Stockjock, you must have felt unsure of the information the Celebrity agents were imparting, or you would not have come here. Sorry you din’t like the answers you are getting here, but the truth is that there are too many new telephone agents who haven’t received all the training they should have. They look up “answers’ in their train g manuals, but don’t realize that there are specific features of the PVSA which must be taken into account.
if you ask the general question “can I leave the cruise before it is over,” the manual provides general answers about downline disembarkation. But in this specific case, the downline disembarkation violates the PVSA, and the telephone agent may not know enough to look further into the question.
