Bad Experience?

Cruising is great fun. Has any one ever had a bad experience? ie: bad weather, ship problems, boarding, missing the boat, coniscated items, poor service,etc.

You need to read the Cruise Gripes board. You'll find plenty over there.

Of course everyone can think of something that was bad but heck, something bad happens everyday! I much prefer to think of the good things and know that they far outweigh the things that don't go just right.

I've never had a bad experience which went uncorrected. To me, that's the measure of the successful cruiseline.

Bad? Cruise? Not even in the same vocabulary!

Yes, all of the above. As they say "s.... happens". It's life. But I love the experience nevertheless and you'd have to put shackles on me to keep me off my next cruise.

Every cruise I've taken has been defective--they have all been too short! <G>

I may dwell on the land, but I live at sea!

Sensation 2/03 I disembarked, but never really left the ship.
Enchantment 9/03 Just had to go back.
Inspiration 3/04 Just have to go back again, and again, and again...
Sensation 04/05 The vessel made me do it!

I agree! We were socked in with cloud cover every day but one and had plenty of rain on our New England cruise but it was AWESOME!!!
