How long should it take to realize that smuggling alcohol/ drugs aboard the ship or smuggling them through U.S. Customs and Border Protection is against the cruise line's policies and a violation of Department of Homeland Security laws?
It took me about 90 minutes to read all the policies sent to me by Princess, including the terms of carriage contract. If you read that, did you immediately think that Princess was trying to be a so-called "moral authority" ? I didn't. What does "moral" have to do with it? Seems to me as if cruise line sets down those policies for very sound, logical reasons.
Same thing with the laws against smuggling drugs/alcohol into the U.S.A.
Why would passengers encourage others to violate the policies of the cruise line, along with the laws of U.S. Customs and Border Protection?
Last week, we were on the phone with a travel planner at Princess. Apparently, many staff members at Princess read this board. How much interest does Princess mgmt. have in affiliating with CC when they see passengers openly encouraging others to violate the policies of the cruise line and the laws of the Dept. of Homeland Security?
How much interest does Princess have in supporting CC when passengers advise other passengers that they don't need to attend Muster Drill?
What part of this is not understandable? Doesn't take very long for most reasonable adults to discern that no means no.
My post has absolutely nothing to do with flaunting the rules,it has to do with who has given you the right to preach to other adults?

My remarks that were dragged up from 3 years ago had nothing to do with smuggling.There was a CC member advertising, on the roll call that he knew all the employees at the Brooklyn and was bragging how he could use his influence to get the entire roll call into the preferred boarding area thereby taking all the seating from the people that earned the status.

....and do you remember posting this?
As an Elite with twice as many cruises as you,I resent you breaking the rules so those of us that have earned this benefit would be turned away.I am forwarding your posts directly to Princess!
And what relevance might that have when I am commenting about a CC newby preaching to the choir about the rules that 99% of us adhere to?I have never encouraged nor advised anybody to break any rules!

There's more and more threads like this one, where the topic is how to break the rules and get away with it, or how to "fly below the radar", I guess you would call it. I've seen threads recently on :
1. How to avoid paying gratuities and why they are unnecessary.
2. How to purchase street drugs in port and how to smuggle them on.
3. How to smoke tobacco and weed on the balcony and not get caught.
4. How to smuggle items, including alcohol past Customs when entering te country.
5. How to avoid filling out the health questionnaire and how to avoid staying in the cabin while sick.
6. How to avoid using the Purell dispenser in the dining venues and why not to wash hands as advised.
7. How to avoid attending Muster Drill.
8.If you cannot locate a trash can, then throw trash on the floor and "those people" ( crew members) will learn their lesson.
I don't get this........is it because people here dislike the cruise lines and take a cynical viewpoint? Or......the craving for alcohol is so great that one cannot walk to the bar or order the small bottles from room service?
Am I missing something here? or is this just the way CC has always been?:o
Yes, I do realize that I don't have to read it.....but I was just wondering.
Just 3 months on cruise critic and you are the moral authority?

The other cruisers on this thread are opining about what they do and don't do on a cruise.You have taken it upon yourself to PREACH to them like they are little children and you are their parent.It must be a tremendous burden being the moral authority for an entire cruise line! Just MYOB!
