Heald recently shared a message that he received from a cruiser (whose name he kept anonymous). They were disappointed that a post attempting to raise money for a loyal Carnival cruiser’s final expenses wasn’t allowed to be posted on his page. As the message said:

In some cases, however, cruise ships arrive late in port, and the hours change. That can create even more pressure for the hard-working crew to turn the rooms over, clean the ship

Cruise ship industry players are up in arms after the lower house of Mexico's Congress voted this week to charge a $42 immigration levy for every passenger on cruise ships that dock in Mexico.

Royal Caribbean, Carnival, MSC, and Norwegian are all fighting the new tax which would make Mexican ports very expensive to visit.
