- Couple misses their cruise ship Symphony of the Seas while docked in Nassau Bahamas on February 15, 2019. All aboard time was 3:30pm. At 4:15PM the gangway was removed, doors were closed and the lines were let loose. The couple showed up approximately 5 minutes later only to see the ship preparing to push off!

You say the same shit every post. Have your boyfriend to come up with something new.
Yup 👍
…..and think EVERYONE will wait - for YOU !

“Early is on time, On time is late, Late is gone”
georgiamule great comment
Absolutely!
On time is on time to me. Ships never leave early and usually stay a couple minutes past.
Love this comment. Maybe it’s the Military in me.
My drill Sargent used to say that
"That ship has sailed" is an expression for a reason.
🤔😂😂😂😂
"Can't put the bullet back in the gun, once it's fired.."
"The train has left the station.."
"No sense in kicking a dead horse.."
"No matter where you go, there you are.."
Don't forget "They missed the boat."
@@reneebarnes1957 My favorite from a movie "Never get off the boat. Absolutely godd*mn right."
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
We’ve been on 11 cruises and no matter what, we always made it back onboard with 30-45 minutes to spare. It’s called being responsible.
Time waits for no one
Totally agree,I always take our passports with me in my man bag just in case, due to requiring any unforeseen medical attention that would cause us to miss the sailing.
Have you seen many pier runners on those 11 cruises? Those videos totally make my day.
It's why no one feels bad for these people. Everyone enjoys these videos.
My hubby and I have been on 54 cruises and never missed a ship. However, during a family reunion one of our nephews almost missed the ship.
Amazing how 5000 passengers can get back on time. But 2 can't
That's exactly what I said to myself! LOL
Not all passengers we're out i was there most of the people stay inside the shop
Lol!
Im sure hes thinking At least I'll stay in the Bahamas few days longer, make another 2 week vacation
@@novatoboombeach8824 I think you missed the point. If others made back, doesn't matter how many, why the last 2 couldn't?
When the ship leaves at 5:00pm, I’m back on that ship at 3:00pm.
Same here! Better to watch the ship depart from your cabin balcony than from the port.
Amen to that👏👏
When the Ship leaves at 12:54 P.M. I'm on the ship three years in the future.
Simple as that.....#AllAboard
You don't have to get back early. They leave on time. As long as you're within walking distance of the ship you'll be fine. They have a re-embark time and a departure time. As long as you're walking up the dock at the re-embark time you're good. It's 30 minutes to an hour difference.
I like how they walk towards the far end as if to have a polite conversation with the guy standing on deck to make sure he knew that they needed to get onboard. And then the satisfaction of seeing the thrusters rev up and hearing the horn blow was just the official goodbye.
If I'm not mistaken the 3 horn blasts was the ship signaling that it's about to reverse. Still it also fit perfectly with the scene we were watching :)
Watching this never gets old. Some people say poor them...I say get back on time. Or book your excursion through the cruiseline. This and the other videos showing people running to the pier, convinces me to always get back early
Either that or make sure you’re in prime shape before you go on vacation…and have sneakers on hand 😂
I could see some situations where it wouldn’t be your fault. Taxi breaks down or accident brings whole city to a standstill and you can’t get back despite leaving plenty of time, but that doesn’t seem to be the case in most of these situations.
@Jessica Scoe that's why I say book through the cruiseline. If they are late, the ship will wait. I've only done one excursion using a 3rd party. I made sure I got back at least 2 hours before we set sail.
You seem fun 😂
@@shininglight143 I have my moments
They only tell you 50 million times what time to be back on board.
With a big ole sign as well
For anyone who hasn't cruised before; one of the first things you'll hear over the entercom, ship wide, is the cruise director or the captain himself telling everyone to set their watches to "ship's time". Ship's time doesn't change throughout your cruise, even If you change time zones. Always observe ship's time. And, figure on getting back to the ship with at least an hour to spare. Not only will it save you from being left behind, but it will save you a long line wait when trying to reboard the ship, and you'll get to get lunch or cocktails with very little wait. Once everybody gets back aboard, they tend to b-line straight for food or to the bars. You can save this hassle as well by being early.
