I agree the person or persons who packed the wine that broke in their suitcase could be sued for damages but how would the victim ever find the owner of that offending suitcase among the thousands of suitcases onboard? I suppose both the victim and the offender, lets call him Jeremiah (because he always had some mighty fine wine 🎶), could be beside each other at Guest Services, one complaining about their soaked clothes and one complaining that the cruise line broke their mighty fine wine. But what are the odds of that happening? I guess the ship's crew could do a search of all the cabins onboard to find Jeremiah's suitcase but I'd love to see the mutiny by all the passengers when the announcement was made to 'cease and desist' unpacking of their suitcases while the search was carried out. 🤯 Also, if the victim ever did find the broken wine bottle, the suitcase it was in, and Jeremiah himself, is there some kind of wine DNA analysis that could determine for sure it was the wine from that broken bottle that soaked the victim's clothes. 🤔 As I said earlier, I'd try to get the cruise line to pay for the cleaning. If not, so be it. I'd pay for the laundering myself. Why waste valuable vacation time trying to play Columbo or Inspector Clouseau? I might rinse some of the wine out of our clothes and make some Sangria if Jeremiah's wine is as good as they say 😉, but it would be best to just sit back, relax, and open a bottle of some really, really, mighty fine wine! 🍷

Sometimes you need to be phenomenally naughty to be incredibly nice! 😇

👍 I just asked Santa for one!

Don't hold your breath, the OP likely got their clothes washed and are now busy soaking their insides with wine.

Those are a great idea. I could not tell from the photos, is the 'FlywithWine' name or logo on the outside of the luggage?

Daily Service Charges are now officially out of hand
DirtyDawg replied to bjlaac's topic in Royal Caribbean International
Thanks, I try to avoid those lineups at guest services like the plague. Although I once found a chair within hear-shot of the G.S. desk on a rainy afternoon and was thoroughly entertained. 😉 -

I'm the same as you, never bothered in the past but in the future ... maybe. -

What's the process for removing the auto -tips? Can someone call Guest Services or do they have to go there in person? -
Another cut being tested: Once per day cabin service
DirtyDawg replied to Tenderpaw's topic in Royal Caribbean International
It does happen but did it happen in this case? I don't know and quit i don't care. If you are an average shareholder and feel the BOD is not doing its fiduciary duty you have the right to sue them. Another option is to get together with other shareholders and vote the bums out. In my 30+ years in the investment business I only had one occasion where I had to be part of a group of shareholders that voted out a BOD and sequentially the whole management group. That was a very fun and very profitable endeavor. 😁 -

Well actually those bonuses had to be approved by the shareholders directly or through the Board of Directors who have a fiduciary obligation to the corporation and its shareholders. I was only a RCL shareholder for a few months in 2020 and never had a chance to vote at the AGM - so don't blame me! 😁 -

This thread is gold for some jokes but I've started a couple this morning and .... nothing. Just not feeling it today. I'm just going to sign off and go take a shower. I hope that's OK with everyone. It will be my second in less than 18 hours and the towel will be newly cleaned ... and pressed ... and warmed by my towel warning rack. 🔌 -
I guess I would call or go to guest services and see if they could comp me free laundry services. If not, I'd send the affected clothes to get laundered ASAP and pay for it myself. Of course, not before wringing out some wine to see if it was any good. Hey, red wine pairs with lamb really well, why not with wool? 🤔 As they say, if life hands you wine soaked luggage make Sangria! 🍷 Cheers!

The culprit in this case is probably not someone who reads CC so your post most likely will "fall of deaf ears". But for your next cruise you might want to take a megaphone with you into the cruise terminal , or better yet, outside the cruise terminal, and loudly address the assemble masses. 📣

What can I tell you, we're Canadian, even our pickpockets leave notes behind saying; "Sorry." 😁 -

Does the IRS treat tips differently vs. ordinary income? In Canada the CRA treats both the same.(Canada Revenue Agency) -
Amazon delivers heavy bottles of water. And I think they deliver heavy bottles of wine in some places too! Along with very heavy bottles of pain meds for those hangovers, of course! That Jeff thinks of everything!😁

Many times when we are staying for a week or so before or after a CRUISE (hate to have the amateur moderators around here complain that I'm not posting a cruise related subject 😉) we have rented, not only apartments, but full homes if the kids are with us. Several posters have already listed the benefits and the caveats. They are just another option. Happy Cruising!

Speak for yourself. Even after 30+ years of marriage I still get lucky at sea! And multiple times each and every cruise! 🥳 🥳 🥳 Gotta love those casinos! 😉 -

And there will be an addition $16 per person, per day, fee to clean that up ... with the usual 18% Grat added on, of course. 😉
