The ship has a busy schedule to stick to, and the passengers are well aware of the departure time - those are the rules! Con Patikas

Damn, I thought my day was rough, but now I see it wasn't so bad after all!

The big ships rely on time and tide, and passengers are warned to return on time or take responsibility for being late.

Always make sure to book all shore trips through the ship, mate. Janice Allen

Daily warnings on the cruise emphasize that if you're late, you're left behind.

That's why you shell out for the balcony room - to say peace out with a cold drink in your hand. Aaron Hoskin

That's why I'd never hop on a cruise or guided tour again, nope, nope, nope! Can't handle all those rules and restrictions, feels like we're back in school, ugh!

Let's ball out and fly them to the cruise on a chopper, that place is so fancy I bet it's got a helipad. Jordan Smith

Better watch the clock, because if you’re not back in time to board the cruise ship, you’re outta luck! No special treatment, no excuses!

They are aware of the rules and the consequences, so don't pity them. Delays are costly for the ships and we've seen people left behind in Asia and almost missed the boat in New Zealand on our last trip. Mick Kelly

It goes down on every cruise. They already know the deal.

Just so you know, there's a specific time you need to be back before we leave. The tide schedule and costs are set in stone, so stop trying to change them. Deal with it.

I have no sympathy for latecomers with medical conditions who inconvenience 3000 other passengers.

Jack Muirhead
I have zero pity for rule breakers! Those ports have schedules to keep and tides to obey. So follow the rules, or risk missing the boat!

Why do they gotta wait? I'm so over people always pointing fingers instead of taking responsibility.

Warren Hart
It's on them.

If you're on a cruise, you gotta be back on the damn ship when they say or else you might get left behind. They ain't waiting around for nobody. So, if you skip out on an excursion, you better hustle back to the ship on time. Those rules ain't no joke.
Yep
Joel Duggan
Rules are rules mate, the passengers know when the bloody ship leaves, it's on you.
