emmy Posted June 16, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 16, 2017 Two passengers almost missed the ship today June 16/17 . Captain was kind and opened up the gangway door and was assisted by dockmaster Willy to allow the girls to board.

df5250 Posted June 17, 2017 #5 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Very lucky! I just happened to have the web cam running in the background while I was working today and caught the whole thing live! I wasn't sure they were going to open the gangway for them! The web cam operator didn't miss a step! Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gershep Posted June 17, 2017 #6 Share Posted June 17, 2017 I just don't get how people don't understand when to be back on the ship. A couple of weeks ago on the Gem we waited for one person. They should be fined. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BirdTravels Posted June 17, 2017 #7 Share Posted June 17, 2017 We were in Cabo in April and there were three sets of runners there. Cabo is a tender port where the ship anchors outside the harbor. The ship had pulled anchor and was slowly rotating with thruster. Over a 20 minute period, three separate private tenders came rushing out to the ship and the captain allowed them to transfer aboard. Those few last drinks and a couple of hundred dollars to hire a private tender to avoid getting stranded in Mexico! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare mking8288 Posted June 17, 2017 #9 Share Posted June 17, 2017 The Gem's captain waited (?) and delayed sailing from Port Canaveral for almost 75 minutes ... several weeks ago, as 2 or more pax never made their way back to the port, for whatever reasons (names of several paged over the PA system before 9 PM scheduled sailing). Gangways pulled away but stayed at the pier, finally ... security unloaded luggages & belongings to port worker (ship agent ?) then pulled up the smaller gangway on deck 3, released the ropes and set sail around 10:15 PM. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170502/a75401570ba393ba7a3d7c956dad4a27.jpg http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170502/97a9c46d328864b8b1f7e3a31e371577.jpg Those 2 at Dockyard had a lot of folks to be thankful for ... looked like they're returning from the beach. Their passenger records should be noted & blacklisted on future sailings, at a minimum ... Willie & crews on the dock had to wait and don't they also hold up the tugboat as it would escort the ship out the shipping channel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NLH Arizona Posted June 17, 2017 #11 Share Posted June 17, 2017 Maybe if the Captains would leave on time, thus leaving those that are late sitting on the dock, people would take being on time more seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NH Cruisers Posted June 18, 2017 #12 Share Posted June 18, 2017 If we could only know the details, there may have been circumstances beyond their control. Or maybe they are habitually late for everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
