islegroove Posted January 27, 2015 Author #3 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Government says it isn't giving in on the furlough days so their is an impasse. Ferries and buses are not expected to run tomorrow either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyjones Posted January 28, 2015 #4 Share Posted January 28, 2015 (edited) Yes, we as residents know about this, but since this is not cruise ship season, why on earth are you spreading this bad publicity any further than it needs to go? Posting three times in one day?! Edited January 28, 2015 by jollyjones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
islegroove Posted January 28, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Even though it isn't cruise ship season, doesn't mean only cruisers look at this site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartbda Posted January 28, 2015 #6 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Yes, we as residents know about this, but since this is not cruise ship season, why on earth are you spreading this bad publicity any further than it needs to go? Posting three times in one day?! Good question. Even though it isn't cruise ship season, doesn't mean only cruisers look at this site. Wouldn't they just go to the source, one of the newspapers, rather than coming here to be directed to the papers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jollyjones Posted January 28, 2015 #7 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Even though it isn't cruise ship season, doesn't mean only cruisers look at this site. A very weak answer. Those abroad who choose to follow Bermuda events via the news websites will already know. Why do you feel the need to push these bad tidings further?

wwcruisers Posted January 29, 2015 #8 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Sorry to hear about the political/labor unrest in Bermuda. :( I do hope that the transportation issue is worked out before cruise season. One of the great attractions of a Bermuda cruise is the wonderful (and affordable) bus/ferry system. Looking forward to our return on Summit, this May! :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