One warning: make sure you go to your phone's settings and look for a setting that allows world clock functions. Ask the captain what the time zone is and set it for THAT time zone. That way, you won't have to worry about it changing back and forth one hour when you step off the ship! Had that happen to me when flying to Orlando, FL once. Fortunately, I found out about this when stepping off the plane, not when heading back!
Getting a watch solely for ship's time was something I literally just said to myself before I scrolled down to see your comment XD
It’s also important to book excursions through the cruise line and not a 3rd party because you will not get left if that excursion is late or something happens. The ship will wait for you until you get back so you’re basically guaranteed to not get left by booking through the cruise line!
@@desireer1050 True, but you should still read up on reviews about the excursion if you can. The cruise line could be thinking about "breaking up" with them because they were late too many times. This suggestion was passed on to me by another RUclipsr. She searched for the dreadful tour operator that was very late getting her back to the ship. No need for her to worry, the cruise line broke up with them and booked tours through a different one.
I think this is what happens too often. People not realizing that ship time is not always the same as the time on shore.
He’s blaming her. She’s blaming him.
How I’d love to be a fly on the wall in the hotel room that night! 😂
😅
This reminds me of a guy on a ramp, asking where his plane was. His boarding pass was for 6:00 am, it was 7:am.
The attendant was looking at him like he was the stupidest idiot in the world while saying, "the plane is no longer here, sir."
Their body language tells the whole story. The swagger and, “We’re here now” arm waving changed quickly once they realized the world, in fact, doesn’t revolve around them.

Michael Barrella ok thanks
Michael Barrella but if it was you what would you do just be standing there what 😒😒😒✌🏽
Michael Barrella go count your coins and
I like how they casually wave down the ship like its bus.
Actually the worst part too beside being late.. Yes glad you pointed that out. They were taking there sweet time.
Even a bus will not stop even when just closed the door that door will not open until it gets to next stop.
And yet there will be people like this who seem to assume even buses are like taxis or something. I was on one in Washington DC and it was sitting at an intersection waiting to make a left turn when some random guy walks into traffic and knocks on the door demanding to be let on. It was no where near a stop either. Bus driver said no and so the guy whipped out his phone and started filming the driver through the windshield while standing IN FRONT of the bus saying he was going to get him fired. It's really frightening how many people (like these two) have this entitled attitude.
LOL when they say 330 they mean 330
Am I the only one sitting and watching with a smile on my face?
In my time in the US Navy, one main thing you learn is you NEVER miss Ship’s movement....
What will the US Navy do if you are late to get on the Navy ship.
@@dominicliner1609 Someone said you will face court martial when you get back to base! Yikes...
Never -
I was in the Navy, too. It's called Missing Movement or Article 87. Service members convicted of a violation face a maximum punishment of dishonorable discharge, forfeiture of all pay and allowances, and up to 2 years of forced confinement.
If I recall, they called the hearing Captain's Mast?
@@dominicliner1609 It's called missing ships movement which can get you restriction to the ship for 30 days at your next port of call or back in your homeport as a minimum but can get you much worse punishment. As a Master-At-Arms in the Navy I saw it several times in my career.
A flight won't wait, why should a ship? Be early. Simple.
Ronnie Marks flights are different. Airplanes have slot time and if that is missed they might be stuck there for hours. But yeah! Flights won’t wait
@@oliver5976 have you heard of tides?
@@TheDolphace and pilot times, thiers more than one ship in the harbour
On top of what others have mentioned. Time table, Wind, Sea state and fuel burn. Why not think before you write Hun.
@@oliver5976 The captain give them 45 min after the time out..... they were just incredibly stupid....
The entitlement tell is the arms held up like 'What's wrong with you?" - they cannot conceive of anything being their own fault
That’s what I was thinking lol - the physical gesture equivalent of a huffy spoiled teenager
My dad, A high ranking military officer always said "If you're not 15 minutes early you're late". I have lived by that rule and have never been late for anything. Especially a trip on a ship, plane or train.
