Yay!! Friday is supposed to be 80 degrees up here so it will be a glorious Sea Day for you! And Saturday looks like a beautiful New England day. Do you have a Boston excursion?
I donāt see why it would be cancelled! I have pre-booked Ubers plenty of times. But regardless, I promise you that it wonāt be difficult to get an Uber at Newark.
I pre-booked an early morning Uber for my daughters to be picked up in Kissimmee to go to MCO. The next morning when I woke up, it had been canceled. Unfortunately, it does happen. We were able to grab another one fairly quickly, but I had to pay a full $25 more than I had booked the day before. I was looking for the female driver designation, however.
Because we keep seeing vloggers who talk about their pre-booked Ubers being cancelled on them just before their cruise!!!
Weāre just doing the hop-on hop-off bus so that we can focus on the specific things we want to see.
Yesterday, DURING our flight to Newark, my MIL had what we will call an episode. The doctors arenāt sure, but originally thought she had a stroke. She went unresponsive (as in nonresponse to stimuli other than pain) for a while. They ran all sorts of tests, but found no evidence of a stroke. An hour later she was back to herself (which, due to her dementia, doesnāt mean ānormalā).
My wife was distraught and we were preparing how for her to proceed. Fly back home immediately? Wait until this morning? But after speaking with my FIL, we are still getting on the shipā¦but with a plan in place that if my MIL takes another turn, then my wife will get a flight back home from one of the cruise ports.
In the very least, it will mean my wife will not be able to focus wholly on relaxing during this trip.
So sorry to hear of this development and hope things remain stable and your wife gets to take a breath!
Thatās terrible. So sorry. If you need help at all before or when you get to Boston, shoot me a DM.
I am deeply sorry to hear this @ryan1
I will pray for MIL and FIL.
Also praying DW can find a measure of peace and enjoy her vacation.
MIL is in Jesusā hands. Praying DW has peace that transcends the situation.
Andā¦Uber cancelled our ride. Sigh
ETA: Uber said my payment method is invalid, but it isnāt. I confirmed three times, and even used the payment method to load money into my Uber Wallet to be sure. That worked. But they still cancelled it saying payment is invalid.
I have rebooked, but hopefully that wonāt get cancelled. In the meantime I chatted with two different support people in the app and they were quite literally the worst support people I have dealt with. Zero support whatsoever other than platitudes.
not bc āthatās greatā but in solidarity.
Iām sorry.
It happened to me in June. Itās so lame.
Do you have Lyft? I vastly prefer Lyft.
I agree.
@ryan, I am sure your wifeās worry will impact you too. I hope there is a report that will allow you to both enjoy the cruise.
My wife got a 1 pm flight back home. I am getting on the ship. But I might end up getting off in Boston and headed back. This was a heart-wrenching down to the wire decision. But her Mom just isnāt headed in a good trajectory, and she just said there was no way she could forgive herself if something happened while we were at sea. If tomorrow wasnāt a sea day, she might have gotten aboard.
Oh no @ryan1 . I hate this so much for her! (and you).
Oh @ryan1
We are all so disappointed along with you.
Iām sorry youāve had to make these decisions & Iām so sad for your DW and your family.
so sorry!
I am so sorry!
Ugh I am so sorry for everything about this situation.
What a hard situation. Iām so sorry, and I wish the best for all of you.
