zekekelso Posted March 20, 2013 #351 Share Posted March 20, 2013 My personal opinion is that what you stated in red is incorrect. If you could care less, that means you actually do care, because you could care less, but you don't. The correct statement I believe you were looking for, is "I COULDN'T CARE LESS!" They used an idiomatic expression. They used it correctly. You chastized them, even though they did nothing wrong. I think an appology or kind word is called for, no?

EVALUATOR Posted March 20, 2013 #352 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Nope!:D Can you carry liquids (like wine bottles) on board, or checked only??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianeh934 Posted March 20, 2013 #353 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Nope!:D watches do not have to be removed but shoes do now. As we now have the machines that you keep your hands up watches not set the alarm off as they are above the area scanned. Shoes are to be off as they recently started to enforce this part as they have always suggested that you wear slip on shoes. Belts as well are being asked to be removed. This is from the government of Canada web site: What To Wear Since all passengers must pass through a walk-through metal detector, we suggest you decrease the likelihood of setting off the alarm: Dress comfortably with easy-to-remove outerwear, jackets, belts and slip-on shoes Limit jewelry to small earrings, watches, wedding bands/engagement rings, eyeglasses Wear clothing without snaps, metal buttons, or studs Avoid wearing shoes with metal arches, buckles, steel-toes or shanks Avoid wearing belts with metal buckles. Remove hidden body piercings before you fly Remember, if you set off the alarm while walking through the metal detector you will have to undergo further screening to determine its source. This may include hand “wanding” and/or a physical search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianeh934 Posted March 20, 2013 #354 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Can you carry liquids (like wine bottles) on board, or checked only??? Checked only unless it is delivered to your gate agent as you bought it at the duty free shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunset Glow Posted March 20, 2013 #355 Share Posted March 20, 2013 Can you carry liquids (like wine bottles) on board, or checked only??? No, you must check on liquids over 100ml. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL ......it is funny that the individuals who attack others most often about typos or grammar are most often guilty of the things that they choose to attack others with. Thanks!

This may include hand “wanding” and/or a physical search. Shoes are not required to be taken off in Canada. Some larger shoes/boots will be asked to be removed though (eg work boots or platforms). We fly all the time, as recently as last week, and have never been asked to remove footwear in Canada.

PhoenixDawgCruising Posted March 20, 2013 #358 Share Posted March 20, 2013 One of about 8,000 reasons why I am glad I don't drink. Never have, never will. Such nonsense. So they opened your bag, let you keep your wine, and let you go . Big Deal! If this alone would have you swear off RCCL altogether, perhaps you never belonged there in the first place. What did you expect the crew member to do, kiss your a$$ for doing his/her job??:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted March 20, 2013 #359 Share Posted March 20, 2013 We fly all the time, as recently as last week, and have never been asked to remove footwear in Canada. Well, this is all getting off track, but at Vancouver (YVR) you must remove footwear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EVALUATOR Posted March 20, 2013 #360 Share Posted March 20, 2013 No, you must check on liquids over 100ml. Thanks for the info. And since I assumed you did something wrong by not taking off the watch and I was wrong...I'm sorry.:o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wearing running shoes. It maybe new or maybe the crew that was working that day but I was surprised as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan-P Posted March 20, 2013 #366 Share Posted March 20, 2013 [/color] They used an idiomatic expression. They used it correctly. You chastized them, even though they did nothing wrong. I think an appology or kind word is called for, no? Being an idiom is irrelevant to the fact that it is grammatically incorrect. At least incorrect based on the implied meaning and "tone" of the author. Your definition of chastised and mine vary greatly. And for the record, you spelled chastised incorrectly! ;) See, now you coerced me into contributing my third post to this train wreck. At this rate it will only be a matter of days before I reach my 3,000 posts and obtain the next astute level of this forum! :eek: Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave4120 Posted March 20, 2013 #367 Share Posted March 20, 2013 I'm just surprised so many of us would post a reply to the original poster. Does anyone really care that she won't cruise RCCL again because the cruise line only did their job? I'm only posting now because it seems like a foolish post that provides nothing of interest to help fellow cruisers with any important issues or questions. On to more enlightening threads.