Exactly
Your Dad is cool, reminds me of my favorite movie line. "If you ain't first you're last!" lol My Dad was British military, he is punctual as hell and always derides me for my less than stellar punctuality. :)
Those waves being generated by the ship, and the loud horn sound later, are adding an insult to injury.
These are the type of people that, if you are having a party that starts at 8pm, you tell them 5:30.
Right..lol
Great post..
Yeah but who would have these idiots over at 5.30pm
Charlesbjtown LMAOO
I went on a cruise with an Ex once who shopped till the last minute and this almost happened its terrifying
I'm in the shower or already at dinner when the horn sounds. You're not leaving without me!!!!
HAHAHAHAHA

You got that right! Lol.
I’m usually ballin out the ol lady and sittin poolside with a hand full of pesos and a million shekel smile by then.

I believe I've met these two at the airport. Arguing with the gate attendant at 3:10, over a flight that left at 3:00.
Before going to my first cruise with my family in June of 2019 on the Vista I was advised thank God by my aunt who cruised quite some time and she advised me the first thing to remember to be back on that ship on time and me and my family felt proud we did 😊❤️
You cannot feel sorry for these people. The cruise ships let you know when the departure time is at every port.
One of the best reasons to book a balcony on a cruise...”The Running of the Latecomers.”
That is very funny
😂😂😂😭
😆😄😄😄
That’s a sight I don’t want to see on vacation. Laughing at the expense of another human, especially while I’m trying to enjoy myself!
I would've but it is more expensive
You know they had to have talked about being late...
"Oh but they'll wait" "sure they can't leave us"
Even planes don't wait
The real reason cruise ships don't wait is not because they're on a "tight schedule". It's because every minute they're in port after their scheduled departure time they're billed for by the port.
Every time when we go on a cruise I always make sure I come back super early my wife and I because I don't want to end up on RUclips looking like these two like a damn fool
So whats the point of going on a cruise at all d*psh*t
@@elatab11 what the fuck is your problem dipshit?
@@elatab11 Follow the schedule and all will be well
Going on a cruise does not mean you can do whatever you want. Get your ass back on time.
@@sevill34 EXACTLY! There are itineraries and schedules
I can't feel sorry for folks like this. You have ample time to get back to the ship on time.
Same thing I'm saying.
Exactly and they give an extra 20 mins
And do you know why they were late?
@@TheRadFactor No. And I don't care why. It's simple, get back to the ship on time.
@@TheRadFactor Nobody gives a f*k why they were late, obviously. Least of all, the captain. 😂😂😂
Cruise lines pay rental on dock space by the time they are there. It costs the company big bucks to wait for rude passengers. Dock space is not free.
its in the tens of thousands of dollars
I've missed the school before. Got there just as it was leaving. The feeling is gut wrenching. You feel abandoned. Couldn't imagine how it feels to miss your cruise ship.
I worked on cruise ships for several years and now I'm cruising twice a year, always with Royal. I have NEVER seen a ship leave on time because someone was always late, despite all kinds of warnings and announcements. Most people probably do not realize this, but extra time at the pier costs the ship money. So, fair warning, be on time!
Brian Viglietti -Not only that, sir, but also winds, tides, burning fuel during dwell time, and incoming traffic all conspire to require an on time departure.
Brian Viglietti does Royal Caribbean offer transgender resources?
@@humortangelo3975 I know that on board every ship there is a notice board where anything about get together or events for specific can be posted, including LGBTQ, so AFAIK you would have a chance to meet someone sharing your interests (if you are serious about the question).
@J G dilido😂😂😂
I have been on 4 cruises with Carnival, and the ships ALWAYS left on time.
When I was on a cruise. I always subtracted one hour from the time they told us to be back and the girl I was with was of the same mind set. Worked out great for us. No stress and a leisurely adventure.
no waiting in line either. Same here. I'd rather be back an hour before they say to get on and not stress it. Missing the ship has to be one of the worst feelings, especially if you're just in your swim suit and cover up.
