Diver2014

We were on Mariner of the Seas last month. I was using a 'rollator' since I just had knee surgery. One of the Windjammer staff always hustled right over and carried my plate and silverware to a table then brought me my drink after parking my rollator out of the way. I couldn't have been happier.

If something happens while you are in port, such as being hit by a car or missing the ship, you are going to wish you had your passport with you. It doesn't do you any good in your safe on board the ship.

I don't think there is an 'uptick' in disturbances but rather news of anything that happens on a ship nowadays travels faster and wider via the media than previously. Seems wherever alcohol is served and there are groups of inebriated people, they think they are the only ones on the ship and could care less about their behavior. Just a fact of life. Most people are polite and are cruising for a good time.
