megr1125 Posted March 23, 2014 #176 Share Posted March 23, 2014 I agree, they should have information on their website, facebook and twitter. A couple of people have posted questions on facebook asking about possible delays but have not received answers. On twitter, the original itinerary change was tweeted by the cruiseline but not additional tweets about this current sailing. WOW really? Guess I missed that tweet....:rolleyes::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess I missed that tweet....:rolleyes::eek: I had checked last night when people were trying to find information, I figured I would give it a shot. https://twitter.com/RoyalCaribbean/with_replies They should be sending out smoke signals, telegrams, carrier pigeons or something.:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare colesc15 Posted March 23, 2014 #181 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Hey everyone.. We're slowly making our way into port in Puerto Rico from adventure of the seas. It's been an adventure to say the least! We're expected to be able to start getting off at around noon. Problems started in St Kitts, left there delayed by nearly 9 hours, changed itinerary since we couldn't make it to Aruba so we went to Antigua, St Maarten for two days, and then we were supposed to go to st Croix but more problems came so we had to skip the too. Yesterday we traveled about 13 notical miles the entire day by basically drifting all day as they were trying to fix the propeller that they original patch fixed. It's just patch dozed again so our top speed is about 5 knots. It's been pretty crazy on board this morning as people are trying to change flights. The capton has kept us pretty informed the whole week, but still Def a disappointment by not going to Aruba and Curacao and basically drifting through the ocean all week and sitting at ports all night. We made the best of it though, and it was still enjoyable, except for today. Questions? So far, no idea what they're doing next week. __________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamFritz Posted March 23, 2014 #184 Share Posted March 23, 2014 With the slower speed I was wondering if the stabilizers are less effective. Do you feel more rolling? I'm a little surprised they're goung to try another sailing. I wouldn't want to be on Adventure this week.

Sent from my phone using Tapatalk 2- Please excuse any errors. It's been a real hectic morning.. We were in a suite so I initially started with the Concierge but the outbound calls from the ship wouldn't work because of such a high volume so i used my cell phone and rebooked a little later flight but the latest I could go was 12:50. No idea if we are going to make it or not by that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LetsGetWet! Posted March 23, 2014 #194 Share Posted March 23, 2014 Billion dollar corporations don't communicate through FB. They may advertise or promote, but it is in no way a proper channel for communications. You're just a little behind the times. Billion Dollar corporations most definitely DO communicate via Facebook, all the time. It would be a huge mistake to communicate ONLY on Facebook, but it's also a huge mistake to not include Facebook as one of the communications mediums - as well as Twitter.

They may utilize social media to reinforce a publicly released statement, but it is still not considered an acceptable means for a first line of communications. That is why they ask you for your phone number, email, text address, alternative person to contact and not whether you have liked their FB page.

The not knowing I think is much worse than an answer that you need to deal with. All those people traveling with rccl today should be told so that they can show up later, book an additional night in a hotel, etc. not a good start to vaca. I know it's out of their control but be considerate to these people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
