As our time for our flight drew near I got a notification that our flight was delayed. My worry was how delayed. We had a ship to catch. Then I realized we had two days in Buenos Aires and we should be ok even if the flight was cancelled.\u00a0 However, when we got to the gate, we discovered it was only delayed by about 15 minutes. Whew! No worries\u2026we\u2019re good to go now.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Our seats were in an exit row with only a window and an aisle seat\u2026lots of leg room.\u00a0<\/span>Neither of us slept much this night, but thanks to the movies and flight tracker, where I could see us slowly move down the South American continent, we finally touched down in Buenos Aires at 9 AM on March 11th in a new Time Zone an hour ahead of EST.<\/span><\/p>\n Arriving in Buenos Aires\u00a0<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Leaving the plane, we took our 2 carry-ons and 2 personal items and headed off to baggage claim.\u00a0 We got our 2 checked bags and once we had everything, we headed out & through customs and immigration.\u00a0 Once done there, we exited into the main terminal to see the Viking Staff in their red jackets and Red Lollipops, waiting to greet us and walk us to the waiting pursers and coach.<\/span><\/p>\n We were told to take our passports & money, but no mention about other important docs I\u2019d need later. So, when we got off the coach and headed for the Viking Ship we had to first go through Viking customs, immigration and visa onboarding.\u00a0 I realized all my important docs were still in one of the other bags that I\u2019d given to the purser!\u00a0 Thankfully, they found our bags and I found everything! Success! I retrieved our Viking Boarding passes, our Brazilian visas and we were on our way!\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n On to the Ship<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n Now with all our docs, they took our passports and visas and gave us our keycards & docs to retrieve our passports at the end of the trip.\u00a0 From there the process was simple. We boarded another coach that finally<\/em> took us to the Viking Jupiter Ship, where we were greeted by a wonderful Viking staff and given champagne. We had a quick safety demo and then we started investigating this beautiful ship! <\/span><\/p>\n We were allowed to go to our rooms a little early & all our bags were already there\u2026so we thought.\u00a0 The bag that all my papers, meds, & additional clothes \u2026was not there! For the next 4-5 hours I kept asking guest services if it was found.\u00a0 Finally, it was found, apparently its tag had fallen off, but much relief when I saw them walking it down the hall! Woo Hoo! Now I could relax and we could enjoy our cruise! Which we did!<\/span><\/p>\n We relaxed and slept for a while after the bag arrived and we then that evening we went out on our first shore excursion\u2026\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As our time for our flight drew near I got a notification that our flight was\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-127","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=127"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":524,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/127\/revisions\/524"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=127"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=127"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=127"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"http:\/\/fonh.com\/sacruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Ship-Ext-and-Int-300x150.png\")
