kford0405 Posted September 29, 2015 #1 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Today we arrived in San Juan and after touring the island for a couple hours, we were surprised that we are not allowed to get back on the ship. Apparently there was a "verbal physical threat made to the ship" so no one is allowed to get on, and folks who remained on board are not allowed off. There are dozens of police and fireman around the area and at the ship's entrance. We are suppose to disembark at 10 pm, it's only 7:15 right now. Anyone else know what's going on?

bilyclub Posted September 29, 2015 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2015 Sounds like somebody phoned in a bomb threat. That would explain fire being there too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kford0405 Posted September 30, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted September 30, 2015 It was a bomb threat but we are finally back on the ship. The captain just announced that we were faced with a security incident that has now been resolved. Thank goodness. We should still leave on time.

Merion_Mom Posted September 30, 2015 #20 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Anyone remember a dozen years or so ago when a teen girl was on a cruise with her family, didn't want to be there, wanted to be home with her boyfriend, and left a bomb threat in a bathroom, hoping that they would turn the ship around and return home?
