Review summary

We booked a post cruise excursion to get us back to Ft. Lauderdale. We weren’t told until we got to our room that it was canceled. Had to scramble to find something instead of enjoying my trip. They should have told us before via email.

Even though you had to pick a time to make things safe, there was still a long line.

We were told they would email room bill. They didn’t do that again. You can’t call for it you have t on open a ticket and wait. My wife had food poisoning. We were told the medical would be free. I showed a negative balance when I left the ship but still got a new change on my CC. If it is medical I need t on turn it i. Had to ask multiple times to get my wife’s release papers. Never got the wheel chair assist we asked for again and again.
