Getting off original topic but re port fees - My understanding of the regulation is IF the port fees are listed as a separate item then the cruise line must refund them.  Doing it this way , while meaning the money leaves the business, they do get to offer the cruise at the cruise only price that appears to be cheaper.  IF the advertised price has the port fees included without a separate line to the customer then the fees do not have to be refunded - O likes to use this loophole to their advantage. 

OT a bit

 In the early years  I seem to remember  the port taxes & fees were broken down on the invoices   

There was some big ta do in Florida  about  this  &  then  the cruises  were  listed as "all in pricing"

 

I believe here in Canada  tour operators  & TA's still have to  advertise  the "all in price"  unlike many years  ago when  they listed the  extras like taxes  & port fees in tiny teeny  print in the ads   😉

I like Saguenay quite a bit, very pretty port. I never could say it right.
