There seems to be a growing movement to ban or restrict cruise ships at ports around the world.

When in port, has a local resident ever given you attitude because you are a cruise ship passenger?

I'm looking at a cruise on Poesia in May 2024. It lists two stops at the same port (Ronne, Denmark) three days apart. Seems unusual.

Carnival website is showing just one Canada/New England sailing in 2024 (Sep 7) and none in 2025.

Thank you for your response. When I click on "View and print your documents" it says "You have no cruise documents available". The cruise is to Labadee.

I'm cruising first time on Royal Caribbean on Nov 15.  I've accessed my boarding pass online but there's no sign of luggage tags. How do I get them? Thanks

Flatulence Of The Seas

Besides water, what are the beverage options at Windjammer Cafe? (Independence Of The Seas)

I'm looking at a Greenland cruise on Grandeur Of The Seas (Sep 2024). I know Nanortalik and Qaqortoq are tenders. Is Nuuk a port or tender?  Concerning the tender ports, how often are they cancelled because of weather? Thanks.

To me, a suite is when the bedroom is a separate room from the rest of the cabin. I've seen instances when they call a cabin a suite simply because there's a sofa and small table next to the bed. 

Are taxis between Port Miami and Miami Airport flat rate? If so, what is the amount? Thanks.

Thank you for the explanation.

I'm looking at a cruise on Divina from Civitavecchia on September 22. The title says "7 nights". However, the itinerary lists days 1 through 9, which means 8 nights.

It's also really exciting to see the WIDE diversity of people onboard this time......

To put it politely, it was a very 'white' cruise back in July 2022. 

So what? If the July 2022 cruise that you're referencing had been a very 'asian' cruise or a very 'hispanic' cruise or a very 'black' cruise, would you be on here talking about the lack of "diversity"?

I'm looking at a Canada/New England cruise from New York that sails the last week of September. I'm trying to decide if I want to splurge for a balcony. My favorite time to sit on the balcony is late at night, but I don't want to be freezing out there. What nighttime temperatures should be expected at sea the end of September?

If I decide halfway through the cruise that I want wifi for my tablet, will they prorate the cost for the number of days remaining or will I have to pay the full package price?

I will be on MSC Divina in a few weeks and the last day of the cruise is Ocean Cay (until 10:00pm). Will they have the lighthouse show or do they only do it when the ship is staying overnight?

Hello. In a few weeks I'm sailing on MSC Divina for the first time. I have a Fantastica balcony. 

Are there electrical outlets at the bed? 

Does the room have any built-in USB ports?

Other than water, what are the free beverage options at the buffet?

Thank you.

How much does it cost?

I was on Paradise a few months ago, and it seemed that (at least for lunch) if you weren't actually naked, they let you in.

Thank you for your response.

In the Cayman Islands, is it acceptable to tip tour guides in US Dollars?  

Thank you for your responses.

I'm on Carnival Sunrise March 6 - March 11 and we will be at Grand Cayman on March 8. There are four other ships at Grand Cayman that day (Carnival Vista, Celebrity Edge, Norwegian Sky, Norwegian Prima). I've never been to Grand Cayman. With all those ships, how congested will the tender port be? Should I expect a long wait to get back to the ship? Thanks.

On Carnival Sunrise, do you pay for self-service laundry with coins or card? Thanks.

Thank you for your responses
