  • 11 people who also missed their cruise saw this video...

  • lol

  • Thats why they tell you when the boat leaves so u dont miss it

  • @cuisekidbrandon Carnival Glory, which is said during the first 3 seconds :-)

  • Hope they had good travel insurance. Guess that's what happens when you fall asleep on the beach.

  • I was on a cruise in Oct. and was called out of my stateroom by Security from the ship. Had an issue with a retailer in port not charging me in the correct currency. Was told it was ok to go fix it and they had the doors closed and were going to leave us but at the last minute opened the doors and let us on we weren't happy about the sitiuation and actually had a meeting with the upper staff members later that evening. Let's just say they took care of us because their security screwded up!!!

  • Too bad. I would have made it back early. I wonder who was the cause of this? Guys are not normally into shopping.

  • An expensive and unforgettable lesson learned about being on time...they just had to have that last drink from Senor Frogs,didn't they?

  • What probably happened is that a pilot boat went out to drop them off and pick up the port pilot, however I have a video which I should upload of a family being left in Mexico.

  • Early is on-time; on-time is late; late is a dice roll--it's as simple as that. The ship's company has no ill feeling for you when you are late, and you have no reason for ill feeling for their leaving without you.

  • if you miss the ship, they have a normal boat pick you up a littlebit later. and drops you off on the ship

  • Fuuuuuuck that really sucks

  • thats crazzy lol If they left without me I'd be crazy

  • Now When you Book a crusie for the first time. Here is a helpful tip Make Sure you book your airline, hotel and cruise together. Arrive the day before your cruise and stay in a hotel. When you go to different Ports make sure you book your activitys through the cruise line. Because if you miss the cruise they will fly you to your next destination. Now if its not with the cruise line "I'm sorry your on your own as far as getting their."

  • The times I've been on a bus and its been held up waiting for these types.

  • I would like literally throw up...LMFAO !!! its the bahamas !!! 

  • Im originally from the Bahamas, living in the States. Don't need a passport to enter the US. Im a resident so I just show my green card.

  • That's terrible. I wouldn't know what to do if I'd gotten stuck in a strange country. Luckily my hometown is an hour away by ferry from Nassau so I'd gotten one the next ferry available.

  • @marshdell But you'd be hit with a fine for disembarking the ship early and what if you didn't have your passport?

  • ''Will they pull over?''

    Love, it would cost thousands... :/

    They most probably got the pilot boat back to the ship...

  • @WelshTurnip94 I do not believe so, as I'm pretty sure we never slowed down for any one or any reason after leaving.

  • Also, although this poor duo should have been back in time, I appreciate your sympathetic remarks instead of making crude jokes.

  • Just wondering. What was the actual stated time that the ship was supposed to depart at?

  • @judy785 If memory serves, all-aboard was 30 minutes prior to the departure time.  Can't remember the exact times.

  • I was on the Norwegian Jewel in Dover, England where we were embarking on the cruise ship, I was sitting on the balcony and saw a woman screaming, jumping, having arrived at the terminal something like 2 minutes after the cruise started.

    You feel really sorry for these people, but the cruise line does give you a time to be at the dock.

    If 3,000 people can do it, everyone can, so there is no excuse.

    I usually arrive at the port of embarkation a day prior, just in case.

  • Glad to see the boat didn't wait on them. They knew when to be back on the boat, why didn't they get back to the ship? The other cruise passengers need to be able to get on with their cruise instead of waiting on two assholes.

  • if you are on an excursion booked on the cruise, they will. a friend did a canopy tour (last one on trip) in Belize and the cruise sent an employee with the tour. employee had a walkie talkie in case the excursion was running late

  • Question asked, question answered.

  • thats why we always get to the ship 2-3 hours early

  • I was on the Mariner of The Seas, going to Mexico, in 2010. My family and I had always eaten in the main dinning room. For the first three night's, we where the only family at our assigned table. Our fourth day though, are table mates finally show up, and they tell us that for the past 73 hours, have ridden a Grayhound from Los Angeles to Cabo San Lucas, because they where from Arizona, and wanted to meet with some family members in California before the cruise, but arrived in to port too late.

