Kindlychap Posted December 17, 2007 #1 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I know that one can embark or disembark at a point other than at the end of a cruise, providing the full fare is paid. Or at least I think I do...... Does that include embarkation at a tender port? Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dak Posted December 17, 2007 #2 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I am afraid that I simply cannot resist flouting the 10 post rule. Does "disembarkation at odd places" include jumping from balconies? I understand that practice is becoming quite derigueur in certain cruise lines. :p David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ocngypz Posted December 17, 2007 #7 Share Posted December 17, 2007 It's on a case by case basis and the request must be faxed over to Cunard before hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm grateful - does it make a difference if half the cabin has embarked at the start of the cruise? Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juliecat Posted December 17, 2007 #9 Share Posted December 17, 2007 When I missed the Caronia a couple years ago due to a flight cancellation I had to catch up in Cork/Cobh. They would not let me meet the ship in Guernsey; said they didn't have the right facilities for boarding passengers due to it being a tender port. :( I think it's a bigger deal in the US due to the law that requires foreign flagged ships to visit a foreign port. I've heard of people missing the whole trip due to missing embarkation and the foreign port. Julia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ocngypz Posted December 17, 2007 #10 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Thanks. I'm grateful - does it make a difference if half the cabin has embarked at the start of the cruise? Matthew No, it doesn't. I did that last year with one of my world bookings. Wife boarded at the start of the voyage. Husband not until some 20 days later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Husband not until some 20 days later. I don't see that embarkation would be affected. What about disembarkation? Surely that would be affected by the Jones act within the USA.

jgsmuzzy Posted December 18, 2007 #12 Share Posted December 18, 2007 In 2004, about 6 passengers embarked at St Maarten. That was via tender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
