At All-Star Weekend when asked how many years he has left, he said, "I have not mapped out how many seasons I have left. I know it's not that many." Two award-winning restaurants offering al fresco dining complete the property. Dine facing the ocean, next to the pool for lunch or dinner at the Beachside Bistro or join us at the top of the bluff for nightly piano bar dinners at the Summer House Restaurant. The duo are still committed to each other and use their star power as a couple on various endorsements. “Sometimes I don’t feel like I show that I appreciate you enough and that I love you because I feel like I also throw a lot of things at you.

Renters facing displacement from such projects say that timetable leaves them with less time to mobilize — or fight back. After the alien party, Kyle and Carl clean up, and Carl talks about his conversation with Lindsay the night before. He gets where she’s coming from, wanting him to be a bit more employed, but he’s saying just what many in the comments section said last week; it’s not like Lindsay has much more of a job.

Does Danielle Really Think Amanda Is “Stupid” and “Just Kyle’s Wife”?

“There have been a lot of false narratives and misunderstandings that have made this all the more painful but sadly at this time we are not moving forward with the wedding,” Carl said in his letter. “The fact of the matter is Lindsay is devastated and I’m crushed with how all this transpired. I graciously ask for some patience and grace to heal and recover while we navigate this extremely difficult time,” he added.

Either way, we're sure the locations they frequent will be nothing short of opulent as they traverse the East and West Coasts and even head to Norway. You may occasionally receive promotional content from the Los Angeles Times. Bass is looking to transform her executive order into a permanent ordinance. Although the proposal has been endorsed by the city’s planning commission, it has not yet come before the council. Appearing at Tuesday’s council meeting, Olivares begged council members to block the new project from being approved. Juarez said she’s not interested in moving into the replacement building.

As the real drama continues on Summer House Season 8 between former couple Lindsay Hubbard and Carl Radke, Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover are still treading water. And the Southern Charm star’s previous timeline of engagement by the end of 2023 is now obsolete. When the party moves indoors after hours, it fizzles a bit, but that mostly has to do with Danielle. She sits down with Gabby and asks her if she’s flirting with anyone. Gabby says that everyone acts as if she’s incapable of it.

Lindsay, Carl, Amanda Batula, Kyle Cooke, Danielle Olivera, Paige DeSorbo, Ciara Miller, and Gabby Prescod are back as main cast members. Former main cast members Samantha Feher, Mya Allen and Chris Leoni are rumored to be making guest appearances. The photo above isn't the first time Danielle has changed up her look or rocked a different hairstyle. Depending on your type of grill, it might require more frequent cleaning than others. Additionally, each type of grill requires a different type of cleaning, so keep that in mind before you get started. You can consult Home Depot's handy list of grill types and cleaning methods based on what you have.

Paige DeSorbo On the Attention She Got From Jesse Solomon: "If No One Hit On Me All Summer I Would Cry"

Danielle is right to tell her these things, but that is the next morning over a bacon, egg, and cheese conversation, not right in the middle of the party when the beer tears are going to flow the conversation. In the new season, “Summer should be fun, and our favorite housemates seem poised to indulge in the most carefree summer yet. But while some relationships start to take off, others are revealed to be more fractured than anyone could have imagined, according to a description from Bravo. Working in Investor Relations and a veteran of the Hamptons summer and standing tall at 6’5, he’s never had an issue with the ladies and doesn’t plan to start now, regardless of their relationship status. With a big milestone coming up at the end of summer, Jesse opens up to his new friends and finds solace in their support. Another thing that will massively drive up your electric bill this summer is a poorly insulated home.

To not only make your home bright and beautiful, but to ensure it will actually stay cool during those mid-summer heat ways New Jersey is known for, here are seven ways to get your home ready for summer. As far as locations go for getting away from their father but still remaining in the country, this estate makes for a pretty nice pick for the Roy siblings. We're eager to find out if it'll continue to serve as their base or if they'll abandon it in favor of a new meeting spot as the final season progresses.

