    If you can’t get ON the ship without an adult you shouldn’t be able to get OFF the ship without an adult. That seams like a no brainer to me.

    I was recently on the Royal cruise and in front of me was and a father and a minor son. We were disembarking. The father got his seapass scanned first and started walking toward the gangway. Next up was his minor son. when the security guy scanned his card. He told him to stop. He wouldn’t let him off the ship. He asked where his parents were. Of course His father was halfway down the gangway. His father had to come back, and get his son before security will let him off the ship.

    • @cruisingal2

      That's exactly how it should be. Minors should have a pic of their parents on the ship computerized manifest so that when they are checked off the ship, they can see that the parents are the one accompanying them off ship. And if multiple people have the authority to take the minor off ship, their pics should be included in the authorized persons that can do so.

  • @suzynoel
    @suzynoel 23 วันที่ผ่านมา +5

    I work at Princess in the Port of Fort Lauderdale and there is such a loss of situational awareness and abdication of personal responsibility among our passengers that we have been trained not to allow any group with minor children out of the terminal building until they are all together. I know the ship has a colored flag onboard their security system alerting them to a minor and they don’t let them on the gangway without their adult. Unfortunately many adults head down the gangway without their children and have to be called back, which backs up the line and annoys waiting passengers. I personally ask every young adult their age because sometimes it is hard to tell how old they are. I had heard in this case there was an issue with the grandmother’s mobility which led to this unfortunate situation but I wasn’t there so I don’t really know. But I do have my more than fair share of horror stories concerning parents/guardians and their cavalier attitude with their offspring while traveling. These ships and these ports are not “Mayberry” and as security conscious as these ships have to be, passengers still have the primary responsibility of care for themselves and the minors in their charge. Particularly with those who have disabilities, either minors or of age.

    Aydin's parents need to supervise their sons internet-computer activities and put restrictions on his electronic devices. For him to contact a male person in Germany and arrange a meeting with him in Warnemuende-Rostock , he needed to be actively involved visiting unsafe websites for minors.. How many other things has he been doing on the internet ? He was found with a 19 year old male in Brandenburg / Potsdam around 120 miles away from the cruise port. Thanks to the fast response from the German police and other German authorities, this nightmare came to a quick end. On German newspapers Aydin's photo made the front page and a lengthy description of the missing teenager disappearing from the Caribbean Princess. I have been travelling with my now 14 year old grandson many times on Princess, and if he walks 2 or 3 passengers ahead of me and the security ask for an adult, my grandson just pointed at any adult behind him and that was ok with Princess. At the time my grandson was allowed off the hip, Princess security does not know which adult is supposed to be with him. Any adult will do. That is Princess's problem, they need to link any minor
    passenger to the correct guardian or parent when disembarking the ship. .

    Amsterdam is not hurting its tourist economy because it is not shutting down all (or even most) tourism, just cruise tourism. Cruises dump a lot of people into town for a brief period of time - and they overrun the city while not contributing to the majority of the local businesses. Non-cruiser tourists spend much more money in the city because they usually stay multiple days there during which time they fill hotel rooms, eat 2-3 meals per day in restaurants, shop in stores that aren't just souvenir shops, and patronize museums, nightclubs, bars and other entertainment venues. Tourism-driven businesses such as canal boats and souvenir shops will still have more than enough tourists without cruise ships. Barcelona is about to do the same thing. And I get it.

Ya, I would give it a little thought before doing the braid thing. Good for JH for making aware. lol, I thought I was the only one who said “snicky snacks”. lol. Glad you enjoyed your family. Happy to see you back. ❤

    I think the policy is in place and pray most crew will enforce it. I cruised last year on RCL with my 3 granddaughters. One was 18 and the other two were 17 and 15. One day, was a bit ahead of them as we were leaving the ship at a port. I checked off, walked down the gangway and waited for the girls. A crew member came to get me to return to the security check out and verify that I was indeed responsible for the girls. They verified all photos and our cabin assignment before they let us go. I was actually happy they were putting safety first.

    In 2019 we went on a family curse with carnival. The only kids were my 2 minors and my cousin minor child so 3 minors all together. My cousin got off the ship for an excursion and we went to go off with my cousins child and my 2 carnivals security stopped us and asked where his father was. We said he got off for a carnival excursion and we were family. They made us wait and looked into it and realized the minor was with his grandmother and we were all in different cabins. They even looked at the children’s camp to see who was able to pick him up and we were all on the list. They let us go off but we were held up for a time. I’m glad the child was found safe.

