Disembarkation

3 out of 5

The ship lost my luggage and we searched for almost 1.5 hours for it before someone filed a claim. We thought we had missed our airport shuttle but as we sat on the bus, a security/tsa lady called that they had found my luggage. Where we are not allowed back inside the terminal, it was a hassle to get someone to bring it to us at the door.

Sorry about your luggage at least it was at the end of your cruise and not the beginning

Everybody seems to try to cut on cost these days, pretty soon they will start charging for bread and water... Ridiculous

Ah, security at all costs, even when they make a mistake. As far as food, I suspect many of the cheaper lines will have problems as they try to cut costs to make up for the Covid fiasco where they were blamed for the spread of Covid.
