I've been watching "from afar" while very busy with work and family and, so when you posted something I knew I could trust it. Several others, too, but your posts especially have been very helpful. Thank you. 16 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Copper10-8 Posted April 2, 2020 #2832 Share Posted April 2, 2020 Looks like the purser or crew officer who just came down and went back up; lots of paperwork on this one 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trivia addict Posted April 2, 2020 #2834 Share Posted April 2, 2020 My thanks go out to all of those hard working humanitarians who worked behind the scenes to arrive at a solution. Again, those we will never know but whose hearts and minds will rest easy knowing that they did the right thing. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare POA1 Posted April 2, 2020 #2837 Share Posted April 2, 2020 I doubt I can get a decent photo from here, but there are 7 or 8 ships off Miami. They're easier to see at night and you can make the out with binoculars. The same is happening off Fort Lauderdale. I'm not sure how many are off Fort Lauderdale, because we face south and I can't see them without leaving the bunker. The ships come back to port every once in a while to refuel and re-provision. The Carnival Sunshine spends most days & nights at Terminal 2 in PEV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a wide shot earlier that showed a whole row of ambulances waiting, so probably just allowing a certain number in at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have noticed that as well and wonder why Carnival Sunshine. I think CCL contributed some $$ to have that berth extended. But, why not a rotation of the other Carnival ships?

RocketMan275 Posted April 2, 2020 #2849 Share Posted April 2, 2020 5 hours ago, cdwise said: There aren’t. Single largest group by nationality are US at 306, Canadians, ay 265, UK at 228, AU/NZ at 120 the remainder of all nationalities are less than just the number of US citizens. The ship left Ft Lauderdale I think in Feb. Disembarked some and took on new passengers March 7 in Buenos Aires. Next scheduled itinerary passenger change for those not doing the around the horn full SA cruise was to be Santiago Chile March 23. Holland along with other cruise lines shut down and started trying to get passengers home before reaching Santiago but Chile refused to let the passengers disembark and fly home from either the port before San Antonio or San Antonio so the ship headed straight for its final destination of Ft Lauderdale where it had been due to dock April 7. Asking ports it had been scheduled to stop at along the way to allow them to dock so passengers could get home sooner. Nobody let them dock and it took a lot of pressure to get Panama to let them through the canal. Which was transited in record breaking time. When these folks left whether from Ft Lauderdale or to board in Buenos Aires in early March there were no travel advisories for their itinerary only fro Asia and even then not all Asian countries. So let’s quit applying hindsight and get people home. Excellent summation. Time to man up and get these people home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Copper10-8 Posted April 2, 2020 #2850 Share Posted April 2, 2020 What's standing on the dock right now, among others, is private/contract security for the port (white shirts), USPH (dark blue), CBP (dark blue), ambulance crew and some suits/dude in the red sweater. At least they're wearing facemasks. Oh and tenSECO just came out again 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
