For those of you who are wondering, yes I am a Travel Agent and I work with anyone in Canada and the United States :) - Zábava
My neighbor was a Tuskegee mechanic for the planes! He also lived to be 100 years old! They were amazing!
🥰🙏🏽🎉
Praise for him!
We love our vets
Hey Don!!! My dad actually lives in Lieutenant Colonel James H Harvey's house right now. The town where he grew up in honored him a few years ago. I work at a hotel in PA where he has stayed. I have pictures with him and my dad has pictures with him at his house. It was such an honor to get to meet him and sit with him and talk to him. I will always remember getting to speak to him and being such a beautiful soul. HAPPY 100TH BIRTHDAY TO HIM!!!
What a great thing Princess did for that airman. They are true heroes 😊
I just love that Princess honored that pilot!
Don, I was on the Queen Mary 2 last June and James Harvey was on there along with the other living members of World War 2. It was such a pleasure to meet him. My daughter and I were blessed to see these gentlemen and hear their stories.
The Tuskegee airmen were and are heroic Americans. Thank you for mentioning them, they have a special place in history. Hope all is well with you Don
So glad to see veterans honored like this, especially these genuine heroes!!!
Tuskegee Airmen are among my heroes. Thank you, Don, for sharing that story with us and thank you Princess for hosting that event.
All veterans are my heroes.
Thanku Don for doing the story about the Tuskegee Airman that was honored on the cruise. They're removing our history more and more all the time so thanks.❤
History is only history if people are interested in it. It is up to historical stories/people to be interesting enough or have something to do with “today’s times” to keep it spoken about. Some history is meant to be forgotten. If no one alive thinks of it then it isn’t important to them their lives or their history. Why live in the past we only get 80 years of life if we are lucky and I don’t waste one second thinking of history that never entered my life. 🤷🏼♀️
@@allytrudie864 you sound crazy... how tf can you think of something that you know nothing about... but that same history that you don't think is important, shaped the entire military aviation landscape. Just like majority of the inventions that you use today, came from some of the ppl you don't find important. So give it back dammit 😤
My grandfather was a TUSKEGEE AIRMAN! back in WWII!! when he was alive we all went to FRANCE and he received the purple Medal of Honor!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 He had lived a long time! Prayers on this TUSKEGEE AIRMAN living to 100!! That is amazing!
Apparently these amazing men only lost 27 bombers they were escorting while undertaking 179 missions . What an incredible group of men.
Absolutely Awesome
Never lost a bomber to enemy aircraft. I was blessed to get to go to flight training back in 1986 in Tuskegee with some of the original airmen.
They didn't even use airplanes. They just flapped their arms and bit the wings off enemy planes. . .
We all need to remember the Tuskegee Airmen. Kudos to Princess Cruise Line for honoring that hero. Is there a way to tell if you're booking thru a third party and not the cruise itself? Would traveler's insurance help in a situation like that?
Salute to James H. Harvey! Thank you Sir for your service. ❤
Fabulous how they honored that gentleman!
Thank you for a fantastic history lesson. I saw the movie a few years back and it was so interesting. I didn't realize any of them were alive now.
It’s shocking to think they not only missed their cruise, but also may not get refunds. How awful!
Surely the cruise line should take some responsibility. Even if it was a charter.
You are the greatest Don! Thank you for all the wonderful and relevant content.
What an awesome story. We must never forget our Airmen and Vets.
My grandpa was a bomber in WW2. He would've been 114 this year (born in 1909)
I'm so thankful for the service your grandfather did for his country
How's Dad doing? sounds like he's enjoying your visit. I pray that your visit brings good "animo" and energy.
Thank you for keeping us up to date on the cruise news!! 😊
Thank you for all you do and the History on the real Top Gun veteran who was honored.
I will remember this tip on booking cruises directly with the company and not 3rd party. I’ve have yet to cruise and I’m doing lots of research and watching vlogs to get ready for mine in the future.
Thanks so much for covering this story Don these men are true Heroes!!