I can’t imagine my ship leaving me. If we have to be back at the ship at 6, I’m on the cruise by 5 the latest and honestly, even 5pm makes me nervous.
The horn is not blowing "Good bye!", it's blowing three times, which is the international warning signal for "My machine is running backwards!"
I feel sorry for these people. Something similar almost happened to me and my partner once. We were on a private tour when the vehicle we were on broke down on the way back to ship. The company we were doing the tour with started arranging a car to pick us up right away. We managed to find a number to call the cruise line and they patched us through to the ship. Spoke to the captain and explained to him that we were gonna be 20 minutes late and asked what he could do. He said he would "hold the ship up no worries and will make up the extra time on the water". I will forever be thankful to that captain for his kindness. There are still great people in this world!
and you had a ligitimate excuse and had the courtisy to try to call the ship and explain, what was their excuse!
That was Kind...
You did the right thing by letting the ship know! Props to you! 😁
I hope you gave him a $1,000.00 tip
Maybe they have an arrangement with the tour group you were on or just very lucky! But, this exactly why it's often better to pay more for the ship's tour..they wait no matter what happens to the tour!!
Thank you for posting this. I enjoyed watching them act surprised that the ship didn't wait for them. This is how things work in the real world. Be on time or get left behind.
Oooooh how i love this! It brings great plessure to my heart watching this ❤️❤️❤️
Hope that shopping was worth it.
Idea..Maybe they should mention the "we are leaving without you"speech during the Muster drill.Maybe then maybe those late comers will pay closer attention to time.Or not.
I remember that same feeling when I missed the bus in middle school and the driver kept driving. That was a special day. I learned that the world does not owe me anything 😋
My sister used to pick up grade school students at the school where her own daughter also attended. She did it for the extra money and she was there picking up her own kid anyway.
She would often complain of this one boy that was always holding everyone up because he wouldn’t come out of the building with everyone else and was inside playing around while everyone else was sitting in the SUV waiting for him to come strolling out with a smile on his face because he felt so important that everyone was waiting for him.
She talked to his parents about it and it would straighten out for a few days and then he was back to his old behavior again.
One day she was not able to pick up the kids and asked me if I would take her SUV and do it for her. She told me where to park and the kids knew where to look for me. They all got in except HIM. One of the kids asked me if I wanted him to go in and look for late kid. I said no, and started the SUV and drove away. All the kids in van got quiet and you should have seen the looks on their faces.
Later my sister yelled at me and asked me why I left his sorry ass behind and that his mother was pissed off and my sister was concerned about losing a customer.
Well…… you can guess what I told her.
She still did ask me every now and then to pick up the kids for her after that and on those days she would make sure to tell that kids mother that I was the one picking up the kids that day so the mother could tell her little darling that he better be on time today. Strangely enough he always seemed to be on time for those days. I wonder why that was?
Lessons learned young are the best lessons of all !!!
@@im1who84u too bad your sister didn't learn the lesson either.
@@chrise.321 She was very pretty and had no problem getting boyfriends. So, as you would expect, she was used to just doing whatever she wanted and everybody else had to adjust their lives to accommodate her.
We always butted heads because I wouldn't change my plans because of her last minute decision to do something else. I wasn't one of her Beta boyfriends that she could just walk all over.
Fortunately I wasn't too bad looking either and I didn't have to take any sh!t from any of the girls I dated. I was always nice to them and not "clingy", but as soon as they sh!t tested me, that was last thing they remember doing before their phone stopped ringing and they were out looking for a new boyfriend that might take their sh!t.
I was gone and had moved on. They can be somebody else's problem now.
I missed the Bus once. Had to go back in the house and tell my Mom. After she emptied a 55 gallon drum of whoop ass on me she had to call a relative to haul my butt into Town. Even on the coldest...rainiest....hottest.....mornings, this little freak was at the end of the driveway wayyyyyyy before any Bus was.
