We were on a cruise a couple of years ago when embarkation day was Easter Sunday. We did attend Easter mass on the ship. If memory serves me correctly, it was held around 4:00 or 5:00 and we missed sail away that day, but could hear the thrusters moving the ship. The priest had to pause a time or two during his service because of the noise level.

This overcharging happens to us frequently. We ask for our final bill the morning of disembarkation, and sure enough when our credit card statement comes, there is a charge from HAL. We then contact them to find out what the charge is for. They almost always say it is a mini bar charge. Well, we ALWAYS have the room steward clean out the mini bar, but they continue to try and charge us for items we don't use. This happened on our Feb/Mar cruise, and although HAL has given us written confirmation that we indeed should not have been charged, they also stated it would be a minimum of 8 weeks before the credit would appear on our statement. To date, no credit has appeared.

I have brought mine onboard every time we sail and have never had a problem. It will plug in around the desk just fine.
