The captain advised us to remain calm even though we had no heat or AC
My wife and I went on a tropical cruise for 7 days.
It was our first time going on a cruise ship and we did not know what to expect.
Our room was a lot smaller than the brochure showed. Our two small beds were less than the size of a queen bed even after we pushed them together. The weather was rough the first few days of our trip. We had to stay indoors most of the time due to the terrible thunderstorms, lightning, and rain. After the weather cleared, I was hoping that we would be able to enjoy some of the activities on the ship. Unfortunately, shortly after the storm stopped, so did the ac. There was no AC at all on the boat anywhere. There was no air conditioning in the rooms or in the galley. There was no air conditioning in the game room, casino, or any of the restaurants. People were starting to get upset, so we heard the captain make an announcement. The captain advised us to remain calm even though there was no ac. We were going to dock the boat the next day in our port and the problems with the heating and cooling system would be fixed then. Until that time, we were advised to stay calm, drink plenty of fluids, and enjoy as much of the boat as possible. Honestly, the only good part about the whole trip was the two-day ride back home. We had beautiful skies, sunny days, wonderful weather, and no problems with the heating or air conditioning system.
