Oh No!!!!

[Saint Greg]

Now I’m in customs and they say it’s a 30 minute wait and my flight takes off in 10 minutes 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I told NCL it wasn’t enough time. They said they’re authorized to book flights 30 minutes apart

 

[Stowaway LFC]

Yikes! 30 minutes is not enough time if you have to clear customs. They should have taken that into account when booking since it's international.  I would complain to NCL about that.  This must be the bad side of using NCL's airfare.

I’m sorry you are In This situation.hopefully there are enough delayed that they’ll hold the plane. We’ve booked our air through NCL for Europe next year. We are watching flights and if it gets within 500.00 we are booking our own.

I hope so but I don’t know. Flight aware says it took off 13 minutes ago which actually is 4 minutes before it was supposed to.

they gave me an hour. And I said that’s not enough.

tbey said they can do 30 mins. I got off of my plane at 7:07 and this one took off at 7:46.

[Saint Greg]

Yeah I missed it

 

[luvcruzing]

Ugh!  Horrible way to end a great vacation.  

[Saint Greg]

Now I get to wait in the customer service line.

 

 

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I think I got about 30 minutes of sleep on the plane. But people kept getting up to use the bathroom during turbulence and the Capt made at least 5 announcements to stay seated. One of those woke me up.

Same!  I have NCL air on a cruise in 2025 that departs from London.  If I can get it cheaper on my own I will cancel NCL's air.

[Saint Greg]

In the security line this lady pushed her way past everyone saying her flight was boarding. I said mine is too. In customs a guy tried the same thing. I told him he wasn’t getting past me. I was in worse shape than him. He didn’t get past me.

Great review Greg as always. 
 

I’m sorry you missed your flight that was definitely not enough time for a connection that involved customs. 
 

How are you feeling?  It sucks to think of you feeling awful and being stuck in an airport all day.

[balcony bound]

Does NCL figure this out for you, or do you fend for yourself?

[Saint Greg]

Instead of getting into Dallas at 10am it’s going to be somewhere 6-8pm and i have To connect again.

 

[Saint Greg]

And I lose the money I paid on the seat upgrade 

 

[Stowaway LFC]

I can't imagine how frustrated you must be. That totally sucks!

I emailed my former vacation planner but she’s never answered any of my emails so I don’t think she’ll start now. They owe me something in my opinion. But it’s me handling it with customer service.
