The sun is shining and it’s a beautiful day here on the east coast of Florida 

 

 

 

Plans are to leave here shortly after 10am and arrive at Port Everglades at 130-200pm.

 

 

 

Where are you staying at that it is going to take you 2 1/2 hours to arrive at the port? Which airport di you fly into?

Hello! 

 

Just checking your report to see if there is any news of boarding.  Are they letting people on the ship?  Inquiring minds would like to know! 

 

Hope all is going well for you.

 

See you soon

Why would we get a partial refund? Not one person is owed that. This cruise has always been a late arrival and a late departure (8pm) because of the ships (Harmony & Allure) changing home ports. Allure could not come to Ft Lauderdale until all her passengers got off in Miami this morning and Harmony could not leave Ft Lauderdale for Port Canaveral until all her passengers got off. Then each port must wait until each port clearance for each ship to come and go.
