Creator's Key Takeaways

We have some people on the Norwegian Escape getting back from their cruise a lot later than they planned.

He was on vacation with his pregnant wife and seven uh eight children.

They will assist you. They will even try and carry the scooter on for you and off for you when you get to your destination sometimes.

I can't believe we have to say this, but we're not going to get nine crew members to carry passengers up and down stairs sitting on a scooter.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Book flights after 7:30 p.m. or the next morning if your cruise disembarkation is delayed.
βœ“Contact the cruise line for automatic rebooking if you booked through them.
βœ“Be aware that crew will not carry passengers on scooters; they will assist but not lift.
