  1. Out of 2,000 - 3,000 passengers I would not expect the Canadian contingent to be more than a few dozen. While a cruise line may be willing to exert some effort, ultimately it's a very small problem in their universe.
  2. What would be "mercy"? Having passengers lacking required visas could result in the ship being denied entry. The cruise line has nothing to do with the change and its very good lawyers anticipated such situations when writing the cruise contract and placed the entire liability on passengers.
  3. That information seems to be contradicted by the several videos of the search and first hand contemporaneous passenger reports.
  4. Porter is flying the E195-E2. According to Embraer the E2 cabin bins are large enough to allow storage of a standard carry on for each passenger. Porter simply says the overhead bins are spacious, https://www.flyporter.com/en/about-porter/our-fleet/embraer-e195-e2. We will have to wait for a user report, @LHT28 🙂.
  5. Apples and oranges. A cruise stop is more like an airport transit for connecting flights, not a country visit. A number of countries have different regulations for cruise day visitors.
  6. Only if you include a desiccant like Silica gel. Otherwise moisture in the air trapped in the bag may condense and be absorbed by the cover.
  7. If you are running a real-time malware scanner then you shouldn't have to worry about opening an attached document.
  8. Sure one can. It would be tough to go over the railing, but people can lose their balance anywhere.
  9. For the same reason thousands packed the Coliseum to watch the lions.
  10. If one is suspicious, scan the document using a virus / malware checker. Being paranoid, I actually do a couple of different scans. 🙂
  11. Direct YYZ - FLL flights on Porter start Nov 30.
  12. Trip interruption insurance may not cover this situation, check your policy.
  13. Definitely make the request ahead of time. Otherwise when they ask if the request was made, ones response will result in "well you should have" 🙂. Years ago one printed out a special needs form that then had to be faxed. 😱 I can't recall when I last used a fax machine. They are probably classified as antiques these days.
  14. Color me a cynic, but I expect the answer will be about the same. "So sorry, request was never received. All out and we are hundreds of miles from our nearest approved supplier."
  15. https://nida.nih.gov/publications/research-reports/marijuana/marijuana-addictive
  16. Addicts rarely display good sense when it comes to their addiction.
  17. I did go to the USHP Standards web pages. Nowhere could I find anything approaching the list of requirements which is why I asked for links. Telling me that I have to search hundreds of thousands web pages to find the material suggests to me that the requirements listed were derived from an individual's interpretation of the material. Is that the case?
  18. Would you provide links to these items in the USPH documentation. You do realize that cruise ships are vastly different environments that any land based restaurant?
  19. Is the behavior still only in Edge? (i.e. Have you tried Chrome recently)
  20. Our reasonably free market economy accepts one as desirable and the other as not. It's a cultural distinction. Did you consider that the buses may have had to come and return some distance? Given the number of taxis it seems unlikely that 3 busses would have been available locally.
  21. Apparently the 3 large bus loads on the Oceania excursion do not agree. You went through an extraordinary amount of work to setup your excursion. If you were working the same period of time would your compensation not be at least $190?