Serves them right! It's not fair to everyone else who was ON TIME!
BoredRandomCraptv On time for what exactly? Laying on the deck?
It’s nearly impossible to blame any ship or any cruise line for leaving without passengers. They give multiple announcements as to when to be back on board. It’s up to the passengers to be back on board and on time. If the ship leaves at 4pm, I’m back on board no later than 3pm. These ships will not wait for you.
However, if you book an excursion through the cruise line and it’s late getting back, they’ll wait. If you don’t book an excursion through the cruise line (but by a third party), then you may have a good chance of being left behind by the ship.
Love to see this. Mamma never taught them to tell time.
There are always those few, who actually think the ship won't leave without them.
yeah bc they are spoiled dummies who think the world owes them something
I bet that captain was watching them through the window, laughing his head off as he pulled out of the port 😂😂😂
Thrash Thrasherson evil 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I dont think a captain has time to be childish
No he wasn't. That would be unprofessional. And captains are everything but unprofessional
Thrash Thrasherson
More angry that these people can't return on time when the other 2,000 managed it.
Don't blame him
I learned my lesson in 3rd grade. I missed my school bus. So I woke my dad up to drive me to school. My dad said you missed the bus walk or run to school now and went back to sleep because he had to get up at 9am for work. Wasn’t late ever again.
When I was in the Navy, missing ship’s movement was among the worst things you could do. 😮
That boat hold 5,518 passengers. 5,516 of them were appropriately able to follow directions. If I were the captain, i would have tried to splash water in their face on the way out, just for being douche bags.
I think the Captain should have told them to swim for it and MAYBE he would pick them up
😂😂😂😂😂😂💀
You don't know all that crap yu you farted. No clue how many passengers even were booked. U Just a HATER...
Dwl ... Adam, that is funny ...LoL
@@richardscales6725 You are right, I don't know many passengers were actually on the ship out of the 5,518 that it is capable of holding.... but since your brain can't seem to handle big 4-digit numbers....let's break it down......even if there were only 100 freaking people on the boat.... still... 98 of them were able to get their shit together enough to get on the boat. I mean- they are are a CRUISE.... the #1 most important piece of being on a cruise- is getting on the damn boat.
Also, a personal congratulations are in order for your ability to screw up a sentence that only has 9 words in it.
Now that.... THAT is me being a hater. See the difference?
I have no sympathy for these people, the ship has a schedule to keep. I bet they will never be late back to the boat again!
Symphony has no sympathy
Or never take ship again.. ha!
It’s a Ship!!🥴
Sympathy for what? Stupid people who can't tell time?
lol it’s a cruise ship they have sympathy they legit waited 15-20 minutes for the two, when you book your cruise you know how long you will be at each area, they knew long before getting onboard that ship and even when they got off that ship they knew what time they had to be back. This is human error and the cruise ships have a schedule to. Say someone showed up to work late would a job keep you working, would they make everyone else wait for you, no because they have a schedule they need to stick to
Maria and her husband were like "Oh no" and "Damn, we missed the ship". The other couples express consolation like they're making the best of it and saying "Oh well"
It's like an episode of a tv show where it involves travelling. One can only have one episode to make it work or break it and to make it interesting, they write to have the characters miss something and then making the best of it.
I remember this. I was on board when this happened. My wife and I watched it.
Legend has it, they're still stopping random port employees in Nassau asking where their boat went.
No they’re asking if the boat can come back
Ship 🛳
😂😂
Till this day. TILL THIS DAY!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
How could they be late, there is NOTHING to do at Nassau !
my thoughts exactly!!!!
Okkkkkk
I agree. It is ugly there
Their is for the tourist but as a Bahamian the whole Bahamas is boring
What? The beaches are so nice. Food is good too. I loved Nassau.
Honestly, this happens to me (which it won't, I can promise you that), I'd be very visbly upset at first but it'd all be directed at myself. Once I got "Welp, time to see where I can get a trip to the next port." set into my head, I'd give everyone a shrug of the shoulders and a salute before heading off to fix my fuckup.
