crsinmo Posted January 1, 2006 #1 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Sitting down with my coffee for my normal Sunday ritual of seeing the Conquest in port on live cam. It's not there! Anyone know where she is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j.c.in.okc Posted January 1, 2006 #2 Share Posted January 1, 2006 It is kinda strange she's not there. Looks kinda foggy there so maybe they are running late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendaB1 Posted January 1, 2006 #3 Share Posted January 1, 2006 It is very foggy there. The ship may be docked there but because of the fog, we can't see it. Keep watching. Hopefully the fog will burn off soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxax Posted January 1, 2006 #4 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Good Grief!!! That is some fog!!! I figure though...that it is THERE...you just can't see it through the fog!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crsinmo Posted January 1, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I have been watching it for awhile. Sometimes it clears up a little. Unless it just pulled in, its not there. I can see the boards lighting up already with posters tonight and tomorrow wanting a free cruise for the delay. LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrendaB1 Posted January 1, 2006 #6 Share Posted January 1, 2006 The fog seems to be getting worse. Humidity is 100% right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cindy Posted January 1, 2006 #7 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I just checked the webcam. You can just barely see the edge of the pier, and there isn't a ship there. The Conquest must be delayed because of the fog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BonnieJeansMum Posted January 1, 2006 #12 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Perhaps they have a policy simular to the airlines regarding weather. It's an act of God! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mummy Posted January 1, 2006 #13 Share Posted January 1, 2006 I just called Carnival customer service. They expect the Conquest to be docking between 11AM and 11:30AM (CST) today. It's still extremely foggy, and the RCCL ship hasn't arrived yet either. It's nice to be able to see her arrive during daylight hours -- I haven't been able to see her perform her 180 in the channel before. Next week at this time, I'll just be getting ready to check out of the Harbor House and head over to the cruise terminal. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crsinmo Posted January 1, 2006 Author #19 Share Posted January 1, 2006 First time I have got to watch her dock on daylight also. Have watched her leave several times in summer when it was light. This morning was a nice scene. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeM Posted January 1, 2006 #20 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Weather delays are not an airline compensated problem. Only mechnical problems with aircraft will qualify. I would supose that the ship being 6 hours late will cost alot of air travlers(non Carnival) a bunch. You never know, what makes life an adventure. We have 5:30 air in May and would be sweating that under the same circumstances. 2-3 hours to get off ship, 2 hours to IAH, and security wait.

irishgirl Posted January 1, 2006 #21 Share Posted January 1, 2006 When I was on the Sensation in 2002, we were fogged out of Tampa bay and arrived about 6 hours late. Our travel insurance covered everything. The cost of rebooking air, hotel for the night and food. This is why you should always have insurance. I never travel without it, I've had to use it too many times, always at the end of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeM Posted January 1, 2006 #22 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Judy Your entirley right. Last March we were late to Dallas from Ft. Lauderdale and missed our flight due to weather in Florida. Had to stay overnight. Insurance payed all reasonable expenses. Note: Make sure you save all receipts, flight stubs and document every thing. You will need it when you file a claim.

Jerry101 Posted January 1, 2006 #23 Share Posted January 1, 2006 Looks like its going to be a fun departure also!! What a pretty shot with the lights on in the fog...:p http://www.kroooz-cams.com/ports/galveston-frame2.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerdog Posted January 1, 2006 #24 Share Posted January 1, 2006 WOW! Look at her now, in the fog! You can barely see her, even with her lights on. I'm sure her debarkation will not be at 6 since it was several hours late getting in this morning. I guess the Captain will certainly have to use his computerized guiding equipment to get them out to the gulf since they obviously can't see with their eyes!!:eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
