Let’s begin by clarifying the Part II in my title:
This was a 4 Day West Coast Getaway and the second in a series of 3 back to back to back cruises, which my friend and I took. The price was outstanding, practically free and impossible to pass up.
Disembarkation/Embarkation: My friend and I were “In Transit” Passengers for the second leg of our three back to back cruises. Although it was clear to us that we were In Transit Passengers, it was not so clear to the crew and staff. On the final day of our first back to back cruise the room steward set out the suitcase mat for packing on the bed, suggesting that he thought we were going home. Moreover, with just hours to go on our final day we had not received our In Transit Documents. Thus, we placed a call to the Passenger Services Desk and asked where our documents were? Within the hour these documents were delivered to the stateroom. After thoroughly reading the documentation the following was to occur: We were to meet other In Transit Passengers at the Crown Grill at 11:00 AM. We then would be escorted off the ship with the group and that is exactly what occurred. We went with our guide and group, passed through customs, walked out of the building along the front and back in through the main entrance within 15 minutes. It was a breeze.
