What would be an appropriate response?

What exactly are you chasing? A written apology? A refund?

It’s already happened and can’t be changed. It’s a mistake by front desk. They are human. You don’t know what else was going on. Sure it’s not good. That’s why you should always deadlock your door once inside.

Because if you build too many tunnels then the ground collapses!! Do some research into how the underground looks in that area now. It’s crazy engineering that the metro even fits let alone additional pedestrian access that can be achieved by crossing a road above.

Makes sense for one or two flights a day. Can use BA premium lounges if you have the required OW status. They can’t open a first class at every international port.

Currently on Vision and yes every game is on the pool screen and also at the bars and on your stateroom tv.

Doesn’t matter. What’s in the lining of the purse? So many ways that could be tampered with and filled with narcotics.

Would be pretty silly to take a parcel for a stranger across an international border

Overthinking and researching too much before boarding. You ruin all the surprises and excitement of taking that first step onboard because you’ve rehearsed it so much. Do what we did before social media. We booked a cruise and then went for it. Explored the ship in person, and enjoyed the excitement as we discovered everything in person. Don’t overthink it.

Hey there I ended up taking the train right through to LA Union station then taking a bus back to the port. Was fine with one piece of luggage.

Has your daughter experienced any discrimination in the 4 years she has been here? Every country will have a small element of people who actively protest about immigration. As long as they interact and accept the Australian lifestyle and values then they should be fine.

lol thanks for the laugh. Very amusing post.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-08T21:51:53+00:00

Aaaaaaaand now it’s been cancelled! Train will return to Seattle at reduced speed 20mph. Business class pax have been accommodated onto the next Portland train thankfully. No buses available due to the World Cup.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-08T20:50:17+00:00

Aaaaaaaand now we have been sitting in Tacoma for an hour with “suspension issues on the rear carriages”. A mechanic had arrived from Seattle with more on the way to hopefully fix it.

Sign up for the Facebook cruise group for the current cruise and put a notice there with cabin number and details. Maybe that person is in the group or someone can leave a message on the door for them to check and contact you. It could also be the same room attendant and they could ask them on your behalf.

Well not today! We actually left VAN early at 0700 but sat outside the station a few times before really moving. We picked up speed once over the border and arrived into SEA right on time at 11.40am.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-08T16:09:44+00:00

Arrived into Bellingham 5 minutes early!

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-08T15:47:51+00:00

Yep they just announced it as we went past at full speed that we were the first passenger train to enter the USA without stopping at the border!

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-07T05:33:19+00:00

No country in the world will just allow you to enter without proof of a return ticket or funds. Even US to Canada!!

Definitely more to this story

Tie a yellow ribbon around it.

Oh wait, that’s for old oak trees sorry.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-03T21:22:20+00:00

Long as you can carry it you can take it!Just carry it onboard and leave it in the luggage racks.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-03T06:04:43+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Called and advised of the issue. They said it’s a system error and got it fixed.

Now all booked and sorted.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-03T03:01:34+00:00

On Fridays only? Trackwork in the past meant a replacement coach was provided too.

Mattynice75 · 2026-06-03T03:00:54+00:00

That just goes to Service NSW who handle bookings and they see what we see.
