship and I chatted with her for a few minutes. They're fine, besides the GI illness going around and seasickness.  

I told my mom about how a crew member had been to Japan in the past 14 days which is why no one was allowed off at St. Thomas Island (https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/22587-virgin-islands-deny-grandeur-of-the-seas-call.html). The lady at guest services swore up and down that this was a lie. Not sure what to believe, but I hope everyone aboard stays safe and healthy for the remainder of the trip. Thanks again for your help!!

Hi lelmorrow,

Printed pict of your parents  - taking it to Guest Srevices to ask them to get in touch with you. Will also BOLO

Thanks, it's not an emergency on my end and maybe I'm just overreacting...I appreciate this though. I will pay for their wifi just to give me and our family peace of mind!

When they do contact you, tell them to talk to their MDR staff - they'll know where to find free wifi in each port.

I appreciate your help. I have all our family asking about them now and I have zero answers to give other than I know the exact location they're in.

They don't need to come here - they could simply ask on the ship at guest services or other cruisers to help them - lots of places they could turn for help.A bit late now but obviously try to get a comms plan in place before they cruise or go anywhere for that matter and practice it at home.

Their plan was to contact us when they were at port/on island. I understand you all haven't been able to get off the ship until today though. I just wish I could tell them to pay for the wifi so they could contact us!

Welcome to CC.

 

You can also post this in the roll call thread for their sailing. If needed, RCI has a number where folks on the ship can be contacted in an emergency. I would assume if there was an issue, they would have a way to contact you. They could simply be out about having fun.

Thank you, Biker19. Where do I find the roll call thread? They're not very tech savvy and wouldn't be on here. I appreciate you responding. I suppose no news is good news. 

Hi there! My parents are aboard Grandeur of the Seas and I'm unable to get in touch with them. Has anyone seen or heard from Debbie and Mike Lipinski? They were supposed to call/text when they got to an island, but it's been radio silence from them. We're especially worried since they both have some preexisting health conditions. Photo attached. Unfortunately I don't have their cabin number at this time. Thanks!
