I have cruised a lot on different cruise lines. Did MSC once; my second one is coming up on Thursday. I had no problems with my first MSC cruise. None. I do think I'll enjoy my second MSC cruise, plus it's about 50% cheaper compared to Royal (I'm traveling with a family of 5).

LI, NY has spring break on 4/22-4/26. Yes, we'll be on the cruise. Let kids be kids. I'll be having my drinks and enjoy the break. Cheers.

They can always make the terminal bigger, that shouldn't be an issue. The question is if there's a large enough cruising market (which I think there is).

Yes, both of your replies makes sense!

The problem with the clearance of the Francis Scott Key bridge, is that the Chesapeake Bay Bridge is (also) limited to 185ft so I'm not sure if they will be raising the collapsed bridge.

They did the same thing for the Bayonne Bridge in NJ https://www.portbreakingwaves.com/raising-of-the-bayonne-bridge-one-year-anniversary/

Also, Cruise ship was right to ditch the late passengers in Africa, travel writer says

Thanks for sharing. How interesting. However, the time slot for the panama canal is really something that is inflexible. At least these guests seemed to be well taken care of.

I'm still not sure about the group that missed the boat, but why on earth would you book a private group if you're not a fit, young person in a third world country where private tours aren't used to cruises (and their "hard" time requirements)? I purely blame these passengers for making this decision, and I do not blame either NCL or the ship's captain. Despite all the negative posts, I'm pretty sure the captain waited as long as possible (it seems that the ship already departed late), but there's always a point of no return. And probably the passengers crossed that threshold. Additionally: when I do my private tours (and I do plenty), I *ALWAYS* make sure to be back on-board at least 2 hours before 'all aboard'. These people did so many things wrong with the cherry on the cake their 'blame NCL media tour'. I have cruised NCL once on my Honeymoon, absolutely loved NCL and don't consider myself pro/against NCL one way or another.

If so, you could stay on the ship and enjoy lots of space. Much better than a sea day. And I personally love Labadee.

Hi all, does anyone know how much a taxi from the cruise port to coral world (6 passengers). Need to know how much cash to bring. Thanks!

Not surprised.

Cool. Got confused with HAL, my last cruise.

Don’t forget that speciality coffee counts toward the 15 drinks a day limit.

It looks like it. You mentioned to be lucky? My April 21st 7 day cruise was changed to an April 18th 10 day cruise with a much better itinerary (original: Port Canaveral, Nassau Ocean Cay). So I consider myself lucky with the closure!
