I just came back from 3 day cruise. The porters basically wanted money to get your luggage on board. Period. This is the truth, Now, they wont say they wont take it but he was so hostile that we could not take a chance and had to bring our luggage on board. I am going to be calling carnival tomorrow. We took another 3 day cruise months before and the same thing happened. The only difference is the porters at this cruise looked like my luggage would never reach the ship. At other ports, a totally different experience. They were excited to take our luggage and get it on board safe and sound with not even a hint of wanting money.
A note to carnival. Raise the price of the cruise and higher your own baggage folks. I pay the higher price. Unless you like them to shake down your customers before they board
