Miami to fly home. Thanks for any suggestions.

There is an interesting cruise out of San Diego to Alaska in 2009 with a
stop in San Francisco.  I live just outside of San Francisco- Can I just

Thanks...

to do with a security issue. Has anyone had a similar experience with any on
the other cruise lines or is this just something ...

did you ever have to cancel and if so was it hard to get  your money

    always been curious if they really do pay back all of it in case of
a emergency and you cant go on your cruise...