  • If everybody else can manage to be on at the specified time, and they have plenty of things clearly stating when they leave, then that's too bad for those two. Why would the cruise ship change its schedule to fit two people's needs.

    Let them back on? What, are they just going to abruptly stop it and throw a rope out the door and hope they swing on without getting injured in which case they could sue?

  • These are the type of morons who think the world revolves around them and no one else. You'll find at least one dickhead like that in every port.

  • Will they pull over? 

  • I took my mum on a cruise and in Barbados she was not allowed to take her wheelchair on coach, when we returned some tosser had stolen her chair and cruise liner had to track her a new one down which made us late by 2 hours captain would not leave and held up 4 other cruise liners till we were safely on board....either we had an excellent captain or certain circumstances they will wait

  • As someone who has been delayed getting OFF the ship because people don't follow the simple instructions, I say ... leave em there. We waited for over a 2 hours while the ship had to locate 4 foreigners after landing in Florida. No one could get off until they had cleared customs. I was almost late for my flight home because of those 4 boneheads.

  • They've should've sent a life boat out for them, therefore the cruise ship doesn't have to be late for them.

  • @Kalphiter45 Maybe a tug boat, I'm sure the ships life boats are certified for use, and if used, prolly have to go through a whole new re-certification or even get a new life boat.

  • Ha! I've been on 14 cruises and they tell you a dozen different ways #1 - The exact time the boat sails #2 - You WILL get left behind

  • These are the same a-holes who make a plane sit at a gate for 15 minutes past departure time waiting for them.

  • I hate when people like this make me late for things having to wait on them because they can't get it together. I'm glad they got left I hope it cost them thousands

  • this cruise should let them in cause did u see how the man acted at the end! wow i would sew the crew if i was him!

  • @arthurchen0114 What are you going to "sew"? Sailor hats for the crew....lol If you meant "sue" that is the problem with some people these days. How do you think these people are justified in bringing a lawsuit for their own bad judgement or misunderstanding? They screwed up and got left behind.

  • Was this the carnival fascination?

    I went to Nassau and and Half Moon Cay on the fascination

    :)

    But thats bad that he got left behind!!!

  • @jnannie1 Carnival Glory

  • Damn that's crazy lol that sucks!! Don't ever be late to get back on that ship

  • Vacation is supposed to relaxing--RIGHT? Why would you get on a cruise to have every single little thing mapped out for you... " be here by exactly ... or you will be left behind". "your having dinner at 7:00pm" They have computers that tell them every single passenger that de-boards and again at re-boarding. Why not do the math and find out you have 2 persons out----- "oh look, there they are 100 yards away... screw 'em lets go."

  • @uhhhbr549 id bet he wasn't 100yds away when they made the call to leave.

  • Run for the ship! Keep running don't give up! Swim for the ship! Save yourself from drowning!

  • I think that bus is going to help her! Yes, the boat that works on water.

  • What port was this?

  • @E1amanda Nassau, Bahamas (last port of the cruise)

  • IF you were late due to having joined an onshore excursion / tour organized by the cruise line itself, then the ship would wait for you. We had had this experience once with Royal Caribbean and this is one reason why you may wish to consider joining tours organized by the cruise company = yes, they are generally more expensive but treat the premium as buying a late penalty insurance.

  • That was a dumb move on their part. Always stay on that boat, no matter what. I went on my 1st cruise in 07 on th Carnival Valor and we had people run up to the deck but they made it just in time.

  • omg im going on the carnival glory on june 13 2011 and my family tends to get stuck in traffic :(

  • how much did this cruise cost? any meals included? thanks

  • @revilor234 All meals are included, unless you want to have dinner in a specialty restaurant. Price varies, but you can find a Caribbean cruise on Carnival starting at $399-$499 person depending on the time of year.

  • I would have the urge to yell "Run, Forrest, Run"!!

  • hubby and I went on a cruise ship not long ago (xmas 2010).... if you book a tour through the boat they CANNOT leave without you...... if you go it alone then make sure you are well and truly back before departure time or you WILL be left behind.....

