    Sorry to see you had some bad luck on embarkation. One thing I saw in your video was flying in on embarkation day. You spent a lot for that cruise. From someone who was delayed almost an entire day on flights at the airport and a seasoned traveler, you took a very big risk of losing your vacation for not arriving a day early for the cruise. As you know things happen just like it happened with embarkation. The same can happen with air travel including the legacy airlines. 🎉Good luck on your future cruises.

      Less then 1 in 100.000, miss the Cruise because of same day flight delays, its a myth created by the Cruise lines to gain favor from local Hotel, that double or triple the rates on Cruise weekends, would you travel a day earlier to a Land 🎉Resort, just to make sure a delayed flight, doesn't cost you to miss the 1st day of a Land Vacation, of Course not, leave early take the 1st flight of the day, originating flights in the AM are rarely canceled, take a Non Stop and in most cases you have a 6 or more hour Cushion, to Make the Criuise, , I'm a Seasoned Traveler, as well as Seasoned Cruiser, over 100 Cruises, always travel same day, if possible, have never missed the Boat. Buy the Insurance, just in case.

    Back in Spring of 2022 I was on the Mardi Gras and when we came back into port and soon after they had attached the gangway a microburst storm with very strong wind gusts and lightning hit the port and damaged it so it wouldn’t safety latch, and we were delayed about two hours before they could safely get it repaired to safety disembark the ship.

    We had to wait in the hot blazing sun Aug 10 for over 2 and a half hours to get on Carnival Panorama no cover from the sun at all. The ship was delayed getting back to port we never found out why. It was the worst experience we've ever had usually there's a wait but not that long. Im surprised no one fainted it was over 100 that day.

      I have to agree. It was her own fault and then acting entitled and bratty. I would not have bought her anything from that vending machine!

      I found my people. Seemed very unappreciative about the quick return of her expensive face wash, which she bought neither of... the one in the trash nor the one in the vending machine. Keep in mind mom and dad... If she did not appreciate it and show that she was grateful to YOU GUYS, then she will NOT show appreciation to others and you will have had a hand in that behavior.
