We were onboard, shortly after we left the captain jokingly came over the tannoy and apologised for the late passengers. He said they had been buying a rolex, but hadn't learnt how to use it yet 😅

I believe people should be fined for holding up a ship full of passengers. No excuses

If it’s the passengers’ fault, then I agree. But sometimes an excursion will get held up for this or that reason and you can’t get back to the ship on time.

In that case...just leave on time. The fine is the cost of finding your own lodging and way back to ship or home. Unlikely people make that mistake twice.

We just got off Carnival Horizon and we were 20 minutes late. Luckily we were on a Carnival snorkling excursion and they had to wait on all 50 of us. We were late because the catamaran crew were one short when they did the count before leaving the private beach. Some idiot parents had their little girl sleeping under a towel and didn't bother to tell the crew when it was obvious they were counting heads.

We were in the Bahamas and the tenders were slow getting people to shore and we missed a whole day excursion and got no refund. The elevators and all stairways were packed and the people scanning were having issues with the equipment. However, they made sure everyone was told when to be back to keep to their schedule.

The Oasis class ships are some of the best. Even having been on the first Oasis OTS as well as all of her younger sisters, these ships are virtually impossible to tour from bow to stern. In second place with regard to RCCL classes of ships are those from the Quantum iteration. Many more dreams to come.

For me, biggest does not equal best, when it comes to cruise ships! Too many crowds, too many germs.

Sailing time is posted. Back on board time is posted. If you are not on board at sailiing time, you find your own way back home. SHIP SAILS ON TIME!

Our tour guide in Nassau told us that on average 25 people miss their boat every day. That's total between the 4 to 5 ships that dock at one time. At CocoCay, there were 2 boats, we left first. 2 people from our ship missed the boat and had to leave on the second ship. No luggage and had to pay more for the extra days at sea.

We were on Harmony (our first cruise) end of May/beginning of June. My granddaughter loved it and now thinks of Harmony as "her ship." She still wants to go on Icon, though.

Man they were lucky! The gangway was going in. 1 minute later they would not make it. Harmony is coming here to Galveston. Can't wait to see her. I have the first 2 sailings booked on her and 2 more booked in 2024 and 2025.

wow, they'd already started removing the ramp. They really were very lucky to make it on board.

I always arrive at least 2 hours before departure just to avoid this.

Always the entitled few that punish everyone else and don’t even care! I would leave them! Follow the rules losers!

I take an analogue watch set to ship time so there is no chance of fitbits, iPhones etc adjusting automatically if port time differs from ship time.

I saw one of these where the crowd gathered on the ship started a chant of “MORONS! MORONS!”

How are we injecting wokeness into this??

I honestly think that late passengers who are not on an excursion through the cruise line should be charged whatever fees the cruise line gets charged for not departing on time. It’s ridiculous that everyone else is inconvenienced because a few cannot read their watch or understand what “all aboard” time means. We were on a cruise to Bermuda and there was a couple that ended up being left behind because they were late. The took their time walking the pier and didn’t seem to be in a hurry at all, even though the ship had already pulled all the ropes in and was moving away from the pier. The woman just kept using her phone to video the whole thing. We were already more than 30 minutes late departing.

That would be Ideal but They won't have that kind of money. Port fees are very expensive. Some ports need tug boats to tow ships out of port and those tug boats are booked for a particular Time.

No holodeck privileges for them...

Why am I guessing that back in the 1960s and even 1970s pier runners were rare and almost no-one ever missed a reboarding time with a docked ship? Adults were actually adult back then. Knowing that a ship wouldn't wait. Entitlement, tardiness - is a thing that should be reserved for all the children that of course would never be put in this position.

Lucky bastard 😂

If they were on an excursion, sold by Royal Caribbean, then RC guarantees the excursion will get their guests back to the ship… And if it’s late they will hold the ship…
