they prob all share banned info, as the people will (if they want to cruise again) go onto another service, since they are banned from a particular one, and the others will not want them or want to risk hosting them.
@@lovedfriend2020 People get very creative on how to sneak banned items on all cruise lines. I've seen it unfortunately. Some people are just rule breakers but I'm glad they were caught because of their own stupidity and banned for life.
Oh you can take guns on airlines they just have to be in your checked baggage. You don't have to declare them by law when you check you baggage but its smart if you do because they know to keep an eye on it to make sure that it does not come up missing. Now an airlines could have a policy that requires you to notify the check in baggage people that you are bring a firearm on board as check in baggage so its just best just to do so in the first place. You can also carry guns on boats and ships under certain conditions. You must be able to posses the gun legally where you live and be either in your home countries sea boarders or in international waters. If you cross into another countries border that is when you get into a shit load of trouble. Also its best to let the owner and captain know you will be bringing it on board as they do have the legal right to arrest you and turn you over to the local police for prosecution of illegal possession of a fire arm.
HOLY COW!!!! Talk about stupid criminal tricks! I think they were trying to be cool about sneaking the weapon onboard and filming! I hope they get the legal "Book" thrown at them, and their names are shared with every cruise line in existence! The other big question is how the heck did the gun make it past security? That's a nasty lapse on the part of the cruise line. I wonder if the couple flew to their cruise departure point and somehow managed to smuggle it past airline security as well.....
It is legal to bring a gun with you on a plane. It has to go in the check baggage, needs to be on a locked box inside the luggage, and you need to declare it when you check in. I've done it many times. Now, if they brought it on their carry-on and security didn't find it, then that is illegal.
For the extra fees, I think this is just a sign of things to come. The ships are getting too big and too many people in port at once. Haines is a pretty spot, but gets overwhelmed even with a small ship.
When I lived in Ketchikan, the only locals who went downtown were the people who worked at the tourist shops. When I was there the population would quintuple for the time the cruise ships were docked. And after I moved away they extended the cruise ship docks so that more ships could dock! It’s too much for a small community!
My question too. We had to wait outside for three hours last winter as they ‘thought’ a gun got through security at the beginning of embarkation for our cruise. They went from room to room, even searching each room and luggage before they started embarking all the rest of the passengers.
@@LMiller-w4q I got stopped in Seattle for what they thought was a handgun. It was clay seal, yes the animal, arched up. I bought it in the airport! So I tell everyone I once had a concealed seal!
@dinospumoni8860 Odds are that loophole will be now be closed. There will be even greater scrutiny from security, which may slow down the boarding process for everyone.
Don. So many questions. How did it even get on? And had the nerve to film and post. Quite idiotic. So glad they were banned. Surprised not charged with endangerment or something else. Even if she kept the gun in her bag, don’t those go on a belt through security 🤷🏻♀️🤦♀️
Depends on if the gun ever left the ship while they were in a different country. You see on a cruise ship nobody's allowed to have weapons only deckhands the cooks in kitchens have knives . There is a maritime law when you're out at Sea there's yeah it's a felony .
All cruise lines should make it a standard inclusion - Banned from one/ banned from all cruise lines. Firearms offences should also include a cancellation for life of passports. These guidelines (declaration of dangerous goods/items) have been around long enough and notices displayed long enough. Let's make travel safe
If I lived in a port town that cruise lines were constantly stopping at, I would want 1 day of the week to be cruise ship free so the citizens could get their errands done without dealing with the crowds.
We have been some of older cruisers who travel frequently on cruises of 7+days. We have found that the longer cruises have fewer behavior problems. Unfortunately with the prices continually increasing we will have to take shorter cruises ‐NOT or fewer cruises - BOOHOOHOO.
The cruise lines must share & link these criminals. I cruise many lines now they go to Royal or Princess. ? Crap is always going to be crap. & I conceal carry in over 40 states.
Jeez, if security missed a gun, I wonder what else they've overlooked all this time. Thinking someone working in that port security might need to get fired.
