jgh1204 Posted December 11, 2016 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Watching the cruise cam in Galveston this morning and they are using level 0. Doesn't look like the ramp is hooked up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgh1204 Posted December 11, 2016 Author #2 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Further research shows the ramp is out of order. Wonder if that will slow down debark and embark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted December 11, 2016 #3 Share Posted December 11, 2016 http://www.galveston.com/cruisevideocam/ I feel like a sick voyeur, watching all these people have that feeling I know and hate... "back to reality"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted December 11, 2016 #5 Share Posted December 11, 2016 I haven't been counting, but it sure seems like I've watched over 3,000 people disembark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisinpips Posted December 11, 2016 #9 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Has anyone heard what the issue is? Has anyone heard when they hope to have this issue fixed? We embark three weeks from today, hopefully this is fixed by then. :D:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare IntrepidFromDC Posted December 11, 2016 #10 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Look at those people barely making it. They started to pull up the ramps and nets a few minutes ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WLHyatt Posted December 11, 2016 #11 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Back in May, they had issues with the gangway too. We embarked via the gangway, but a week later they said it was having serious issues and they would not put passengers on it. We disembarked via deck 0. It was actually EASIER to disembark there because you walk across the dock and right into the luggage area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwth2005 Posted December 12, 2016 #15 Share Posted December 12, 2016 The webcam operators in Galveston are on point. Any cam that has a potential view of the cruise ships coming in and out will pan and zoom to keep up with jt.

JaniceB Posted December 12, 2016 #16 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) Any word on what's wrong with the gangway? Edited December 12, 2016 by JaniceB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adam3313 Posted December 12, 2016 #17 Share Posted December 12, 2016 This occurred on my Sunshine cruise in March. They shuttled people from Deck 3 into elevators to go down. I had FTTF so not sure how much it slowed everything down, but I'm sure it did! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2003Cruiser2017 Posted December 21, 2016 #18 Share Posted December 21, 2016 We are leaving on the 1st for a cruise out of Galveston, can anyone tell me how long the boarding process is with the Faster to the Fun and a check in slot of 10am? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DebJ14 Posted December 21, 2016 #19 Share Posted December 21, 2016 We are leaving on the 1st for a cruise out of Galveston, can anyone tell me how long the boarding process is with the Faster to the Fun and a check in slot of 10am? Thanks If you enter the terminal check at 10 am check in will be quick. Then, you will cool your heels until boarding begins, which can be anytime between 11:00 and 1pm, depending on what time they docked, how fast they got the previous passengers off and got a zero count, if they have a Coast Guard or USPH inspection, full CBP review of the crew etc. They will board any weddings first followed by the Diamond guests, Platinums, suites and FTTF. We cruised out of Galveston in September and November. In September boarding began at 11:30am. There were several wedding parties and it took them about 15 minutes to get them onboard before they started boarding the Diamond guests. In November there were no weddings on our sailing and they started boarding with the Diamond guests at 11:20am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jwth2005 Posted December 22, 2016 #21 Share Posted December 22, 2016 If I'm not mistaken it should be deck 3 just aft of the forward elevators Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
