A Parking and Bingo Question

[Debbie1967]

Parking Question:
I have a family member who wants to drive us to the port. Is there short-term parking available at the terminal? Would he be charged for a full day of parking? Can he wait with us in the terminal until we are ready to board? The same type of question about picking us up. Can he go into the terminal and wait for us to disembark?

Bingo Question:
I though I should ask this question since my six year old son is like the World Bingo King Champion if there was such a thing. I read that I would have to claim his winnings since he is a minor. My question is: Do you have to pay taxes on your Bingo winnings? If so, do they deduct it on the spot or do you have to claim it on your taxes?

Thank you,
Debbie

When we got to the port in Sept. we pulled to the curb to unload and told the baggage man we were going to be a while. As we were on a 10 day trip and had to pull out clothes for a 3 day cruise. I don't remember why we didn't seperate before hand. Anyway the guys taking the bags were super nice just told us take our time and let us know when we were ready. 30 minutes later we did and off my wife and kids went and I parked the car across the street. I'm sure dropping off want be a problem but I don't think they can go in the terminal. As far as Bingo next time I taking my money and go to a casino at one of the stops or just saving it. But if you son does win I'm sure you can collect his winnings. Don't know about taxes probably not since your in international waters. But you have to win first.

Since your family member won't be sailing, the car will be directed to the drop-off point in the parking lot across the street. You will drop your luggage there... the porters will take it. Then it's time for hugs and kisses because your family member will definitely <i><b>not</b></i> be allowed inside the terminal.

Bingo....best deal is to buy the set that is $35 and you can play 5 games. We played the last day for the big jackpot. The jackpot cards are $15 each.
You have to be an adult to claim the prize, but kids can play. Hubby won the jackpot (yeah!) w/two others, they split the pot 3 ways. No taxes are owed since out of US and they paid us in cash, over $1900!!!

We bought a few more souviners after winning
