TheCalicoCat Posted September 20, 2016 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2016 For those of you who do make back-up plans, how do you go about it? You can't possibly book 2 tours & just not go on one. (That wouldn't be fair to the vendor or other people for whom that was their plan A & they can't do it because it is being held as your plan B.) Since my Plan B's right now appear to be last minute type plans, I guess it doesn't matter, but it keeps me thinking! & I appreciate your answers - maybe your answers can steer me towards other Plan B ideas.

take us away Posted September 20, 2016 #2 Share Posted September 20, 2016 What I do is a bunch of internet research to find alternatives for last minute plans for what I want to see and find the where, what, when and the cost. Things like the totem park in Ketchikan and the little train that will take you there - I will find the route, where to catch it, how much for the train and any admission fees. There is a bus to the Mendenhall Glacier that is very reasonable so I had all that info also if my tour did not fly. TI do consider the research as part of the fun before a cruise! Also check the port sites on CC to see what other people may suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimnKaren Posted September 21, 2016 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2016 Or you just might plan more cruises that go to those ports. We have been to several Caribbean ports more than 8 times. We ran out of Plan B items a long time ago. Just book another cruise. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fouremco Posted September 22, 2016 #4 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I spend hours researching excursion possibilities before deciding on a Plan A for each port. The research always includes a DIY walking/public transport option which, in most cases, becomes Plan B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted September 22, 2016 #5 Share Posted September 22, 2016 I save on my IPad's iBooks webpages of port's tour groups, including port's transport maps. If the reserved excursion gets cancelled, we refer to our plan B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
