We signed up for a city tour of Miami following a cruise. While the excursion desk told us where to go to pick up the tour, they DID NOT tell us to go to the purser's desk and get embarkation tags that would have our luggage off first. Our flight was a late afternoon one and, therefore, the lowest priority in taking off the luggage. Hence, three out of four suitcases were there when we got off, one wasn't and by the time we tracked it down, the tour was gone. Kiss off $70 on that one. Hope this saves someone else from the same problem

My husband and I have a running argument about Lauren Bacall on a Spirit cruise a few years back. He swears it was her- I say it wasn't because 1) she was in a wheel chair full time with an assistant to push her and I have seen her mobile subsequently and 2) why would she be on a Carnival ship, particulary one as ugly as that one if she wasn't "performing." I heard people that flat out asked if she was Lauren Bacall she gave vague answers like "I am my daughter's mother." But quite a few treated her as if she was.
