Hmm....its not the comment that is ignorant. Just saying......

Just saying what? Dont try to be coy. If you have something to say then say it.

Yes -your comment Is the "best ignorant comment yet."

A motorcycle or a cement mixer may seem like "different" things until there's an accident. It's "pilot error" that is the "big difference" in whether that vehicle (or that drone -whatever ilk it may be) is the main factor that causes a safety issue.

As another poster mentioned, the cruise line's ban is self-protection from self-proclaimed yet often inexperienced or idiotic operators of equipment that the cruise line has no way of knowing is in a safe-to-operate condition.

Buy the video.

And this is completely understandable. Because they don't know anything about operators it is safest to ban them from being used on board. They certainly are responsible for their passengers while aboard the ship.

I will either ship my drone to a holding location beforehand, rent one in port, not cruise in Hawaii, or not worry about it.

No, there's not a "big difference." They're both DRONES, which in the hands of a passenger could cause all sorts of problems. Buy the video

Best ignorant comment yet. Thanks for the laugh.

Drones have a lot of liability. I support NCL's policy.

Not trying to justify anything but so does alcohol consumption.

I doubt I will take the drone or I will just cancel the cruise and fly over and stay a week.

Not looking to push the issue or whine about it. Was just curious mostly. I have other cameras to use that don't fly unless I throw them. :D

I wish you luck but I don't hold much hope that you'll prevail.

I don't hold much hope either. It is ok though. If I decide drone footage is the most important thing I will just cancel my cruise and fly over. Then I can do what I want.

 

Per the NCL Faq: "Drones (Game Flying Device)

Guests are not permitted to bring drones onboard for safety of other guests, as well as the welfare of the

This is a part that is confusing. There is a big difference between a game flying drone and a photography drone.

I am an amateur photographer and recently purchased a drone for a trip to Hawaii. Instead of flying over and just staying on one or two islands, we decided to do a cruise. Apparently drones aren't allowed on board Norwegian. I was wondering if anyone has ever been successful at getting the cruise line to allow the drone on board but to be stored in the security office except for shore excursions.

Thanks in advance.
