BillHoo Posted June 6, 2022 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2022 (edited) My embarkation would have been smoother if the Security at Port Liberty NJ knew the difference between a surge protector and a 3-prong extender. They confiscated this: Yet, they allowed this which was in my other bag: Go figure! I got it back at the end of the cruise. I saw it was keeping company with about two dozen surge protectors on their "naughty items" table. Edited June 6, 2022 by BillHoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly333 Posted June 6, 2022 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2022 They took a smallish 6 or 9 ft regular extension cord from me in miami. I used it so my ligjted electric clock could sit on the desk and could be turned to the bed to see the time at night. Removed it from the clock lol. Just never know. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you tell your taxi/uber driver to take you to Port Liberty??? Cape Liberty is the name of the cruiseport in Bayonne. There is no Port Liberty though using it only serves to confuse as Port Liberte in Jersey City does exist. Smoother if cruisers knew the difference.

Smoother if cruisers knew the difference. My Floridian in-laws couldn’t understand why their cab driver didn’t know where “BAY-on-eeeee” was. I just sat there and laughed and laughed. The people who grew saying things like “Okeechobee” and “Kissimmee” correctly couldn’t say Bayonne. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious that the confiscated one is a "Real" extender and the allowed one is an "Enhanced" extender. 😜 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they should, because an extension cord is a prohibited item on RCCL. As far as they are concerned, per policy, it falls in the same list as guns, knives, and explosives as items you can not bring onto the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