The dislikes are from people who have missed the Ship. Nah, Im Joking
Honey that's a hard lesson learned. And a costly one at that. The world does not revolve around you. Be back on time! If 5,000 other people can be back on time. So can you. As they would say in the Diva World as the ship was telling them through it's horn blasting. Bye Felicia 👋 👋.
@candy girlll well honey in they're case. It's too bad so sad. 😥 . Nott!!😂😂

They may have been too busy!!🤣
You have to keep in mind, these people weren't just a couple minutes late, they weren't even 15-20 minutes late, the back on board time was probably 15-30 minutes before the cast off preparations were made, and then the ship waited the extra 15 or 20 minutes for this one couple... so, this one couple's arrival was probably closer to a full hour after the final time for them to be back on board. Sorry, not sorry.
yes, they were at least 50 minutes late, as you have to be 30 minutes before departure at least, I am not sorry for them neither.
..dopes..
Ship time is 1 hour off at this stop in Nassau. We had the same warning beat into our skulls by the tour guides...
Late is late whether it is ONE minute or ONE hour.

I remember I did a cruise with my family in Europe in 2008. We stopped at Livorno, Italy with the choice to rent a car instead of taking a bus tour to visit Florence. We did that my parents and I.
Florence was not near the port so we only had the time to visit the main places in the beautiful city and go back to the ship. We made it really sharp.
I have seen this happen .It is a very expensive event to fix. Harbor Master has to confirm people belong on the liner, arrange a water taxi or other craft to pick up late people , board them ,and transport them to meet the cruise ship just out side harbor, where captain has his trained crew men vested up,, and get gear to cargo door to receive the late comers. It can be risky too. Unless the passenger is injured, dead or in jail, there is no excuse for missing departure time.
Don't forget that the Captain may for safety reasons, refuse to allow the small boat to come alongside.
This is rare very rare and only in particular circumstances. Most the times it's your passports are with the shore agent, cruise port authorities and you are getting to the next stop by plane out your own pocket.

The captain got tired of waiting for them and they got left behind 3 times from 3 different ports..... me and my wife and our ship mates in the balcony cabin next to us were cracking up laughing seeing them running down the pier trying to stop the ship each time.....it was hilarious.
Wow, you would think they'd learn from the first time!? That's crazy, they really must not have any sense and money to waste!
Yea that was crazy, you’d think after the first time they would be on time but I guess not seeing they let it happen 2 more times.....and agreed, it does cost a lot of money going from port to port on your own dime trying to catch back up with the ship.

Good on the captain for sailing away as he did in this video. I don’t have any petty for people like that.

@@marer1000 people used to be late occasionally and would actually feel bad about it. Now they expect the world to wait for them.

@@snowwhite7571 By what I've heard, there is always reps from cruise line companies base at the ports of calls to assist people in any situation although when your left behind as this is the case here, hopefully they have their passports and a credit card with them.

Serves that couple right. Another of these self-entitled passengers who think they are above the rules.
Take a proper watch and set it to 'Ship Time'.

This won't help those selfish people who think that the ship will wait for them anyway.
100% correct!
They have a watch or a phone and also entitlement
Which is why I taught my kids, if you are early you are on time. If you are on time you are actually late. And don't be late...
Taught mine the very same thing, Mark.
My husband was taught the same from his childhood. He has made me go from a chronically late person to someone who is always an hour early (also known as ON TIME).
Wish my College students had parents like you. You would not believe how many wander in late as if it's no big deal.
I taught my queen ants that but they don't care. 🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜👸👸👑👑👑The last person who confronted the ants were eaten alive and sent to Mars as food for the mice and frogs which the ants are breeding there. 🐜🐜🐜🐜🐜👑👸🐸🐸🐸🐸🐒🐒🙌🙌🙌🐭🐁🐀🐭🐭🐭🐭🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃🏃♿♿
Too bad so sad. Passengers don’t realize that the cruise lines are faced with heavy fines if they don’t leave the dock on time. If the ship doesn’t leave on time, that means the next ship will also be late docking. It’s chain reaction. No different than catching your flight at the airport.
