I would be curious how close to their schedule arrival time that people are showing up.
RC has this data. If too many people are showing up too early, it doesn't seem to be making a big impact.
We did that last Christmas for my son. We were visiting relatives first, so we packed an extra suitcase when he was at school with summer/cruise stuff.
On the flight "home" our son didn't pick up on the fact something was amiss until the pilot gave his first update about how long it would take to get to Orlando. He about lost it and thought we were joking.
Advising captains was never the reason they hired him. It was a PR/marketing hire to show RC was serious about the weather and to have someone to talk to passengers, not officers.
True, but when your cruise is going to be affected by a hurricane, it's good to have RC putting out some guidance on what could happen with your cruise.
It doesn't take a meteorologist to do that, but there are plenty of people paranoid about cruise ship weather.
Weather for an airline is a much different beast than weather for a cruise ship. It makes much more sense for an airline to have in house mets than a cruise line.
The only caveat for transfers is that your flight is after a certain time. But if you booked through Air2Sea they won't offer you a flight that's before that certain time.
I don't know if they stagger the transfers.
