Creator's Key Takeaways

the security workers there at the Heathrow International Airport in London have just announced that from June 24th through August 27th of this year they are going to choose 31 days in that basically two-month window there to go on strike

the royal princess is limping back to Port after having generator problems they it impacted the crews enough that they missed an hour and a half of their time in ketchup can and they are going to completely miss their call in British Columbia

princess gave everyone 50 for their hassle

disembarkation there in Seattle went really really smoothly when we were disembarking last Saturday

Creator's Tips & Advice

✓Allow a lot of extra time to check in at security if flying through Heathrow between June 24th and August 27th.

✓Use cruise line transfers to get luggage from the airport to the ship; it's the easiest way.

✓Keep a small carry-on with essentials in case luggage delivery is delayed.

✓When disembarking, have your passport and original certified birth certificate ready for US Customs.

✓Consider using a porter at the cruise terminal for smoother luggage handling.