  • GOD!!!

    why the heel would you even tryto be late when your traveling on a cruise ship like that. i mean helllooo!!?!?!!

    you have already payed a hell of a lot of money for the cabins i think it would be rather stupid to go "shopping for suvenirs" and then end up beeing late for our ship.

    Lets all hope that they learnt their leasson

  • What a dick move. If that was me that got left behind the cruise line would have to rename that ship the lancers7x of the seas by the time my lawyers got done with them.

  • @lancers7x You would lose the lawsuit very badly.

  • @lancers7x Why should a whole ship load of people wait on you if your too dumb to get back to the ship in time?

    Good luck with you lawsuit !

  • @lancers7x It clearly says in the cruise rules/guidelines that you HAVE to be back to the ship on time, or else they WILL leave you. It was their own fault for being late. Too bad, so sad. Follow the rules next time.

  • @lancers7x Cruises are no different than airplanes, buses, trains, etc. If you're late, YOU. ARE. LATE. You're going to get left behind! It's not one's fault but your own!

  • @lancers7x You wish, troll. It's in the rules. You're late, they leave you.

    Whatever you need to get done, DO IT BEFORE THE SHIP DEPARTS. :P They totally had it coming.

  • once navigator of the seas waited 5 hours for ONE passenger

  • Anyone that cruises knows that you have to be back on time....they leave without you.

  • is royal caribbean the only cruise line that doesnt leave people behind

  • @pocketcube Royal leaves people behind too. We were on a Mexican Riviera cruise and someone we knew (not friends) had intentionally stayed off the ship in one of the ports and took a bus to the next one. The ships can't stay forever.

  • ha i was in the same spot as you in 2011 on the norwigian jewel. and yes we left a family of 6

  • I'm getting on this ship next week.

  • See you next port !! LOL LOL LOL !!

    Just a Quick advise. READ THE FUCKING INFORMATION ON BOARD.

    All the cruise lines have a journal on board with all the Info you need.

    THE SHIP WON'T WAIT FOR YOU. Unless you are part of any shore excursion arranged by the ship.

  • Good , those two are idiots.

    

  • lol in the navy if you miss ships movement your in deep shit

  • One of the cruises we were on there was a group of three women and they were horribly rude to the staff and passengers. At the second port they were running to try and catch the ship but it did not stop. We as well as many other passengers were watching them trying to run and catch the ship. When people realized it was them and they missed the "boat" everyone started to clap and cheer! Honestly. They were that rude to EVERYONE! Some joked the Captain deliberately wouldnt stop.  LOL

  • Ohhhh Myy Goshh lol

  • Of course it's their fault. There's always people that no matter how many times you tell them, give them the instructions, remind them and call them, they just don't seem to get it... and it happens what we just saw. The bad thing about it is that afterward they want to blame and sue everybody but themselves.

  • @REALmenRIDeDVX400 Yup. It's the Carnival Glory.

  • @TravelGuyTravel omg im going on the glory june 13th and my family tends to get stuck in traffic all the time :(

  • lol, this is great. They only have themselves to blame

  • that sucks ass all these people watching you

  • Lesson Learned.

    I just took a cruise recently and they re-iterated over and over how incredibly important it was to be back on the ship at least 30 minutes before the departure time. If everyone is on the boat early the ship will leave earlier too, which is a plus because sometimes that means getting to the next port sooner or atleast a slow, less bumpy ride to the next port.

  • @LooieENG2 Only took 239 comments to get the answer! :-)

  • when the ship is scheduled to SAIL at 4:00 it means 4:00. Not 4:02......not 4:05.

    F-O-U-R O'C-L-O-C-K!!!!!! More than likely they are the type of people who are ALWAYS late for EVERYTHING!!!! They'll probably be late for their own funeral! I know I'd be pissed if we were sitting at a port after 4:00 waiting for some schmo's.

  • oh Carnival Glory

    i miss you so

  • As you can hear the women's comment ''They were yelling for him on the inter com'' which obviously means the ship DID wait, and obviously they were VERY late, so their problem

  • Morons. They could afford to pay for a cruise but could not afford a watch. Where has the age of accepting responsibility gone.

