I’m surprised there aren’t more videos tbh.

Looks like they have cleared the boat and we are waiting for shuttles

According to this person live tweeting from the location, emergency personnel seem to be packing up and leaving

Someone did this same stupid crap in SanJuan in 2013. In the middle of boarding they had to clear the terminal. We all had to move out to the parking lot. This went on for 3 Hours. They found nothing. It was a treat standing in the hot sun on blacktop in June.[emoji29]

Possible bomb threat on Freedom only according to a Facebook group i follow. One of the group's members is in line to board and that is what they reported. All other ships are boarding except Freedom.

We have moved a little. Someone on Twitter posted a pic of the police and the bomb squad leaving.

Great news!

I don't see that being likely. There is nothing wrong with an overabundance of caution from the authorities checking out a report like this... But if there were a large number of explosives in the port (or even if they believed it possible or likely) they would immediately move the ships out and close the entire port. The media loves to speculate and create attention for itself... One reason I despise them (one of many).

Agree...

Daughter and family are all checked in an in cabin. Going to get drinks, and check our granddaughter into kids club. Normally they do it in terminal, or right inside ship with wrist bands, but I guess with all the delays, and just trying to get all the backed up passengers on board they didn't have kids club sign ups available.

Turned out to be just a private security firm's explosive sniffing dog "hitting" on a pallet of supplies that was already on the ship. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/broward/article208281554.html

:D:DSorry I didn’t post until now. Something about no data or WiFi. I’m posting three days later from Costa Maya.

 

Anyway, everything was pushed back an hour or so. Muster was at 5:15 PM. Sail away was at about 7. The dinners and shows were pushed back an hour. We made it to our first port, Grand Cayman, in time.

 

Having a great time.
