Don’t understand the gripes of those who have to wait to board their ship. Waiting in lines is a fact of life,
Nearly 50 cruises and I’ve done my share of waiting at cruise terminals in various parts of the world. Some have been easy some have been longer than I would have liked, A memory of a particular line in July trying to get through Customs in Vancouver is notable and gives me shudders.
But don’t we all wait in lines every day?
Supermarket, airports, Disney World, sports events, restaurants, tourist attractions, etc, and for some like myself, even ferries! But no one complains to them.
Face it, it’s a crowded world and blaming a cruise line for too many people trying to get onboard is not fair.
The workers, who are trying to deal with all types of people and problems are doing their best. And to blame a particular cruise line for a terminal that is operated by a municipal entity is unfair.
I can only think that waiting to embark bothers so many is because they know what a fabulous vacation is ahead of them and they are very anxious to begin it!
