We got kicked off Icon of the Seas!!!

[@ttedford39]

You shouldn't say you got kicked off when it's a lie. You chose to accept their recommendation and that's an entirely different thing no matter what you thought might happen if you refused.

[@Diserella]

Yes, we left willingly. Our title was intentional to attract viewers, a technique commonly used by most vloggers.

[@cynthiahiatt2715]

If you listened to the video, she said they were ‘encouraged ‘ to leave. The title captures people’s attention. I can almost guarantee that if they did not heed the strong recommendations, they would have been then ‘kicked off’. Captain has final say.. Captain doesn’t want a liability. So not a lie, it is ones own interpretation. Kicked off, intimidated to get off, encouraged, pushed….

[@PedroTestas]

@@Diserella That, my friend, is the most honest answer I've seen on KZbin. I do think that not going on the cruise was for the best, not just for the cruise company, but for you too.

[@commonsense246]

@@Diserella I have unsubscribed to more channels for click bating than I subscribe. It's dishonest and aggravating. They start off well and after losing subscribers they resort to click bait....so I will not be subscribing to your channel. Sorry!

[@texasgirl8446]

So you guys were asked to leave because of medical reasons. Sounds like cruising is not for you. Maybe an all inclusive resort on an island. Sorry to hear that

[@Diserella]

We cruise 5 to 10 times/year. His potassium was a little low and was fine a few hours later at the ER. We will continue cruising and going to all-inclusives and many other types of trips.

[@cynthiahiatt2715]

They cruise often…people get unwell, doesn’t mean they have to stop travelling… this could have happened at an all inclusive too.

[@PeterM-l9w]

Glad you took care of yourself and I am glad you are able to travel again . Thanks for sharing

[@Diserella]

Thank you so much. It's crazy... our make-up Icon sailing was scheduled for last week and was canceled due to propulsion issues. 🤦🏻‍♂️ we're thinking we are just not meant to go on Icon. 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣

[@allisonwise3856]

So you didn’t get kicked off! Just say you had a medical situation…… and that’s why you had to leave!

[@Diserella]

Correct. We left willingly at their recommendation. The title is a common vlogger technique to attract viewers. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@davidrle23]

The alternative would be the ship finds itself 12 hours out in the ocean and they need to evacuate you at huge expense to you, the company and potential the other passengers if ports end up getting missed. I think the recommendation was a good one.

[@Diserella]

And so do we, as we said.

[@MCprosperity]

So sorry to hear... When your husband is feeling better, you can always try again... 2nd times the charm. Dont let one bad experience tarnish your cruising plans. Safety first. God bless you both, get well and try again on the high seas. 👍

[@Diserella]

Already rebooked!

[@mikefly562]

Honestly though, way better to be safe then sorry, especially when you are still on US mainland, so you really did make the right call to leave the cruise and play it safe. Out at sea or in a foreign port, it could have been an absolute nightmare if you got severely sick and had to do an aeromedical evacuation, or got too sick to travel and were stuck on an island for awhile. Hopefully you feel better to enjoy another Icon cruise in a few months.

[@Diserella]

Absolutely agree

[@CovitaFam]

Oh noh im so sorry for this, i know how much planning and $$ goes on praparing for this amazing vacation. I hope you feel better and you get your cruise credit back.

[@kmarshie]

They probably would have just had you sign some paperwork that says that Royal Caribbean would not be held liable if something happened while you were at sea and you all would not be able to get proper treatment and things took a turn for the worst.

[@Diserella]

No, that is not the case. You had to be there, I guess, but it was VERY clear he would not be allowed to stay. VERY, VERY CLEAR, but it was also in their best interest for it to be "our" decision to leave. And it was also in my/our best interest not to fight it.

[@raynash4748]

Your title is Very misleading. You were not kicked off.

[@Diserella]

Yes, we realize. It is a technique used to attract viewers that most Vloggers use.

Your health should be a priority over a vacation. I hope you are feeling better and get back on soon!