The six-bedroom, 18-bathroom home—built by real estate developer Ardie Tavangarian in 2020—was constructed of woods, metals, stones, and board-formed concrete that were sourced from around the world. For a short period, the property was available to lease for $350,000 a month before it was reportedly sold to a young tech CEO in 2021 for a cool $83 million. At one point last year, the mayor’s team said that 46 units of new affordable housing were being permitted under ED1 for every rent-controlled unit targeted for demolition. Tuesday’s vote is the latest example of council members looking to rein in real estate developments that would result in the destruction of rent-controlled units. In December, the City Council passed a motion from Councilmember Kevin de León seeking a temporary ban on the demolition of rent-controlled apartments in Boyle Heights. But Juarez’s life was upended a few months ago, when she and her family learned their rental and 16 others on Toland Way in Eagle Rock were targeted for demolition to make way for new affordable housing.

There is nothing that can be done to help Gabby at this moment. Her feelings are valid, but her reaction seems a little outsized. The other crazy Ciara thing I noticed has to do with her manager, Derek. Then West allows Derek to give his wiener a little tap and, oh, man, now I’m even more jealous. There is something I have not given Ciara enough credit for this summer, and that is that her room has been much cleaner.

The last thing you want is to invite everyone over for a barbecue this summer and realize your outdoor grill is covered in gunk. Take the time to clean it now so it's ready to go this summer. In terms of cleaning, take some time to powerwash your home's siding, windows, garage doors, walkways, driveways, decks and patios to remove any excess dirt.

When Summer House season 7 ended, Lindsay and Carl were at odds with almost the entire cast, including Lindsay’s former bestie Danielle. However, most of the group seemed to make up while filming season 8, based on group pictures that were taken throughout the summer. The same can’t be said for Lindsay and Carl, who ultimately broke up towards the end of filming after getting engaged in August 2022. A big part of making sure your home looks its best this summer is by ensuring that your grass stays as green as possible, even during the hottest weeks. This means making sure your yard stays hydrated with your home's sprinkler system.

This was the first episode that I noticed what a mess it is, and we are well past the halfway mark of the season. She did have an overly complicated costume to prepare for, so I will let this one slide. Also, she was in said room snuggling with West, and I think a snuggly West can erase most ills from the world. "There have been a lot of false narratives and misunderstandings that have made this all the more painful but sadly at this time we are not moving forward with the wedding," Carl continued. "The fact of the matter is Lindsay is devastated and I'm crushed with how all this transpired. I graciously ask for some patience and grace to heal and recover while we navigate this extremely difficult time." While West says he's "definitely vibing" with Ciara, Jesse thinks he has a shot with Paige, apparently unbothered that she's in a well-established relationship with Southern Charm star Craig Conover.

Following weeks of rumors of his and Hubbard’s relationship status, he announced the news in a letter, which was obtained by PEOPLE, to family and friends that explained the decision. The Summer House season 8 trailer comes four months to the day from when Carl officially called off the wedding to Lindsay, which was supposed to take place in Mexico this past fall. As Summer House fans have learned in the months since news of the broken engagement became public, Carl and Lindsay's growing alienation had a positive effect on her estranged friendship with Danielle Olivera. Steps away in the kitchen, Carl says in resignation, "I’ll be the bad guy, that’s fine. But she’s blind to the things that have gone on the last year." The first shots of the trailer hold off on showing the exes at all, instead focusing on the trappings of their wedding, including a "BRIDE" makeup bag, as the two have strained conversation about trust and control. Peacock currently has 8 seasons of Summer House available for streaming.

When she starts looking for a new apartment in New York, Craig questions her choices and she is left wondering if her unwillingness to commit is going to push their relationship over the edge. Danielle is currently living full time in Montauk with Robert and working hard on her fashion app. After being besties with Lindsay and Carl for years, she suddenly finds herself feuding with them over their relationship, prompting a total shift in house dynamics.

I liked that Carl put some numbers to show how much they’re making being “influencers.” Lindsay pulled down $150,000 the year before in paid post, and Carl netted $70,000 mostly because he’s a dude and has fewer followers (but not by a ton). I would guess they’re also both making around $200,000-$300,000 a season on the show. In fact, it is far more than the average American makes (though the average American is not paying New York City rent or has Carl’s tight-pants budget). While there, they enjoy an exclusive, high-end lifestyle that allows them to let loose. “Booze-filled brunches, charity galas, bonfires and of course, drama-filled romances are on the docket for the young professionals in their summer playground,” according to a description on FuboTV. While it may be difficult to prevent any sort of mold growth in your home during the summer, there are ways to mitigate it.