  • WHy hold up a thousand people for two people who know the rules. I feel for them but we all know the rules when we cruise............or fly.........or take a train......or a bus.........

  • Captains log - 2 down, 3568 to go, also great dumpster at port, very handy

  • get to the air port! nice cruise.

  • In Soviet Russia the ship waits for you

  • HAHA!....

    "Are you zooming in...? What are they talking about?"

    Like zooming in is gunna hear her LMAO =P

  • That's why I'm always 20 or at least 10 minutes earlier than I should be on a ship =] Just in case, and to get best places on the top deck ehhehehe

  • I know if you are with an excursion with the cruise it is policy not to leave you. but if you are not with an excursion your screwed.

  • I love how these people film their misery. LOL

  • im the 100st liker

  • well tuff shit buddy

  • Perhaps they don't forget to pack things earlier next time ehheehehe

  • "Will they pull over?"... hahahaha... Yeah... and they have spare tires and such as well hahaha

  • The ship was running from her floral dress!

  • @MrFukinfantastic I laughed hard about this comment :D lol

  • this is exactly why i start heading back to the ship 45 mins before departure time, lol. i've never even come close to missing my ships in past cruises and never intend to miss any.

  • ... I love how the guy says. "and that's the dumpster where I put my garbage"... lol

  • In July '09 I was on a Carnival cruise where 2 men were left behind. They called their names for 15 minutes than the ship left. I have no clue how they got back home. You have to be back in time no matter what.

  • There are two kinds of people, those that wave "From" the ship and those that wave "AT" the ship. Those two are "At" people. I don't think they will ever make that mistake again. But then again...

  • they are STOOOOPID

  • No sympathy really from me, they are told the time to be back on board, they missed it. As to all the people say "why can't they wait for all passengers to get on", a very simple answer, the ship would never get away on time as people would take advantage. Trains, planes don't wait, they go. Cruise ships DO try to help out and do check if people are nearby before they leave. They are on schedule.

  • thats why i stay on cruise ships.

  • LOL...That's some funny shit right there...TOOLS !

  • I forgot my ID when I left a cruise ship in a port and when I got back they were not going to let me back on. Luckly I got my wife to go back to our room to get it. The boat would have definatly left with out me.

  • @Heinzeag How did you forget your ID? You need your Cruise Card to exit the ship?

  • That blows

  • I wonder how much time you get to leave the ship.

    I've not done a cruise yet. But I remember a city bus tour I took this summer. The guide said we had 30 minutes to stretch our legs. I turned to the girlfriend and said "I'm not going anywhere". A family were were talking to before the tour started decided to step off to get some water. 15 minutes later the bus was pulling off and the family missed the bus.

  • i used to work on the CARNIVAL TRIUMPH and this happened a lot......duh!!!!!those stupid people know what time the ship goes............their own fault...lol...

  • Another awesome video to add to the cruise video portfolio

  • my dad did this but they stoped and got a speed boat to go out and put a rope ladder to climb up

  • I had to laugh at 1:55 “… are we stopping?” Can you imagine how much fuel it would take to stop and restart a large ship? And how much more fuel it would take once underway to get back on schedule? But then again, if it was the man (or woman) who owned the ship, they wouldn’t have taken off in the first place.

  • Will they pull over?

  • This is why the cruiselines give you a certain time to be back onboard.....if u not there....too bad, so sad.

  • BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH suck.... damn im such an asshole

  • Remember how much of a nightmare it was when you arrive late for your airplane and it has gone. The same thing goes for the cruise ship.

  • did they got their money back atleast

  • @EDGAR15ish Why would they get their money back?

  • @TravelGuyTravel cause they paid for something they didnt even get to enjoy and didnt even got on the ship so yeah it was just a question though

  • @EDGAR15ish This was the last port of call on this cruise. So they only missed one night.

  • @TravelGuyTravel haha so lets just say they left them on the island while yall were going home already. =))

  • @TravelGuyTravel and it's just right that the ship don't wait for passengers.. they could never leave.. if they would wait one time for somebody.. soon everybody would be lait..