I like your videos of cruising. Let tell your viewers about my last cruise. My partner and I departed Perth, Western Australia in mid March this year bound for Brisbane , Queensland . Four days into the cruise both my partner and I had Covid and were isolated in our cabin for 6 days. We had great room service for our meals and drinks in our cabin. Sat on the balcony with a glass of wine and enjoyed the scenery along the coast. The service was excellent, for food was good and we enjoyed the time together. This cruise was on the Coral Princess. When out of our cabin we enjoyed the entertainment, music and Bars/lounges, dancing and overall, a very good experience. I have watched every movie/documentary about the Tuskegee airmen and their exploits. cheers to all.
Hey Don. Nice of Princess to honor Tuskegee airman and acknowledge him on his 100th birthday. My brain 🧠 💡 is not understanding why they were denied boarding. They payed regular price and denied. So those rooms are now available and the ship is leaving 500 ppl short? 🤷🏻♀️.
I am with you, Don. I will stick with the major cruise lines.
Don, I'm so glad you got down to Ontario to visit with you Dad. I hope he's enjoying it and that he feels uplifted. It sounds like you & relatives are pretty busy (even though there isn't much to do in the area where he lives).
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 Tuskegee Airman!! Happy 100th birthday!!
Really great to honor a hero turning 100.
I've been on several charter rock 'n' roll cruises called On The Blue. The same charter company also runs cruises called Monsters of Rock and Cruise to the Edge, which has a progressive rock emphasis. I'm here to attest with 6 cruises under my belt and next year's sailing already booked, they have been great to deal with.
Good evening don how are you and your step-dad doing hope all is well ❤
I met Col Harvey years ago, great guy! I was honored to have dinner with him
Thank you James H. Thank you for sharing this Don. Thanks Princess.
I'm glad you're able to enjoy time with your family...in between cruises of course! 😍
You look great Don having fun with family is always very healing and uplifting ! You are very blessed, Enjoy !
Don you are a true GEM,
You are so kind, God Bless You.
Good educational video Don. Thanks for the heads up; I had no idea!!!
Thank you for your service, Mr. Harvey
My wife checked him in and said he was a super nice guy!
Here’s a suggestion for a future post-best ways to resolve problems with the various cruise lines! You could include phone # and emails, twitter handles, etc. as well as how to best address issues while on-board as well as pre-cruise and post-cruise. And give examples from your own vast experience. #cruiseproblemshowtosolvethem
Happy Birthday James and thank you for your service!
Sounds like great family time Don!😊
Well, I booked a cruise directly from Royal, and were denied boarding. When I was booking it, I told them my baby doesn't have a passport yet, she assured me that the birth certificate is enough and I booked that cruise 3 days prior to boarding. But they told us at the port, we cannot go without baby's passport. She basically lied to me, just to sell us that cruise and Royal refused to refund us. I don't know what to do
Thank you Don for sharing that story 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🥰🥰🥰 History is so important to know
You are so down to earth Don. Enjoy this special time with family
We wandered onto a cruise that was an Elvis convention. I had a lot of explaining to do to our then 10 year old. They planned it independently but worked directly with NCL to make the arrangements.
There are many high end tour operators, who do business in this way. River cruises in China, Egypt, Europe, as well as ocean voyages in Amazon, North/South Poles, etc.
Thank you James for your Service..100 years old ..hope he had a marvelous time !
I glad you are enjoying your time with your family.
I’d do very intense review research before signing up with such a cruise. Some of these music cruises with great lineups sound awesome and perhaps we’ll try one day.
Great story!!! Thank you.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIR🎉 THANK YOUR FOR YOUR SERVICES!
Hey Don still looking like you and ready for your cruise. Of course I'm sharing, love your videos
I remember being dumped at the Spanish border with France along with a train full of people at dusk and waiting on a freezing train platform overnight without shelter. Hearing this is no shock.
We have sailed on the Keeping The Blues Alive cruise (Norwegian) seven out of the last nine cruises. Sixthman (the booking entity) did an amazing job. I feel bad for these folks that got ripped off.
I never took a cruise so thanks so much for your info you saved me from making the same mistake and loosing my retirement money a huge hug and a huge THANK YOU 😢😮❤
God bless him and all of our veterans. 🙏🇺🇸
Have great time with your family DON! 🎉🎉 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 go and enjoy them….. thanks you for mentioning the TUSKEGEE AIRMEN!!😎😎😎😎 Do appreciate it!!
I just yelled to my husband: “Come look at Don, it looks like he’s been on a Bender 😂😂” ! Love your videos ❤
🤣🤣😂👍
@belligirl21. Nasty girl!