I asked if they had a beer menu, she just simply said no and turned to the other customer who entered after I did. She served the customer all the way and even chit chat a little then finally came to me again. I asked again for the beer menu 'cause I wasn't sure if I heard her right first time. I had to ask her again what beer can I have, she just pointed drafts and refrigerator and said those are their beers.

Video posted on social media by news reporters on the scene late Tuesday showed officers putting some people to the ground and shoving others as they cleared people from the street and sidewalks. Just blocks away from Columbia, at The City College of New York, demonstrators were in a standoff with police outside the public college's main gate. Video posted on social media by reporters on scene late Tuesday showed officers putting some people to the ground and shoving others as they cleared people from the street and sidewalks. Before applying for a building permit, it is best to establish whether or not any easements exist on your property.

Our large pole buildings range in price from $36,000 to $88,000. Once final elevations for proposed ridge lines are established, a framework of poles is erected and connected with a band of construction mesh. When completed the story poles create an accurate silhouette of the proposed project and give a good indication of the size, scale, and massing of the project to follow. Pioneer Pole Buildings is the premier builder of post frame buildings in PA, NJ, DE, MD, WV, VA, and NY. Pioneer was founded in 1998, and has since built our business and quality reputation on providing customers with top quality buildings at very competitive prices.

The arrests followed a tense standoff between law enforcement and protesters Monday evening, when police told more than 100 demonstrators to leave. Around 9 p.m., a law enforcement vehicle drove by, announcing that the protesters could be subject to rubber bullets and chemical agents. "It's devastating to see it. The rigs, the engines, the flooring, the roof, it's all completely destroyed," she said.

Pole Barn Introduction

Fabien Lugo, a first-year accounting student who said he was not involved in the protests, said he opposed the university’s decision to call in police. The average cost to hire a construction worker is $50 to $100 per hour for a general contractor and $50 to $80 per hour for a handyman, plus materials. However, most general contractors charge 10% to 20% of the total construction cost. Police dismantled an encampment at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire just hours after pro-Palestinian demonstrators put up a handful of tents. Officers arrested multiple people, including at least one professor, according to local media reports. "After the University learned overnight that Hamilton Hall had been occupied, vandalized, and blockaded, we were left with no choice," the school said.

Finding California Pole Barn Kits

As we mentioned above, pole barns have an incredibly fast build time. This is because pole buildings don’t require a traditional foundation thanks to their post frame construction. Both a pole barn home and a barndominium are known for their large post frame construction and open floor design that is cheaper and more customizable than traditional wood-framed buildings.

To install reflective roof insulation, install at the eave girt and run it up to the ridge purlin while overlapping the next run with the 2″ adhesive strip provided with the insulation. It should be installed below the steel roofing and not in any overhang areas. DC Builders is headquartered in Portland, Oregon and has been in business for more than two decades.

There are setbacks for rivers, shores, flood plains, or other public spaces that need protection. You can store tools, garden and lawn equipment, and bicycles in this size shed. Plus, there should still be space leftover to move around easily. Ft. shed is generally considered medium-sized, and it can fit in a medium-sized yard.

As with any product, wood barn houses come with advantages and disadvantages. However, considering the fact that our wood pole barn homes are cost-effective, sturdy, quick to deliver, and easy to assemble, the advantages in investing in this type of property far outweigh any potential disadvantages. Depending on the size of the home that you ultimately choose, our small pole barn kits range in price from $7,000 to $18,000. On Columbia’s campus, protesters first set up a tent encampment almost two weeks ago. The school sent in police to clear the tents the following day, arresting more than 100 people, only for the students to return – and inspire a wave of similar encampments at campuses across the country. Brown University, another member of the Ivy League, reached an agreement Tuesday with protesters on its Rhode Island campus.

