Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. Hello, I have read various reviews about the Island Princess and am pretty hesitant to sail her, but I would like to take some of the itineraries offered. I am looking for pros and cons from people who have cruised on the Island Princess lately. Also, I read an old review that said all the balconies on the Lido and Aloha decks were open with no covering. Is this still true? Thank you.
  2. Thanks, but I was thinking she was talking about the Quebec City Jean Lesage International Airport. I could have misread though. 🙂
  3. I have searched for a hotel with a free airport shuttle, but haven't found one. Have you? If you don't mind...:-)
  4. Thank you to all of you who offered valid suggestions and sympathy. I hope perhaps my post was beneficial in helping others to think about and to form a plan if they ever are in this situation. I know it has for me. I went to my regular doctor today and seem to be doing well. My husband is being treated for kidney stones. I won't post any more or answer any more posts. Mod, would you please close this post?
  5. I am happy to hear that this could have been handled well and happy it was for you. I appreciate your well-said post.
  6. You said you thought this was a money grab. It wasn't/isn't. That seems to indicate you were saying that I was trying to make it a money grab. It doesn't matter, I know my reasons for posting.
  7. The service had no availability as they were completely booked. I did call twice. The shuttle we were finally on was completely full. We did wear masks. In hindsight, I should have called a taxi or uber or something similar.
  8. What an absurdly rude and completely unnecessary comment to make! No where did you see me post that I was seeking any money other than from my insurance company. I posted this mostly to warn others to dress warmly when debarking in Galveston and to question whether Princess could consider, based on the limitations on them, changing their policies. I have gotten several responses with ideas for what I should have done and that is good, because at the time, I wasn't really in a great shape to think of more solutions.
  9. You are quite right. I did try to move my original shuttle time up. I don't even know for sure why I didn't call a taxi. I am not quite comfortable with using Uber yet, but am getting better and will learn more. I do have a better plan if, God forbid, this happens again.
  10. Believe me, I have asked myself that many times. I wasn't thinking clearly. I also have had a lot of difficulty getting taxis at Galveston in the past and have seen people having to wait on an Uber outside the port (which I wasn't really able to walk to), but maybe that is better now. I have a definite plan if this ever happens again.
  11. I don't want/expect them to offer me anything. I just hope they do take a look at their policies and try to find a better solution within the time, etc. limitations imposed on them.
  12. Believe me, I have "should'a, could'a, would'a the situation in my mind several times in the last two days. I definitely have a plan now and won't worry about the money. Like I answered someone else, neither of us were thinking clearly. I don't think we were worried about the money then, but just about our original plans, (Not smart, I know) We did contact the shuttle service and asked to be picked up earlier, but they had no empty seats.
  13. The other people told each other they had Covid and I overheard. Two couples, each with a spouse with Covid.
