I have a niece that is on Brilliance right now. Does anyone know why they still in port 2 hours past departure?

Sometimes people just get lucky. ;)

No idea...but I'm sure it's not a big deal...could be a ship's excursion got delayed.

Thanks guys. I'm checking for my sister and she's freaking out because it's still in port.

Sorry if this sounds insensitive, but she's "freaking out" because a ship is still in a US port?

[Toodang]

Yes it does sound insensitive! She has an anxiety problem and the thought of her daughter still being in port past departure time really makes her anxious! Thanks for your understanding of people with mental disabilities!

Sorry - you didn't mention a mental disability in either of your earlier posts. In that case, her daughter should be sensitive to her problem and reach out to reassure her - again, US - cell phones should work!

[Toodang]

I didn't feel need to mention a problem. I was just reaching out to my fellow cruise critics friends for help.

Are you being sarcastic? I thought JohnSnow was supporting my response? Or was I mistaken and he's criticizing me?

 

Whatever - I hope you get your answer - I just don't know why you thought that this forum would work better than a cell phone call.

Thank you JohnSnow!

I am sorry :( I know you just wanted help. I sincerely don't want to offend you.

I really think the other poster was just being tongue in cheek....and just being funny and did not intend to be insensitive as it was not known your sister had emotional or mental issues. I too thought the reply was funny.... I was like ya ....of all the places to have issues on a ship.....at port is the best place to be.

Lots of different reasons she might of been late leaving. Late tours getting back etc. Looks like she is gone now, hope your niece has a great time. The Brilliance is a beautiful ship, one of our faves.

We'll be with you....probably why we both noticed this post. First time I've ever had a negative response to any of my posts or replies.

 

We've sailed on Serenade - love the Radiance class!

I am a worrier, so I hope all is well, now.

 

I will also be on the Brilliance this Saturday, my first with RCCL.

to all of you sailing on the Brilliance this Saturday I hope you have as wonderful a cruise on her as we did. Perfect size ship, great crew just wish they itineraries were longer and to other ports. The Tampa cruise terminal is easy to navigate too. If you are staying in the Tampa area overnight I highly recommend The Columbia restaurant. The food is fantastic, google it. It is listed as Ybor City but it's part of Tampa. Also the Italian restaurant on the ship is very good, worth paying extra. Their Tiramisu is one of the best I've ever had. We are getting on the Anthem next Thursday, first time on a ship that big. Wish me luck!!!

I participated in that thread for a while...then life and some land vacations got in the way. I still follow it.

 

Getting really excited - we're driving down to Tampa Friday - who knows, we may show up at the sailaway gathering!