"We are also ordering an independent external review of both UCLA's planning and actions, and the effectiveness of the mutual aid response," the spokesperson said.

As a pole barn contractor that cares, we stand by our product and back every build with a 10-year warranty. Even without the unique building requirements attached to a pole barn home project, there is little information about new construction loans online. That is why it can also be helpful to check in with current pole barn homeowners to learn from their experience and get a better idea of what they feel did or didn’t work through their process. Thanks to online forums and pole barn homeowner blogs, there are a lot of great resources from people who have gone through this process before you that you can turn to. As you prepare your plans for your pole barn home, you should know early on that it’s not as easy to guarantee financing for an alternative residential space like a converted pole barn home.

To install your roof steel cleanly, pre-drill your screw holes for a better end result. Make sure you start with the steel installed with the underlap going in the direction you are installing—doing this incorrectly will require you to take off the panels and start over. Make sure all screws are screwed in straight and far enough for the washer to seal but not to overtighten and dimple the metal. Barndominiums are meant to be just that - barns turned homes. If your goal in wanting a barndominium is simply to get a traditional home at a lower price, a barndominium is not the right choice for you.

Another benefit of setbacks is that they keep harmful operations and traffic at bay. These rules determine how far your structure should be from adjacent properties/ street. Just look at any architectural design in California and you’ll note this. Are you planning to build a shop, home, or any other structure in California? Well, if you’re, you should know that you can build it onto the road or street.

After a couple of hours of scuffles between pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli demonstrators at UCLA, police wearing helmets and face shields formed lines and slowly separated the groups, quelling the violence. At least 15 protesters suffered injuries, and the tepid response by authorities drew criticism from political leaders, including California Gov.

And some aid groups say that with so much more needed, the focus should instead be on pushing Israel to ease obstacles to the delivery of aid on land routes. But any eventual aid distribution — which could start as soon as early May — will rely on a complicated logistical and security plan with many moving parts and details that are not yet finalized. The protesters maintained their position as dozens of law enforcement officers in riot gear, clutching guns and batons, marched into the university’s quad and cleared out Siemens Hall.

Burkhalter also criticized what she views as Jackson’s lack of engagement on campus. In 2015, students protested against the unexpected firing of the chair of the Indian Natural Resource Science & Engineering Program by occupying the university’s Native American Forum for a week. The university’s president at the time — Lisa Rossbacher — visited the sit-in and praised the students’ action. Tensions quickly escalated among students, faculty and administration, prompting the university to close down multiple times, then eventually for the remainder of the semester.

Some neighborhoods and communities have different sets of rules, and if you live in a community with strict guidelines, they might not allow you to build a residential barn home in the area. For example, your community could have home size or aesthetic requirements, and it’s possible that a pole barn home wouldn’t comply. Our homes come in many shapes, sizes, and styles, though, so it’s likely that you’ll be able to find one that complies with any regulations among our options. As opposed to traditional wall building, you’ll have to build the walls between the posts after you build on the post frames.

Pole barn kit pricing also varies by location because of regional differences in the cost of materials and local design requirements. Additionally, you’ll have to factor in the cost of optional features you want to add to your pole barn home. Click here for more information about prices on pole barns.

Depending on where you live, a pole barn home can help you save money on insulation. Pole buildings have fewer thermal breaks, which means you don’t need a very involved insulation system. The simple construction and spacious interior make a pole barn building very versatile. You can use one for various purposes, such as your primary residence, a bed and breakfast, a garage , a workshop or hobby building, or even a home gym.

"Yeah, emotionally they're having a tough time...," said Assistant Fire Chief Trey Espy.

Lewkovitch, who identifies as Jewish, said she wished the current pro-Palestinian protests were more open to people like her who criticize Israel’s war policies but believe there should be an Israeli state. Israel and its supporters have branded the university protests as antisemitic, while Israel’s critics say it uses those allegations to silence opposition. NYPD officials made similar claims about “outside agitators” during the huge, grassroots demonstrations against racial injustice that erupted across the city after the death of George Floyd in 2020.

