pmcue Posted November 14, 2021 #26 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Captain announced at 11 that passenger was safe but would not rejoin cruise. We departed around 11:30. No official details given, but lots of gossip 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisequeen4ever Posted November 14, 2021 #29 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Hmmmmm, sounds more like the first officer story most closely mirrors what happened. I wonder what her intention was. Regardless, I hope she’s safe! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Northern Aurora Posted November 14, 2021 #30 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Quite the mystery. Can't help but wonder what happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 14, 2021 #32 Share Posted November 14, 2021 What a nightmare. Do we know if it was a Celebrity excursion? Do Celebrity allow passengers on the “port authorised taxi trips” to the 3 authorised beaches? I know it mentions it on the Barbados port website and other cruise lines allow it also in addition to bubbled excursions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we do find out eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare cruisestitch Posted November 15, 2021 #36 Share Posted November 15, 2021 It does appear that she left the ship by choice and had checked into a hotel. It’s very possible that you will skip Grenada. We did not get notice until embarkation morning that we would be missing that port. Nothing ahead of the cruise.

Etta1213 Posted November 17, 2021 #37 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Maybe she had a spat with her cabinmate, spouse, true love?😃 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipgeeks Posted November 17, 2021 #39 Share Posted November 17, 2021 Will we ever know what happened? Did she leave all her things in her cabin? Was she on the cruise solo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Late at night, you can see her ghostly image in the hallways. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will do their best to wait but when that's not feasible they will cover your travel costs until you're back on the ship. Unexpected fog/weather is the most common reason a ship won't wait and may occasionally even leave a port early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kudos to the captain and celebrity for placing passengers safety above cost . Consider how much it cost to stay in the port longer and lost casino revenue On 11/14/2021 at 6:39 AM, cruisestitch said: Also the engineer can’t get the bonus he/she would get for extra savings on fuel usage….we are having to go a bit faster than originally planned in order to make our next port on time. I've always wondered, can the captain make the decision to stay longer or is it really corporate calling the shots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it is still showing on the website--both the excursion and the port stop there. We are on that cruise too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm quite sure that the decision falls well within the authority of the captain. There may be a cap beyond which the captain may need to discuss with corporate, but captains command their ships with a good deal of autonomy.