[@cynthiahiatt2715]

I'm so sorry....you guys were looking forward to this. Guess you will have to try again...once you are well.

[@Diserella]

Indeed!

[@AroundTheWorldWithEase]

I've had that low potassium/fainting issue. So sorry you were asked to disembark. It's the cruise line's loss.

[@Diserella]

Thanks! We will be back!

[@kathylewis2946]

did you get a full refund?

[@Diserella]

Yes, in the end, we did end up with a full credit. We feel confident that if we had pushed back on their 'recommendation', we'd have not been given the credit and very likely would've been banned from RC cruises in the future.

[@83bryanc]

You’re bashing royal at the cruise terminal in their wheelchair. Should have just sat down in the shade. Got something cold to drink rather than waste all that time just to not go. Pure drama

[@DiserellaAgents]

@@83bryanc Excuse me, 100% not bashing Royal at all. Furthermore, you do not know my husband's entire medical history, including the fact that he has two stents in his heart, among other chronic issues. Royal made the right call and so did we. This was not a situation of an otherwise healthy person without a heart condition nearly passing out who just needed to eat a banana, drink some water, and get out of the shade. The recommendation was to be transported by ambulance and the ER staff reitierated when we arrived there that that would have been wise given the initial findings.

[@83bryanc]

@@DiserellaAgents should of just stayed home if he comes with instructions like a grimlin

[@brianmccarthy1322]

missing some important private info here, are you a diabetic or do you have low blood pressure issues? in any event each cruise line has to deal with enough falls and medical emergencies on every cruise without letting people with an identifiable issue onboard. hope you get whatever is going on fixed and get on with enjoying everything good that life has to offer!

[@Diserella]

Yes, we did not discuss his whole medical history in the video. The cruise line made a prudent decision and we respect that.

[@jacecole]

Better safe than sorry, don't be mad, you'll get another opp soon!

[@Diserella]

Definitely not mad. Just disappointed. We will definitely be back.

[@Diserella]

Absolutely!

[@TheNauticalHippo]

do you get a "refund" or future sailing? or are you out of all that $$?

[@Diserella]

RCCL graciously gave us a 100% Future Cruise Credit although they did not have to do that. Always get travel insurance!

[@dunder2006]

So sorry you got kicked off - SUE ROYAL CARRIBBEAN!! SUE THEM!!!

[@Diserella]

Definitely not. They made the right decision.

@@Diserella it was good

[@jon.stan31]

Don't resort to clickbait. It's a poor technique.

[@Diserella]

The title is attention grabbing but, truthfully, there was no option for us to stay on the ship. It was made clear in no uncertain terms that we would be leaving the ship whether we agreed to go of our own accord or not. It was in their best interest and ours for us to agree to go willingly.

[@Dabeachguy]

Clickbait thumbnail = 👎 not subscribing. Why is it soooo hard to find honest content creators? 🤷‍♂️

[@Diserella]

Thanks for the input. All comments help. Here's the thing: Did we wait until they actually physically removed us from the ship? Obviously not! My wife runs a travel agency, and we would have been banned from sailing all RC owned lines going forward. You may feel that it's misleading, but if you were in that situation and told that you would not be able to continue the cruise if you didn't accept the 'recommendation', I think you'd feel differently. Thanks, again, for the input. 😊

[@ANF4LYFE]

Click Bait, you weren't kicked off, they recommended you disembark due to your health issue.

[@Diserella]

The title is an attempt to attract viewers, but in all fairness to us we were told that we accept the recommendation willingly or we would ee removed. There was no actual option to stay.

[@Diserella]

Yes, but in no uncertain terms we were told that we needed to accept the recommendation or they would remove us.

[@cynthiahiatt2715]

Awwww....Sending you healing hugs...can't wait to see when you get back on. This beats having to be medivaced off the ship.

Very true. We are trying to find a way to work another one into our schedule soon. It is going to be difficult.
