That's why I always only participate on on excursions organised by the 'ship'... they will wait for you or make other suitable arrangements at their cost. OK they cost more but its peace of mind...

I think it’s beyond rude when you’re late to stroll to the ship. Run or expect to be jeered.

What's heart breaking is the absolute audacity of these two women to think an entire ship should wait patiently for their late arrival. They will hopefully learn a value lesson and make sure to keep better tabs on their time management.

We have done 4 cruises so far and we have one planned for next year and the year after. Carnival makes it very clear about being on time back to the ship at ports. If you are shallow enough to make a whole ship wait for you because you can't follow rules then you deserve to be left behind.

The band, the music and the dancers are wonderful. What an experience!

LOL watching for pier runners gonna be my motivation to get back to the ship before all aboard time!

I do tours. Depending on where I am at, I have to tell guests at least three times the times to be back. (and if there are special circumstances, maybe show up 5 or ten minutes early) People never learn. But i will tell you that 99.9 percent of guests really are amazing.

13 cruises and never witnessed pier runners. I miss all the good stuff!!

the ship will never leave early, but they will also never leave late. if you can't make it back in time, don't leave the ship in the first place. Or, make sure you have you passport and other essentials cause you are flying to the next port.

5,000 people can get back in time......but not the Karens of the world

Better be glad I’m not the captain I would leave you in a heartbeat. And laugh while I’m doing it.

We cut out day a little short (did not snorkel the shipwreck) because we felt we were cutting it too close. Our ship DID leave people behind that day as well. Can't wait to go back to Roatan!!

If every official excursion has come back on time, then the ship should have left at 3:30 sharp. No more waiting for these people. This is how you teach them a lesson about punctuality. Do you think your flight will wait for you if you are late getting to the airport or gate? Nope. If the flight is schedule to leave at 4pm and the doors are supposed to close at 3:50pm, they will close at 3:50pm whether you are there or not. Cruise lines should adopt this. Though it would put an end to these wonderful videos 🙂

Our cruise used Roatan, one of first to do so, after hurricane hit normal port. None of buildings in video were there then.

Let's say you were left behind on the last cruise pre-COVID, then the borders closed... Yeah, don't miss the ship!

one of the few exceptions to the rule is if someone fell ill or were hurt. But the local authorities always know when the cruise ships are in town and can actually CALL the ship and let them know, and depending on the severity, the captain MAY wait for a little while, medivac them if theyre not too far out or meet them in the next port

I have and there should be no sympathy for anyone who, due to their own negligence, are late to board a ship. Barring extenuating circumstances, be responsible and get back on time or pay the price.

We had that on our trip to Italy. I was so aggravated. How dare you!!!!!

I was taught to be 10 minutes early than ever be 1 second late.

I’ve never understood these people, what are you doing that’s so much fun that you take the risk of being left behind? I’m always back on board well before departure time.

Never forget to take Your passport, Your mobile, Your credit card and Your money with You when you leave the ship!

On my cruise last December, we were supposed to be back on ship by 4:15 to leave at 5. We were still able to leave about 5, but there were people walking on as late as 4:45. The rear gangway was taken off before the last of the yahoos could be bothered to shift their butts down to the docks. Some fucking arrogance, I tell ya

Some ships routinely wait 30 beyond departure time. On Princess, we left on time, without any grace period. These two women were 35 minutes LATE. Did they really expect the ship to wait on them? You can choose to be a responsible, respectful passenger, or you can choose to make your own way to the next port.

It's going to cost you more than $36 to get to the next port of call. Toss the sandwich.

pier pressure is real

If you're late, you get no music. We're on break 🤣

We have been on 30+ cruises and seen very few pier runners. We have always been back to the ship in good time and we mostly do our own thing ratther than ship excursions. The only time weve been late was on a ships excutsion when we got held up in traffic. Of course the shipmwaited for the 40 or so who were late! Incidently, if the ship cecides to go and leave anyone the crew will gominto their cabin and getntheir passports, which thry give to the agent on shore to give to the guests, so they can then travel to the ship. The agent will also assist in arranging transport, at the gursts expense, for them.

Wow! I’ve never seen THAT many people late on one ship! Maybe it was a late tour group.

We did many cruises, the only time we were late was on a ship organised tour!

Years ago, a ship a called the Arc left its port in a rainstorm. I can't imagine how the people that got left behind felt.

And to this day, they are still arguing with the crew member.

I prefer to just set sail and leave those people behind.

Pretty island.

Does not make any sense being late unless the excursion booked with ship is late

Lol they were 30 mins late. I don’t cruise, and even I know the cruise won’t wait for anyone.

Maybe they were waiting in line for the other cruise ship, but didn't realize they were all waiting in the wrong line. That's possible, the line looked really long

just curious, i see another long line of ppl to the "left" of your video. What are they waiting for?

This happened one pay before Covid took off in my area. March 5, 2020.

some time they need to left someone behind . for every 30 min late for big cruise ship cost them $10 k to make up the timing for the next port.

Imagine having to get a rental car and drive all the way back to the US from Honduras because you missed the cruise ship.

Don't hurry themselves do they? I'm here, we can go now.

35 mins late is ridiculous.

No excuse. Set your phones TIMER and not the alarm to alert you to the time you need to return to the ship

I'd be afraid to leave the ship cuz knowing me...I'll get lost on the way back to it 🤦‍♀️

HOW PEOPLE REALLY BE ANGRY WITH PEOPLE NOT KNOWING THE CIRCUMSTANCES. SMH!!!!

Do some of you people not realize that the ship excursion maybe making them late in the ship has to wait for them, stop being so damn judgmental because you don’t know the situation you’re not down there

what, you're not allowed to bring anything to eat to the ship? not even when it's wrapped / packaged? I see the hygienic reasons, but... still consider it an overkill. here in Scandinavia, no one will stop you if you bring your own food to the ferry

Tides dont wait for anyone.

Cruiselines could make a fortune selling water balloons after the horn blows.

I admit to getting a sick little thrill watching these just like everyone else, but you can't assume people are just brainless or inconsiderate. Things happen sometimes. And don't you think they suffered enough? The only people they're hurting are themselves.

35 minutes late. Come on.

they are with the other ship

These people will be repeat offenders because they got away with it.

Peir running could be in the Olympic games.

Rude, ignorant and entitled is a good description for all of them 🤨

I want my 8 minutes back

Why are people sorry for stupid people?

No tenders to catch

Cruise liner sets bad example. The time should be the time & this wouldn't happen.

😂 leave em

who would ever waste there time and effort on the hand sanitizer never ever used it never would

So this is what you do on a cruise ? What do you do the rest of the time? Hang out in the mens room seeing who doesnt wash their hands?
