I never noticed that the open-air cabanas on HMC were air conditioned when I walked past them the last time I was there! Lol! The two NY city council members must be up for re-election or pandering to some environmental group. I love how they come up with comparisons to idling diesel trucks emissions to a cruise ship docked. I wonder who did the math for them too? Thanks for the update Doug!
Morning Doug! Checking in from a rainy but still lovely Nassau, Bahamas aboard the Carnival Elation. 🙋🏾♀️ I totally understand the open air cabanas and AC concerns. But with no changes to the rental costs, my guess is that Carnival is trying to supplement their portion of the impending Bahamas tax increases with as little out-of-pocket expense as possible. Kudos to NY for their efforts to reduce emissions from the docked cruise ships. Although I’m sure the expense of funding the onshore power will hit cruise consumers in the wallet somehow, someway. But it won’t stop us cruising…lol. My favorite cruise ship venue to date has been The Chef’s Table. Thanks for the updates DP! Stay blessed my friend. ✌🏾🚢 🥰
I booked one of those in May for $600. The air conditioner did help. We won't go ashore at Half Moon Cay anymore. It gets too hot and there's no shade.
Ok I missed something. How are the ships supposed to have shore power if there’s a part missing? Surely they can’t mandate it if they can’t supply it???!!!
Guy's is the best!! Also, interesting when politicians pull stats out of their rear and no one questions their agenda. They're just working to win ESG points
Morning Doug Wow that's alot to rent a cabana for the day on the island .I bet more and more ports will try to come more natural effectent.Ty for your updates have a wonderful day 😊
It's not a lot for the cabanas when you divide it among the number of people using it. Friends of mine has a group of 12 rent the 2 story for the day and it worked out great for them.
@@damonb4826 we have only been to Disney Castaway Cay we spend the morning on the beach have lunch then head back to ship for some quiet time by the pool so yes our family would not get our moneys worth
@@damonb4826 No, actually it's quite reasonable considering how many people it can accommodate. It's also supply and demand. There's only a handful of them and there's usually a couple thousand people on the beach.
Mornin' Doug!! Interesting bit of news today! I'd be really interested in knowing who sold air conditioning a building that's missing a whole wall to the company in the first place. I definitely want to stay out of their used car lot. "We want ALL the cruise ships to plug in lest we choke and die (I question the councilman's statistics. I think you have "cherry pick" a very specific combustion byproduct to get there.) but we can't support a single one today." Hopefully clearer heads can dial it back to something reasonable and achievable, if that's really the way they want to go.
Riduclous price on cabanas. Started at $199 on our 1st cruise. I didn't complain about the $350 but damn. More than $500 for some shade, 6 cans of pop & stale tortilla chips & guac?! No way.
Morning Doug Omg that's awful.hopefully the passenger will get through this What the Hell was the bartender thinking Dam. Woohooo Lester family Congrats .ooo love the photo Ty for your updates good or bad .Have a wonderful Friday 😊
Wow. Imagine going to a beach, without AC lol Am I in the minority or what? A beach cabana, in my mind, is supposed to be a shaded tent like structure, not an Air Con building ? Also 699 for a few hours ? I see a second cruise in my future rather than a cabana lol just saying.
Totally understand about ships plucking in. New York you make rules yet offer no plan. Add that to your growing list of major issues in the city. I say that as someone who lived in New York City for many years and now travels into the city each month for business. Can’t wait to get my favorably priced, get your own food and drink cabana. Lol. Dios Mio. Thanks Doug.
Wed news Inc new topics! Great hear NYC aiming to electric hook. The huts in Half Moon island $$ mo 'sense'! Dec temp ok, I did horse ride & stingray exc, eat buffet then back to ship. At 71 no cabana hut for me😊 great report.
Hi Doug. Hope your day is going well…I am a happy camper just booked 2025 Transatlantic grand Mediterranean cruise on Sun Princess👏👏👏 Thanks for all the cruise info🚢😊
Annoys me how on Cruise Cam you see tons of Cargo Ships and Pleasure Craft in Newyork Harbour but they pick on the 2 or 3 Cruise Ships that Visit per day.
Thank you for the news. Carnival Cruise Line has notified guests planning to rent a cabana on their private island, Half Moon Cay, that air conditioning units in the structures will be replaced with fans.
Typical government legislation that put the cart before the horse. I'm sure many cruise ships would like to (and can) use shore power IF SHORE POWER WAS AVAILABLE!
I don’t understand how Guys burgers is even listed un the top three. It’s over cooked. The taste is coming from the sauce, etc not the burger which is not very good.
Wow!!!!! $$$$$$$$ Doesn't affect me. I am happy to just sit in the shade under some trees (after the pirate ship) on a lounge chair. I am not Boujee lol. Wondering if Grand Turk is next? Safe travels!
I love Royal Caribbean but shouldn't they be embarrassed they didn't get a restaurant in the top 5 at all? NCL has two but Royal had none. They need to step it up food wise.
WHO, WHO rents those cabanas? It blows my mind how people do things like this are the same ones who are always broke. If you can afford that much money for a one day cabana, why are you cruising Carnival?
Typical NY politics pass a law without a plan to allow constituents abide by said law. In this case must use shore power but no plan to install shore power on the pier in Manhattan. Similar to legalizing marijuana without a plan on how it should be sold!
An air conditioner for an open structure doesn't cool the structure properly, who would have thought???
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅👊👊👊👊
Makes no sense but I had 1 and it was awesome
We were just there last weekend, but no changes were made. We paid 80 dollars for a clamshell with 2 chairs . It's just as good

