Enchanted Princess, Disembarking


The day that comes that no one wants to come. That is Disembarking day. The day you get kicked off the ship.

Morning time

I was supposed to wake up my in-laws when I got up. We needed to meet at Gigi’s pizza place at 8:35 AM. I mean we were going to cut it close. I moved our car service from 10 AM to 9 AM. We had a lot to do.

I forgot that my alarm doesn’t go off on Saturday morning. But Luckily I woke up at 6 AM. We finished packing and said our goodbyes to the room and the steward.

We headed to breakfast in the main dining room. They told us we could keep putting our luggage by the door. I took my backpack with me. It has got a lot of technology in it.

Ate breakfast, then headed to Gigi’s pizza. We were there in plenty of time. We got looking at the time and they are only on Orange 2 and that was at 8:30 AM. We were orange 6. So we got up and just walked off the ship. Didn’t know how long it would take us to go thru customs.

We found our luggage and headed to the customs line. It didn’t take us that long. They did facial recognition. That was a quick process. But, it is a scary thought, but that is the way it is going.

Outside the terminal, since we had a car service we went to the left-hand side. The right was for buses.

The driver called us just as I was walking out of the terminal, just a little before 9 AM. Told him we were at one and he was at three. He said he would be there in a few seconds. He pulled up and we put all of our stuff in the SUV and away we went.  That was smooth.

Thoughts

The process could be a little bit better, but we could have been sitting there until 9:30 AM   or later. But since he just got up and walked off, it was a smooth process. Finding the luggage was easy. I did have the air tags but they were just right there at orange 6 all by each other.

Now I know why they took a long time to come at your scheduled time to embark. Due to it being a mad house getting off the ship. In the past, I have been early to different ports like at 11 AM. I guess all the disembarking people have gone. They kept on yelling to move down to a number, but we couldn’t move down due to others wouldn’t move. They all wanted to be number 1 so they could be the first out. But, they just needed to have a great driver who comes to you.
