wspatton Posted May 8, 2004 #1 Share Posted May 8, 2004 Good Morning!! We Fly into San Juan Airport on Sunday Afternoon 5/9/04 to Board the Golden for an 11 p.m. sailing. We are told that the Taxi Drivers in San Juan are on Strike. But I figured, "No Problem - I have a Princess Transfer." Should I be able to assume that the Princess-furnished Transfers will operate regardless of the status of the Strike? <FONT SIZE="5"><FONT COLOR="#000000">Bill & Mary</FONT></FONT> <FONT SIZE="3"><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Golden Princess: May 9, 2004</FONT></FONT> Leaving: <FONT SIZE="4"><span style="border:blue double 5px;"><span style="background-color:#000066;"><tt><FONT COLOR="#33CCFF">~ {TOMORROW!!!} ~</span></span></FONT></FONT></tt></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Coral Posted May 8, 2004 #2 Share Posted May 8, 2004 I would only be worried if you had planned to take a taxi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wspatton Posted May 8, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted May 8, 2004 I tried calling Princess and they don't know anything other than that the transfers are Motor Coaches [not taxis]. My concern is that some "for hire" drivers other than taxi drivers are running into trouble at the airport (reportedly). I also tried Princess web site but as usual they are down. <FONT SIZE="5"><FONT COLOR="#000000">Bill & Mary</FONT></FONT> <FONT SIZE="3"><FONT COLOR="#FF0000">Golden Princess: May 9, 2004</FONT></FONT> (A 25th Anniversary First Cruise....

flapr Posted May 8, 2004 #4 Share Posted May 8, 2004 I just read a report on-line by El Nuevo Dia, Puerto Rico's largest newspaper, that the taxi drivers' strike is now over. Tentative agreement to end the strike, that was reached late yesterday, was ratified by all parties today, and the strike is officially over.