Thanks for the News
Awesome stories, thanks 😊😊😊
WOW ... How awful that these 500 individuals were denied a cruise they paid for. Yeah ... I try to stick with the major cruise lines that are legit. Interestingly enough, my first cruise was actually a themed cruise booked through a third party on a Carnival ship. I'm grateful I got what I paid for as I had to fly to the cruise port. I hope the 500 passengers can find some recourse to recoup their loses.
Hi Don, what if you book cruises through vacations-to-go, are they considered third party?
I've done a chartered Metal cruise (Shiprocked) for the last 9 years, and we never had any major issues with the cruise line. First 3 years were on NCL and the last 6 (and next years too) were on Carnival. The Captain has done an amazing job putting everything together.
Myself and my wife have just reached home about 2 hours ago from our Alaska and Canada cruise on the solstice it was fantastic so I have a lot of catching up to do with your videos don cheers
Oh my goodness gracious! !!!
Denying ppl to get on a cruise they paid for and not refunding the money is criminal. These ppl need to make a huge fuss if they are not refunded their full amount.
The cruise outfit is probably little more that a shell company with no assets and probably to funds to reimburse or pay fines.
I would be lawyering up
Amen!!🙏🏻❤️thankful for this honor!!
Just another reason to plan on a staycation!
I've been on a cruise that was based on Pittsburgh sports teams and had a great time, but I would look into info on cruises having to be booked with a booking company for sure. 🙂
Kudos to Princess 💜💜💜💜
You are so blessed to have family ❤
Thank you for covering the beautiful recognition of Lt. Harvey, not sure if that was his rank, but it should have been at least that, and thanks to Princess Cruise Lune for making it possible.
Glory!!🌹
The major diff is that US based bookers have to hold payments in escrow any final. And the FTC pays very close attention to it. I'm sure Canada has similar protections.
I have had the honor to meet Col Harvey on several occasions. His book The First Top Gun is fascinating.
Like you, I stick with the Big Ones.
Don, take care of you😁💓
I was lucky enough to be on a plane and also a Tuskegee Airman was also flying. An announcement was made and everyone gave him a round of applause but the airline moved him to First Class. Well deserved respect
We just celebrated him 2 weeks ago at a gala event!!
I admit I am tempted to go with some type of genre / singer / speaker on board, but . . . timing has never worked out for me on that. I have learned to cruise to places I want to go to but would not go without a cruise. Hope your family visit is fruitful for all.
Awesome
As usual, Don is always so cheerful, positive and full of “good news.” 🙄🙄🙄
Why do you watch if you don't like it?
@@iandean1112 Why do you reply to a comment you don’t understand?
🫵🏻🥴🤡
Hope your doing well Don. I enjoy your videos. Take care of yourself.
Wow .... we met aTuskegee Airman on one of the cruises we were on. I couldn't tell you what his name was this was probably 10 20 years ago.
That was the significant of Tom cruise flying the plane at the end of Top Gun Maverick. ❤
I always go with the “ original “, nothing to worry about 😊
I use a third party that provides specialty cruises. I think they do it right. They do not rent the entire ship; they book a number of staterooms of various types. They work with only one of the major cruise lines. They have been in business for almost 2 decades and I have been on 6 cruises with them since 2009.
That’s pretty outrageous Don. I wish you had said what country this was. I don’t see how it’s legal anywhere to keep someone’s money when they couldn’t go through no fault of their own.
It’s as if he was deliberately avoiding naming the location and giving out facts. Thailand currency unit is the Thai Baht which indicates most likely it occurred in Thailand.
@@salty_flightdeck_cpo I was thinking Thai Bhat too....
He might get CZcams banned for racism, so that’s why he avoided saying the name
Tim,enjoy your family,some you like and some you do,but their Family!❤
I'm so glad you got to spend this time with your family considering your recent post. 😞
That sounds insane.
Thanks.
Hi Don
Love golf!
You look tired. Get some rest please
Tuskegee airmen were amazing men! ❤
❤
I go thru a travel agency company to book my cruise because it has worked well for me for the last 10 years but NO specialty cruises....It has to be a standard cruise on their itinery program
Happy 100 Birthday .
Yes
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