It wasn't long ago you did a story about a man in jail in Turks Caicos. All he had was one bullet in his bag. In his case, if I remember correctly, he uses the bag when he goes hunting and just missed the one bullet when he cleaned out the bag. In this couples case, you can't miss a handgun in your bag. I can't even imagine why you would want to bring one to begin with unless it was purposely done to make the video.
The best thing about cruises is going to the same overcrowed port as every other cruise ship and knowing the locals don't want you there.....and who can blame them.😂
The plaque of hidden fees and taxes grows. Canadian airports have figured this out long ago and the fees they now charge often exceed the actual cost of the airfare. There was trend sometime ago to do away with all these tariffs but those days are now gone. Soon every port will have a fee on the fee.
Exactly! The fees added to airfare for international travel from the US should be criminal. And now cruises? It is crazy. Go check an international flight fare, actually pay attention to the fees part.
They need to check the security process at the port. I was always under the impression the security was airport grade when it came to weapons - other prohibited items (food stuff, electrical items, etc.) would require a hand search of bags.
Wow how did they get gun onboard? Glad they got banned. Cruising to Alaska is my favorite destination however it fares have more than doubled or even trippled in some cases; so now I am unable to afford my annual trip.
@@davidlaunderville5695 Nothing wrong with telling another cruise line that "these particular skin flutes brought a gun onboard. Do with that information as you will". Vegas casinos share info on cheaters.
I'm Glad they Posted it ... that's how they Got Caught. Now the Cruise Lines know they Have to up their security checks. So in my opinion, Posting in this instance was a Good Thing.
As I said it before the cruise line needs a system to see who is is ban and what for like they have a no fly list they should have a no cruise list all they need to do is put they information on to a list all the cruise line have access to and if they get flagged that means they can travel but that’s just my opinion
We have always skipped going on any cruises because of all the rules and restrictions. We have some friends that cruse all the time and have flown home at the first port twice now.
The one potential good thing about those people getting themselves caught with bringing a handgun aboard a cruise ship is that it highlighted to the cruise company they obviously had a lapse in their security protocol(s), and hopefully gives them the needed push to review and improve them.
Hi Don. We saw you leaving the Southampton Harbor hotel for the Princess cruise ship. We went on the Cunard Queen Anne to Croatia but will follow that with the HAL Rotterdam going back to Florida. Total 32 days. Thanks for the info.
Maybe the cruise lines should put out a survey and ask people what ports they want to visit and are willing to pay those extra prices or to skip them altogether. I see too much greed here on the ports. Yes, maybe they are for the expenses they put into the ports but are some of these really necessary? It seems like one port adds more fees, then the next one adds more fees and so on.
I don't understand why people would risk their vacation (and thousands of dollars) to get some clout on social media. I work too hard saving up for these cruises to play around like that.
Don, things like fully factory sealed sausage, like summer sausage that used to be part of Christmas baskets seems to meet the requirements. I’d think Vienna sausages, in a can meet the requirement too. They meet the TSA rules for carrying lunch aboard. The popcorn had it been sealed should have been okay too, except I’d be afraid someone would try to feed the stale rest of the bag to seagulls!
They snuck a gun onto a Carnival Cruise? I'm not surprised. Drunk'n gun fights around the pool. That's an exciting new daily cruise activity. When do the bars open?
Hi Don I hope you're well and enjoying your cruise. Those two are just banned from Carnival? That's bs they need to be banned on all cruise lines I don't want those two psychotic imbeciles on Royal Carribean with me or my fellow cruisers. I'll also add that those two should get jail time as well... and this is just one more reason for me to not sail on Carnival I'm staying loyal to Royal.
They need to be banned from all cruise ships.
Jailed and have gun confiscated and if they have license for gun have that taken away too.
they prob all share banned info, as the people will (if they want to cruise again) go onto another service, since they are banned from a particular one, and the others will not want them or want to risk hosting them.
They need to ban from all cruise lines like airlines
Airlines don't have a universal ban either unless it's something like a terrorist threat.
I agree.
Totally agree
@@QueenKayKay47 Please do not confuse these folks with facts--they can't handle it...
@@davidlaunderville5695 I see..... Lol
I'm surprised that they got by the security checkpoints. Wow. 😮
It seems Carnival only cares about food and maybe drugs because I seen videos people somehow get that on board.