    We took a cruise, it stopped in Rotterdam, then moved to Amsterdam. What we found was that all the excursion when we were at Rotterdam was in Amsterdam. So when we got to Amsterdam it almost the same toured we took when we were in Rotterdam. So I really don’t think the move that Amsterdam is making will be that impactful to the local businesses.

    Have you ever watched how the hair braiders work? I watched them in Mexico, and they used the same combs for every person with no cleaning between clients. They would also stop and blow their nose into their hands! I was so disgusted by how they worked. I used to be a manicurist and went to beauty school in California, USA, and they were totally unsanitary. At the time I had hair long enough to sit on and super thick, and they were practically begging me to pay to have my long thick curly blond hair braided. I was like "Hell NO!" Y'all ain't being sanitary with your brushes or anything else!" I can't believe the number of people that I have seen do that while down there.

    How about some personal responsibility? We really shouldn't have to be warned about every little thing that could happen in the world. Yes, hot coffee is hot! Yes, scissors are sharp! If people spent half the effort developing a modicum of common sense than they do playing victim they'd be far better off for it.

    I always heard, and it is common sense, that if you get your hair braided in a port, on the street or on the beach, they are not sanitizing the comb and brush. Little critters can spread. Scratch, scratch!

    Thank you for clarifying that the head lice is being spread from the brushes and combs used on different cruise passengers when braiding hair and not from the hair of the actual people doing the braiding. This is important because the last thing we want to portray is that the local people who are braiding the hair are the ones who have the lice to begin with and are spreading it to vacationers visiting the ports.

    Another good commentary Tony. Talking about jacked up prices, years ago you were able to walk up to the customer service counter and they would give you Dramamine for free. I've said it too many times but cruising has evolved in a negative way.
    Head Lice? Funny yet disturbing story. Many years ago I was in Nassua and did what tourist do, I went to a tent on the beach to have my hair braided. There was a line of seats with people braiding hair. The braiders were using spray bottles to moisten the customer's hair. The lady braiding my hair had a spray bottle that sounded different than the others. Then I realized that I was not feeling the mist of the water hitting me. I turned around to see her with her fingers in her mouth loading them up with saliva! I have never been tempted to braid my hair again!

    I recently took a transatlantic cruise that was originally going to disembark in Amsterdam, but instead ended at Ljmuiden, the port on the North Sea at the mouth of the canal leading to Amsterdam. Not a problem at all, especially as it was easy to get to either Amsterdam or the airport. I believe that the government in Amsterdam has a perfect right to restrict the number of visitors in order to improve the quality of life of their residents. Most Americans might have difficulty understanding this concept.

    1. It is good to know the young person has been found but, as you pointed out, how on earth did a minor get off the ship unaccompanied?
    2. Is the issue with Amsterdam and other cruise ports restricting and even closing to cruise ships symptomatic of the change, supersizing, of these ships?
    To lay cards on the table, we prefer smaller ships and would not sail on one of what are essentially floating resorts. Cruising and general tourism are increasingly popular, consequently, many places believe they have too many tourists. Good for a few businesses but not for those living there appears to be the prevailing viewpoint.

    Hi Tony. Happy Sunday, end of the 4th of July holiday. Good for you and your family. This was such a sad story. So glad he was found safe. I'm thinking that rule will change in the near future. I agree, he should not have been allowed off the ship by himself. Flag his cruise card as a minor. All port's and merchant's benefit from tourism. $18.50 for chips. Even $13.00. way to expensive. Maybe $3-4.max. $8.50 still to high. Head lice... Got an itch!! .. People should know that item's used for hair may not be clean. As always thank you for all you do ❤

    That story of the 14-year-old going off by himself gave me a thumping feeling in my heart. Thank goodness he was found unharmed and reunited with his family. Many years ago, my son, then 9, and I were separated at a shopping mall for about 45 minutes. It was the longest, most horrifying 45 minutes of my life. I thank the lord for the fantastic security personnel who searched with me to find him. I grabbed that child and hugged him hard when he was found. He is now 30, but that incident still brings tears to my eyes. I am surprised that minors are allowed to leave a ship unaccompanied by an adult guardian. It seems to me that this would be a logical cruise line policy!
