gcorgain Posted January 5, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 5, 2023 There is a good sized group stuck in a Regent provided hotel waiting to get on. Unfortunately the wind is strong and the shop did not dock (yet). We are all just stuck here waiting to see whether the ship comes in. Unfortunately the winds are supposed to be stronger tomorrow. I’m wondering what people on the ship are being told. Our bus/boarding time was 2.5 hours ago. So the natives are getting a little restless.

Anchorbuoy Posted January 5, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Another social media site is reporting that the port is closed. Luggage is being returned to guests cabins. Sounds like a long delay is in process.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBL919 Posted January 5, 2023 #5 Share Posted January 5, 2023 We’re on the ship. We initially were told a slim chance to get to capetown. Huge wind conditions and rocking. Then a pilot boarded the ship this aft with again slim hope. Somehow they docked. Quite a surprise to everyone in these strong winds. We r hoping to make our eve flight. The passengers were all upset and we wondered about you all, the upcoming passengers. Sounds like crisis was averted. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bitob Posted January 5, 2023 #6 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Not the worst travel experience I ve ever had. Lol But the regent rep at table bay was incompetent. Things were handled badly. Information was not disseminated. They sent the wrong list of guests to Westin so checkin further delayed. we are now at the Westin for one night and we board tomorrow. I am titanium with Marriott so I’m happy. In the M lounge with wine and canapés. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gcorgain Posted January 5, 2023 Author #7 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Agree with everything you say bitob. I’m also t the Westin and a titanium member, so I’m ok. But horrible communication. We would have loved to spend some time seeing sites, but given the lack of comms just didn’t feel comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