Self-snitching is awesome! They should have never made it past security!
Exactly, someone wasn't do their job.
Haines is one of my favorite, less crowded ports, but it does need some improvements. I don’t mind the increase. Cost of one drink.
Good job on them! They established that it wasn’t an accident, but rather an intentional violation. Making Prosecutor’s job easier!🎉
I'll help everyone out: the banned couple story starts at 5:20. Spoiler: there's not much to it.
Thanks for that
Thank you!! I’m out. … Another case of ‘ short story long ‘. 🙄
Thanks
i wish i read the comments first.
Just stupid. All cruise lines should ban them.
They are, security is at fault
Hello Don, Hope you are having a Great day and cruise. This couple should be ban but the Question is how the Gun get past Security not good.
I think cruise lines should share info with airlines and border patrols to inhibit people from travelling with guns period.
Incidents like these are reported to Homeland Security. Unfortunately for you , traveling with guns isn’t illegal unless under certain circumstances.
Oh you can take guns on airlines they just have to be in your checked baggage. You don't have to declare them by law when you check you baggage but its smart if you do because they know to keep an eye on it to make sure that it does not come up missing.

Why ban people for traveling with guns?
Banned for life, fined and jail time
Based upon what statute--fined by whom...jail time for what? Please identify the criminal statute violated.
I fully agree
Sounds like they only broke a rule not a law. Jail and fines can’t be handed down by a corporation.
They are subject to the laws of the country of registry of the ship, not US law.
@@fshepinc
Territory waters dictates the law.
They should have been arrested!
That’s a major security lapse
Absolutely
Not sure how they were able to get through security as I always trip the metal detectors due to a hip replacement.
The stupidity displayed on the interweb is absolutely appalling 😮

An old philosopher once said Stupid is as Stupid does
Why didn't the cruise ship security should called cops next port they came to😊
For the extra fees, I think this is just a sign of things to come. The ships are getting too big and too many people in port at once. Haines is a pretty spot, but gets overwhelmed even with a small ship.
When this happens, I just spend less money in the port.
When I lived in Ketchikan, the only locals who went downtown were the people who worked at the tourist shops. When I was there the population would quintuple for the time the cruise ships were docked. And after I moved away they extended the cruise ship docks so that more ships could dock! It’s too much for a small community!
Fees help keep the port infrastructure up. If the local labor and good prices go up, doesn't it make sense to increase the port fees?
Cruise prices going up and fees going up. 😮 I guess we will have to cut back on cruising. 😔 How in the world did they get a gun on the ship? 😡
My question too. We had to wait outside for three hours last winter as they ‘thought’ a gun got through security at the beginning of embarkation for our cruise. They went from room to room, even searching each room and luggage before they started embarking all the rest of the passengers.