This is an added cost to the post frame structure that has already been built. One of the most important steps to building a pole barn is setting the poles at the proper depth and square. First, set an accurate string line to mark your hole locations. Solid columns are rarely straight, so we recommend placing the post with any crown or bow toward the inside of the building so columns can be pulled vertical when trusses are set. After bracing each column, confirming dimensions, and making sure the building is square, you can pour your concrete footing and backfill the soil to grade. The Hansen Buildings vision is to be the industry leader in post frame building kits as solutions to personal living, storage and agricultural needs while making great service a priority.

To finish a pole barn home, the average cost is  $75-$95 per square foot for interior finishes. If your barndominium does not include a garage, the square footage cost will be higher since garage interiors are much cheaper to finish than living space interiors. Typically, the larger the building, the cheaper the square footage price. The warm shell of a barndominium costs, on average, $65 - $80 per square foot (depending on accessories). Pressure-treated posts or poles, or concrete footings, are planted deep into the ground so they can sustain a lot of pressure and bearing strength.

However, you’ll only get a variance in case of severe hardship. Local governments establish setbacks through building codes, ordinances, and zoning restrictions. They create these rules for public policy purposes like privacy, safety & environmental protection.

Fleas do not live on humans, but they can hitch a ride on clothing for a short period. Adult fleas can live on pets, such as cats and dogs, throughout their entire lifespan of 2 to 3 months. Fleas can also survive on furniture and other household items for several weeks, depending on access to a food source and environmental conditions. Fleas are incredibly resilient and adaptable pests that can cause discomfort and irritation to humans and animals alike. Their ability to survive without a host in various environmental conditions reflects their persistence and highlights the challenges in eradicating flea infestations. Fleas can survive in a house without pets for several months, especially if the environmental conditions are favorable.

While they prefer animals, they can adapt to feed on humans, particularly in homes without pets. The warmth and carbon dioxide emitted by humans attract fleas, making places like bedrooms ideal for them to thrive. Fleas, small flightless insects that commonly target mammals and birds, can be a significant nuisance in any household. While often linked to pets, fleas can also make their way into homes without animal companions.

What happens to fleas if they can’t find a host?

Without a host, adult fleas will eventually die due to starvation. However, this does not mean the problem will disappear on its own, as flea larvae can still survive and develop into new adult fleas that will seek out a new host. Fleas reproduce quickly and can multiply at an alarming rate. A female flea can lay up to 50 eggs per day, which equates to approximately 2,000 eggs over its lifetime. Due to this fast rate of reproduction, a small flea infestation can quickly become a more significant problem if left untreated. Understanding how long fleas live can be really important, especially for folks who own pets or houses.

What is the life cycle of a flea?

Ideal conditions include temperatures between 70°F to 85°F and relative humidity of around 70%. In such conditions, flea larvae can thrive by consuming organic debris and adult flea feces. The lifespan of a flea generally ranges from 2 to 3 months, but under ideal conditions, some fleas can live up to a year. In contrast, without access to a host, an adult flea may survive for just a few days. If the flea situation worsens despite your preventive efforts, seeking professional assistance is your best bet. A professional flea exterminator can provide effective and targeted solutions.

What is the life expectancy of a flea?

If there are no cats around, she’ll remain dormant until conditions improve and cats return—which could be weeks or months later. How to get rid of fleasThere are many things you can do for a pet to get rid of their fleas, like bathing and medications. But when you have a flea infestation in your home, the best thing to do is call a professional pest control company or exterminator.

Another reason why fleas can survive for so long is because they reproduce quickly. These eggs hatch into larvae within two days and then spin cocoons around themselves for protection while they develop into adult fleas. While they prefer to feed on dogs and cats, they can also feed on humans and other animals. However, fleas can live for several months without a host animal if there is adequate food (such as organic debris) and humidity levels. Flea eggs are tiny white ovals about 0.5mm long and difficult to spot with the naked eye.

Be aware that in the process of vacuuming, disturbed by the vibrating machine, fleas may actually emerge. The product is bitter tasting and salivation may occa­sionally occur if the dog licks the application site immediately after treatment and should disappear within some minutes. However, re-treatment may be necessary on some occasions, for example if your dog is a frequent swimmer; in these cases do not treat more frequently than once weekly. Sometimes vacuuming can make things worse by spreading fleas throughout your home. Here are some tips for how to get rid of fleas effectively and safely. Unfortunately, cats and their owners suffer great discomfort when fleas enter their homes.