  • @EDGAR15ish What planet are you on EDGAR15ish??????

  • @TravelGuyTravel and it doesnt matters if they leave without you on the first day, you still got to pay

  • @EDGAR15ish Oh heck no.....it wasnt' the cruise ships fault they missed. The cruise ship lets you know when they are going to leave....it's your responsibility to make sure you get onboard.

  • @EDGAR15ish it's their own fault you are told to be back at a certain time

  • You snooze you loose!

  • Epic fail :L

  • Don't feel sorry for her at all. It was more important for her to 'go shopping' than it was to board her ship. HER FAULT!

  • @RBNightlinger Agreed. Departure time is what time they depart. If they're too stupid to read, REGARDLESS OF THEIR COUNTRY OF ORIGIN, then too bad.

  • OMG I HAVE BEEN ON THAT SHIP!!!!

  • "and she's got a shopping bag"....lol....I feel so bad for them

  • So what happened to them??? Did they have to fly back or was a boat able to come get them??? My family are planning to go on go on our first cruise soon, on the Carnival Glory and I will definitly make sure everyone is there on time...

  • that is in the Bahamas

  • that is in the bahamas i think

  • what a dumbass. That's fucking hilarious. Can we say owned?

  • Lol this happend to me and my missus first time in Egypt. We found the Viking 3 Cruiser 2 mile down the Nile, from where we had got off. Luckily Enough they sort of pulled over for us, the guide was with us also. Thank god!

  • the answer would be no.

  • I would be crussin' like crazy. No joke.

  • Glad I ran across this video. Im going on a cruise in the future and i will definitely make sure I be back 2 hours before the ship leaves. That will be a messed up situation to be in.

  • Gutted.... I hope you guys didn't wave goodbye to them... salt in the wound ha..

  • Ohhhh Maa Goodd

  • Thanks god my great-grandfather make the same thing with Titanic :)

  • fuck them.....they should have bought a watch.

  • they will not stop. but what they would do is put you on a little boat, like one of those rescue boats, & drive the boat to the door, &get you back on the ship.

  • i can just imagine the chick kickin off her shoes and swimmin for it with her shopping bag in her teeth.... did that happen? no? ok....

  • they actually should take a tug boat and tender with the ship.

  • does the boat pull over ahahah .so funny its not a car ;)

  • Isn't that so sad? Get over it. Click here for the 3 minute cheerer upper.

  • LOL. hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

  • i would cry!!!!!!! but it serves em right why should they get to hold everyone else up cos they aint got a decent watch

  • oooh my gooosh!! Terrible,i was like sad watching them, finnaly getting on that cruise they always dreamt of then miss the ship! I seriously would have jumped into the water have them pick me uP!

  • I feel so bad for them

  • Get there earlier maybe?

  • So did they get back on at some point?! Do you know?! How sad!

  • they shoudve been on time

  • oh this is awful....im going on my first cruise next month to alaska...thanks for this i thought they waited lol obviously not

  • If you are not on a ship excursion the cruise will not wait for you. SOL

  • The agent would have been given there passports and thats it unlucky the ship would let everyone know what time they sail.They are grown ups !!!!

  • the video actually looks pretty good though, lol. that's why I was asking =P

  • This would have been awful to watch, can you imagine being them???

    And not to be an ass, but what kind of camera do you have??

  • @goingtoseetheworld It's a little Sony Handycam. It was really hard to see anything through the viewfinder with the sun out, and being on a moving ship didn't help either.

  • wow that would suck but u guys comentar funny stuff

  • Arent they supposed to check if every passenger is on board? Cuz there are ids and you have to check in right?

  • @ericlei12 Yes, but they announced their names many times before leaving port. This ship is not going to wait forever for people who are late.

  • @TravelGuyTravel im goin on a cruise ship soon, and im goin to make sure my peers are on time. lol. that is just horrible, i feel for these people. anyways i think im boardin the freedom of the seas, how was your cruise.

  • @ehbabbeh which cruise line are you going on and what is your itinerary?