That's one reason why many people won't cruise with Carnival. If those people did it, they must not be the first. Or the last.
We won’t touch the cruise line with a ten foot pole.
Maybe they brought the other items on as a distraction and that’s how they cruise line missed the gun? 🤷🏽♀️
shouldn't have happened if security were doing their job.
If I lived in a port town that cruise lines were constantly stopping at, I would want 1 day of the week to be cruise ship free so the citizens could get their errands done without dealing with the crowds.
Juneau is voting in this very idea. I love cruising but I think it's a good idea. Locals need to be able to enjoy their own town.
@@rdangell2002 even better.. ban cruise ships 6 days a week so people can enjoy where they live. 👍
I'm glad they posted it - this way they could get caught! 😁
I guess they do not care if they got banned because they were dumb to record it and post it to social media.
We have been some of older cruisers who travel frequently on cruises of 7+days. We have found that the longer cruises have fewer behavior problems. Unfortunately with the prices continually increasing we will have to take shorter cruises ‐NOT or fewer cruises - BOOHOOHOO.
Pickles, sausages, and popcorn . . . pretty good diversions.
I think I'm more confused about the pickles than the gun. I mean, they have pickles on board - why bring your own?
I saw the full video of this. These two were no way ever going to cruiss again anyways. Look like total trouble makers.
The couple posted this on a Facebook page with a video just this morning. Now, their posting is gone from Facebook. How stupid can you be?
@towringer there's a full video of it from another cruise vlogers channel
They need to be ban from all cruises lines
That banned story is crazy. Hope the cruise is going well. See ya in a few days.
Hi Tony and Jenny!
I'm waiting for your video about this .
Ban them from airlines too
Jeesh, I wonder how they snuck it in. Definitely time to investigate the screening techniques.
Bringing the thug life to the cruise world.
Thank God the criminals love to broadcast their criminality. Why bring a gun? Makes no sense.
The cruise lines must share & link these criminals. I cruise many lines now they go to Royal or Princess. ? Crap is always going to be crap. & I conceal carry in over 40 states.

Exactly and people get pulled up for taking on steam irons, what a joke.
Look Don! We're wearing the same t-shirt! Can you see?
They're ignorant! Plain and simple! Lack any sort of common sense. These people walk amongst us.
I'm 76 and I've NEVER seen such greed in society.
How did they get it past the security at the port since you have to go through a metal detector and your baggage is scanned?
Someone was incompetent, they should be investigated.
Maybe it was in their suitcase. We all know they don't screen every case because people get bottles of booze through.
It wasn't long ago you did a story about a man in jail in Turks Caicos. All he had was one bullet in his bag.

Exactly and my husbands knee goes off due to knee replacement and they search him, and they let a gun through? go figure.
They went from “banned” to “criminals” real quick with this guy!😂
The security from that cruise should also be fired imo
Security at the cruise ports is a joke. Makes TSA look like super geniuses.
With the fights breaking out on Carnival, they just needed extra protection.
Just looking on Cruise Mapper. Looks like Villa Vie is moving.

That Celebrity Grand Voyage sounds wonderful bucket list trip.
It is getting harder to cruise for us with the raises in fees and prices.
So true, cruise lines upping their prices will price themselves out of the market, people just will holiday some other way.
At least they posted it before someone got hurt

Since the port authority is the one in charge of security scans of the luggage, the definitely need retraining.
Bringing food onto a cruise ship is the craziest part. Cruise ships are one giant feeding trough.
You make me laugh! You’re right - don’t post it!! 😂
Hi there Don n 👪 no gun in any ships🙏
We diverted to Hanes in bad weather but in late September the town was closed except a few small shops.
That’s nuts about the banned story hope everybody is OK.
Unfortunately nowadays common sense isn't all that common.
Why am I not surprised this happened on Carnival? 🤔
You know -just a stupid response
Exactly, I would never go with Carnival or Royal Caribbean, ever.
How many banned items have been brought through lapse security which haven't been broadcast on social media?
Ohhh sorry, I thought the headline read "Don Banned for Life and I'm glad".

So the cruise lines can make plans for other ports and skipping Haines. They don't want the tourist dollars I suppose.
Well......Well......Well!
They were very "unintelligent" criminals for sure.
Stupid is as stupid does I guess.
So, basically with about 6 friends with pew-pews and *I’m the captain now* 😂
Were they kicked off the ship? I think its interesting that they couldn’t detect the handgun. The magazines were easily found.