$900 for the 2 story cabana is almost as much as a 7 day cruise.
That's crazy!!

Thanks for watching the channel. Have a nice day!
As of 2007, every commercial truck diesel engine manufactured produces almost no smoke. Unlike the smoke this bill is blowing.
Guys Burger Joint is no joke!! Love the food!! Planning to go there again...real real soon!! 😁😁😁

Cruise lines to NYC..... Bayonne NJ welcomes you. Plus it's A Lot safer.
Happy Wednesday! I sure would like to see the stock value grow a little faster.
Hey there SLJ! Patience my friend. 😉

Do the 34,400 truck fumes equal a small, medium or large cruise ship? How does someone come up with these ststa?
they pull those number out of they a** like most thing those people spill it all about feeling
Simple! They lie to make their position look good! They know most people are too stupid to know any better!
Typical Politician Think: Requiring you to use something, that does not yet exist.
Read my mind
The people have spoken! We like good food that's included! Guys Burgers 🏆!
Thank you Doug
Who would pay that ridiculous price for a cabana?!!!
An impressive win by Guy's!

Duh 😒 on the open space AC. I am in agreement with reducing pollution from the cruise ships.
Thank you
You're welcome! Thanks for watching.

Thank you! Appreciate you being a loyal viewer.
@@CruiseRadio aww thanks of course 😀
I don’t understand how Guys burgers is even listed un the top three. It’s over cooked. The taste is coming from the sauce, etc not the burger which is not very good.
That is ridiculous way to expensive and keep the AC it gets way to hot and fans only can do so much ❤
The tender boat is terrifying
Little PRICIE for an open end '''PORCH''' don't You think ??!!
Good am Doug.
Wow!!!!! $$$$$$$$ Doesn't affect me. I am happy to just sit in the shade under some trees (after the pirate ship) on a lounge chair. I am not Boujee lol. Wondering if Grand Turk is next? Safe travels!

Morning!

Good morning ☕️
Morning! Thanks for tuning in.
I'll bet they will go back to AC quietly after people stop using them
I love Royal Caribbean but shouldn't they be embarrassed they didn't get a restaurant in the top 5 at all? NCL has two but Royal had none. They need to step it up food wise.
I'm surprised Chops wasn't on there.
@@kennywalker4091 Number one was Guys Burgers! They were not going for fine dining!
@@jjl2290 I love Guy's Burgers but almost spit out my coffee when I heard that! 😅
Oh NY 🤦♀
Today is my birthday! Doug! 🎉🎉
Hey! Happy Birthday to you! 🎂🥳
@@CruiseRadio Aww thanks 😊 your so sweet
Wait, a burger joint beat all the fancier places? Lol 🤔
But those open-air, air conditioners were slowing down Global Warming ! Now we will all fry 😂
WHO, WHO rents those cabanas? It blows my mind how people do things like this are the same ones who are always broke. If you can afford that much money for a one day cabana, why are you cruising Carnival?
We do. Only rented cabanas on Holland America Line and haven’t been broke since college. Haha
