Pride is Still in Port

[sunonfire]

Pride arrived this morning from Europe. She was scheduled to leave at 5 pm.  She is still (9:15 pm) at the Port of Tampa. Has anyone heard anything?

She just left at 9:30.

Yes, all winter until mid April when she will go for dry-dock prior to returning to Europe.

Well, since it just arrived from Europe, the ship had to go through a full inspection. Full coast guard, full immigration for the crew, etc. That probably delayed everything. The delays probably caused an issue to provision.

I was on the ship from Oct 11 until Saturday.  Yes, disembarkation was very slow.  That was fine for me since my flight wasn't until after 4 pm.

 

All immigration lines were open but two were being used for crew members.  We didn't even start off the ship until about 9:45 and the lines were still very long.  But they moved along quite quickly, imo.