Why do certain people think they’re special and rules don’t apply to them? I’m always on time or early because my Mother was late for everything and even as a child I thought it was so rude and I was embarrassed.
I went on one tour once that was not booked with the cruise ship, and man I was so busy focusing on the time and stressing that We’d miss the ship, I didn’t even enjoy the tour. Thankfully we made it back in plenty of time but since then I always book cruise line shore excursions.
My parents were on that ship. They were making announcements on board about the couple trying to see if any other cruisers knew where they were.
Can you give us more details
They made it on
Christina Ruggiero How did they make it on?
@@christinaruggiero893 how you know?
@@christinaruggiero893 No they didn't and neither did the other 6 people they were with
I love cruises, they treat you like kings and queens as long as your on the boat.
When your off, your nobody.
Haha that’s so true!
Cruising all these years, that's the best way to describe it!
Some people think the world revolves around their stupidity.
Accountability is a hard pill to swallow for some people
ship, you're
It is so good to see this , how hard can it be to understand basic advice
My wife and I are advid cruisers, (two per year) we learned that if you are on a cruise sponsored shore excursion and that excursion is late or behind schedule that the ship MUST wait for your excursion to return, but if you go off on your own or a non cruise excursion (private excursion) and something delayed your return to the ship, it will not wait for you.
To all the cruisers who think the ship’s departure time is simply a suggestion, YT is full of videos of people like these two left standing dock side watching their ship leave them behind. If you are one of those people that is chronically late, you know who you are, book your shore excursions through the cruise ship. They will wait for your group to return.
If the ship leaves at 5 pm im back at the ship at 3:30pm AT THE LATEST. No excuses
I agree!
I will be back on by 1:00pm
Im back at 9 am 🤣. Nah but for real, one hour before departure is already stressful enought tbh
And every minute passes on the port the ship has to pay.
@@don-hc8se No, they don't pay by the minute. But as soon as the main engines are started they burn a LOT of fuel and THAT costs a lot of money!
“Just one more shop…oh look at the shoes….”
Saw a similar incident in Cozumel myself on a Princess cruise. Ship was several hundred yards from the port before she ceased moving. A tender brought the couple out to the ship. Both were three sheets to the wind.
welll that trip just got more expensive for them
Hella!!!!!
If I remember correctly. They left their passports, money, ID, and credit cards on board as well.
@COMI O CÚ DO BLUEZÃO E A BOCETA DA THALIA You don't need a passport to leave a country... I left the country and went on a cruise with my birth certificate and ID because I didn't have time to get a passport.
@COMI O CÚ DO BLUEZÃO E A BOCETA DA THALIA Not true. You leave your passport on the ship.
@@DeletedNinja754 Not anymore.
I saw a group of 6 people miss the boat in 2003 in Nassau. The ship had been gone already an hour. We heard them yelling why did they leave us from 9 decks up.
I love how they remonstrate as if the ship was in the wrong for leaving despite the guests being late! I’ve no sympathy for people like this!
The one and only cruise I went on, the captain said over and over "The ship will not wait if you are late". He also said "if you do miss the ship, you will miss out on a relaxing day at sea, swimming in the pools, live music, gambling, working on that sun tan, you will miss dinner, the shows after dinner, dancing, drinking....and instead, you will be paying a cab driver $100 to take you to the airport, and around $300 each for flights, $300 for two nights hotels, then another $100 for another cab back to the dock to pick up your things". DON"T BE LATE! And we still saw at least 3 couples doing the dock Olympics.
This is why you always take your passport too and not just the ship card!
My passport goes with me. Everywhere. You just never know.
Some ships, you have to hand your passport into the Pursers office, so they produce it to port officials if required.
@@asd67lkj Really? I have never had to do that, but I have only been on Caribbean Cruises. Is that for European cruises?
