They missed the boat — literally.
A couple who had more than 30 cruises under their belt say they were left abandoned by a cruise ship while on holiday in Spain .
“Never before have we ever missed catching a ship on time at a port. So we are not someone who abuses the system.” “Our cruise began in Lisbon and we departed from Lisbon about one and a half hours after the scheduled departure at 4pm,” he claimed. Back in Salt Lake City, their daughter Marilee Baker, stayed up into the wee hours of the morning trying to book her parents a flight to Palma de Mallorca, where the boat was making its next call Wednesday morning, according to CNN.
“The ship had not contacted us directly for two days so that doesn’t speak so well for them,” he said. The couple reportedly left their medication, eyeglasses and spare hearing aid batteries in their stateroom on board the Norwegian Viva.
