Not happy!! Who do I sue??

[2Feathers]

So, we're all excited that our Dream cruise sets sail this Saturday! March 8... DAYLIGHT SAVINGS day! I just realized that someone (the U.S. government? Mother Nature?) is robbing me of ONE FULL HOUR of Fun Ship Fun!!

 

Seriously though, this is the Eastern Caribbean itinerary, so I'm assuming that after the time change we'll be back on the same time as the islands, who don't typically do the whole "Spring Up/Fall Back" thing... Is that correct? I get confused with the whole "ship's time vs. island time" anyway, so maybe this will help keep me straight... But I still think Carnival should offer some sort of compensation ;)

Depending on where you sail, you may gain that hour back, and then lose it again. :D

I'm sorry, but you'll have to treat yourself to another cruise that falls over the switch back to standard time in the fall so you can get an extra hour on board. It's only fair.

LOL reading you title I was about to say go sue the pope..LOL It definitely caught my attention.

I agree with the other posters just go on another cruise to make up the time.. Hope you have great weather next week on your cruise and a great time also and they are offering you compensation they are letting you cruise on their ship:D..

Take good care of the Dream, we have to wait til June to sail on her..;)

[chasinraynbowz]

We are on this same cruise. I am thinking OBC or even a bar credit would work!!! LOL (just kidding)

I don't do math on vacation. Fortunately that includes counting calories...

So were clocks.

So was spring forward, fall back.

I like the way you think! To the OP, please keep the Dream alive for us! We'll be on her in 39 days!!:D

[wantocruisemore]

Bless your heart, you pooooor thing.

 

I have the solution, just give your awful cruise where you lose an hour to me and I will go suffer instead.

 

Seriously though, have a great cruise!!!!

[gtouch]

Not happy!! Who do I sue??

 

I miss the old days when "sue" was a girls name and not a verb......laughing.

[HeidiHo]

That happened to us once. We got cheated out of an hour when the time changed on our last day.

[snc_cam]

I think you should contact the lawyers for the Triumph... :)

[megmno]

So were clocks.

 

And the internet.

[Cruiseaholichal]

Exactly where does that hour go ?-- is it like dryer lint ?

[PROCRUISE]

LMAO... and don't forget to enjoy the cruise first, then file your time change lawsuit! :)

[awhcruiser]

Take Carnival to Judge Judy..Then demand a free cruise for the hour you are losing. :D

[Smart Arsenal Fan]

Little known fact, during DST, if you cruise Caribbean, then immediately cruise West Coast/Baja, then immediately cruise Australia, and so on, and so on... making your way around the globe... you actually get younger! True. Scientific FACT.

Nassau and St Thomas have DST but St Maarten does not. It's harder on the Western cruise because Mexico, Roatan, Belize doesn't switch over until the end of the month (old school) while the US switches over early (sailed in March 2011 and it was very confusing as the time would swing by 2 hours sometimes).

I think George Bush is responsible for Leap Year.