@@whisperthunder1976 The P&O cruises we were on we did not have to (kept them in the safe), but on our last cruise. Royal Caribbean "Legend of the Seas" from Hawaii to Sydney we did..IIR, they took our passports when we registered before boarding and they gave us our ship card..
@@whisperthunder1976 it’s either that or they enter your rooms to get it which passengers probably won’t like.
This is why you need to get back to the ship an hour or two in advance. However, what most people don't realize is that each Cruise Line have a representative on the island that will assist any cruiser's left behind get to the next port of call at their expense, and it's a good idea to carry your Passport and ID at all times. The only time a ship will wait, is if you booked an excursion through that cruise line or on the ship, and that for some unforeseen reason they return to the ship late. Otherwise, SHIPS WAIT FOR NO ONE!!!!
Debbie Brooks not an hour or two. The ships master requires you to be back on board 30 minutes prior to sailing. What most cruisers have no clue about is not only is your tardiness screwing up possibly 3000 passengers on your ship, but also the other ship with 4000 passengers waiting for your ship to leave so that line can get in.
@@styldsteel1 Cruise Lines pay a big penalty for over staying their welcome.
Once we were on a cruise and we went to Bruges. Once everyone was in the city the trains went on strike and around 300 of us were stranded. The cruise line staff were stuck there too. The cruise sent out taxis and coaches for us all. We all arrived back 4 hours late but i thank that cruise for waiting for us all!
I figured there had to be some resource like that for people left behind to get to the next port and re-join the ship.
@@mattpope1746 Yep it's a desk at the furthest part on the pier and you have to do...... "The walk of shame".
this happened to me in Miami, scariest moment of my life, after we were given the wrong gate and finally got the right one. 2 minutes from missing our flight
Just came back from a Carnival cruise and it's nice to have a watch with basic hands to keep time. Some within our group turned off Airplane mode that updated phones to local time which was one hour behind. Easy to see how someone can be late if not careful.
I worked in the tourist travel industry driving charter buses. They carry 40 to 47 passengers. I always had a couple, meaning, husband and wife, boy friend girl friend, two friends, etc. that was continuously late.. I can't imagine how big this problem is on a ship with thousands of people. I have left people behind also. There are always people that think they are more special or more entitled than every one else.
They are so special that they get to spend some additional quality time on the island. Enjoy! You deserve it!
Took one cruise in my life. Went on honeymoon with 2 other couples. Had a great time other than the fact we were always worried about missing the ship. Having to always worry about getting back to the ship just got tiresome
There is a big sign on the gangway as you exit the ship that tells you what time the ship sails and advises you to be back on board one hour prior to sailing. There are always a couple people who think they are special and the rules just do not apply to them.
Just like when you have a flight that is scheduled to leaves at 12:00 and you show up at 12:30, the same thing happens. Start flapping your arms.
I also missed the boat in miami in 1994, and I'm still here in the us lol
I am ALWAYS late for EVERYTHING and have been on 4 or 5 cruises and made it back for every port departure. If I can do it everyone should be able to!
You can't remember 4 or 5 ? And they always wait for you....i smell bullshit.
@@dannymcafee4552 Annski is late for everything *except* port departures.
Even if you're confused about time zones, just set your clock to the amount of time you have before you have to be back on the ship. If you know you have 3 hours before the ship leaves, set your clock in enough time to get back on the ship;
Legend has it they are still wondering around the dock, hoping the ship will come back for them
Now the blaming game start. The man accused the woman and vice versa. Bye bye SHIP, bye bye relation(SHIP).
Very shrewd observation. Good day.
Lol i don't think so
Johannes Weitz I was thinking the same.😂
Oooooooo...BURN!!! hahaha
This is funny.
And this why I return to the ship an hour early and only do excursions from the cruise line!
The supremely funny moment was when they waved to try to stop the ship, as if they were chasing a bus. Time wasn't the only thing they were unaware of.
I wish I was on the ship that was leaving... I would yell down to them "You were supposed to be back at 3:30. It's 4:15 now. Did you really expect the ship to still be waiting for you? 45 minutes is too late."
