    Get rid of the bridge.  Tampa traffic isn't that bad.

    For sure.  Three to four years of speculation and rumors.  I'll start...
    I hear they are building a port for her in Denver, CO.

    Okay, I don't often make this offer, but here goes.  I'll sail in your name if you pay for it next week.  Then you can be Diamond now!
    Call my toll free number if you are interested in earning Diamond Plus status.

    I think this thread has served a purpose.  Cruisers old and new have learned the ship will actually leave without you when you don't return in time.  Of the 6,000 on board, 5,998 made it back. 
    I was on a cruise two weeks ago and I saw 60 - 80 people slowly walking up the pier well past all aboard time.  None were in a hurry.  One drunk girl lay on the concrete pier and rested (or passed out) .   I had to check my watch thinking I was an hour off.  I wasn't.  Crew were waving to them to hurry up.  The bridge blew the ship's horn.  People are way too cavalier and just assume the world revolves around them. 
    I tire at the muster drill waiting for the stragglers to show up.  I tire on an excursion waiting for people who show up late.  
    Hopefully this video will serve to educate everyone that a ship will leave without you.  It is your responsibility to be on time.
    The cruise community has a name for these types of people.  "Pier Runners" and it transcends all cruise lines.   
    This is about personal accountability and yes, two ships full of passengers will make fun of you when you miss the ship.  
    Lesson learned - don't be late.

    I'm still mulling over the reduction in FCC because I used a travel agent.  If booked direct you would get 50% FCC.  Because I used a TA I only get 37% FCC.  
    Granted it's only a $98 difference but it's the whole sleazy way it's being calculated base on some secret figure I can't determine because I used a TA.
    A user on CC claims he booked a non-suite cabin through Club Royale for only taxes and fees yet he is getting more than double my FCC.  Easiest return on gambling he has ever seen and he gets his taxes and fees back.  
    The cancelation is easy enough to get over, ship happens.  It's the way they treat you through the process that illustrates how poorly they think of you.

    There is at least one CLS that is designated as accessible.  Has it's own elevator within the suite to the second level and the bathroom is different to suit accessible needs.