Let’s figure out why these pests might be getting into your home and how to prevent a future flea infestation. Fleas are pesky parasites that can cause discomfort and irritation to both humans and animals alike. These tiny insects typically live for about 2 to 3 months, although their lifespan can vary depending on several factors. A flea’s life begins as an egg and goes through larval and pupal stages before it becomes an adult. Trained professionals like ours can provide long-term solutions to prevent future flea infestations.

If fleas can live for years under some conditions without a blood meal, does that mean that fleas can live on our bodies? While humans can serve as a temporary host for cat fleas, cat fleas produce more viable eggs if they feed on the blood of a feline. This parasite can also feed on the blood of dogs, opossums, foxes and rats. Fleas can survive indefinitely in a house without pets because they can feed on a human host instead. In an empty house, adult fleas can live for up to three weeks, but flea pupae can remain dormant for many months.

But don’t blame yourself – flea eggs and larvae are tiny and can be difficult to spot, especially if you don’t know what you’re looking for. As cat owners can confirm, cats like to roam strange and high places including on top of shelves, appliances, and other out-of-the-way places. Cats are more effective at spreading fleas around the home than dogs and require extra attention in the event of an infestation.

While adult fleas may die within a week without a host to feed on, the earlier life stages (eggs, larvae, and pupae) can remain dormant for extended periods. They can survive for several months, hatching into adult fleas once they sense vibrations, heat, or carbon dioxide from the presence of a potential host. Once inside your home, fleas can lay eggs on carpets, furniture, bedding, and other soft surfaces, where they thrive in warm and humid environments.

These waste products look like small reddish specks of dirt. This is often one of the first signs that you have fleas in your home. Diatomaceous Earth (DE) – diatomaceous earth is a non-toxic way to treat fleas in your home. The silica around the diatom cells dries out the insect’s exoskeletons, effectively killing the pests.

This LA neighborhood is famous for offering views of the Verdugo Mountains and beautiful parks like Brand Park and, of course, Griffith Park on its border. This park features more than 4,200 acres of natural terrain and landscaped park and picnic areas. It also holds the honor of being one of the United States’ largest municipal parks that offers urban wilderness areas. Many people enjoy hiking the hills and valleys to check out the wildlife.

The life expectancy of a flea depends on factors such as species, environmental conditions, and access to a host. Under ideal conditions with plenty of food, some fleas may live up to a year. However, without a host, an adult flea could die in just a few days. As mentioned earlier, adult fleas can survive only a few days to a week without feeding on a host.

It’s a popular loop trail around a lake that’s a little over 2 miles long. It’s great for both running and walking, and you can even bring a furry friend if your dog stays on a leash. Speaking of dogs, the Silver Lake Dog Park is also a great place to bring your pup. If you want to enjoy the best of Los Angeles without any of the downsides, Silver Lake is your best bet. It has amazing green spaces and the traffic and parking issues aren’t nearly as bad as other parts of the city.

If you follow these simple flea treatments recommended by vets, you should be able to avoid paying for a visit from pest control. We have all experienced or witnessed a good old-fashioned late-night dog howl or the cat who went to town scratching the walls. Many property owners see pets as a dicey situation and do not want to risk the potential for property damage or lawsuits.

Choose an insecticide that contains an insect growth regulator (ICR). These are chemicals (e.g., methoprene and pyriproxyfen) that prevent fleas from reproducing. Treat all soft surfaces, including carpeting, with the insecticide. Then keep pets and family members away from the treated areas for at least a few hours, until the insecticide has dried. To get rid of fleas in the house, address the issue from a number of angles by cleaning your pets, your pets’ bedding, and the most flea-vulnerable surfaces around your home. Fleas are notorious for their ability to torment both humans and pets alike, causing discomfort, irritation, and even triggering allergies.

Use a bank card and a white piece of paper to scrape over the bed - any flea larvae, eggs, or flea dirt will collect onto the paper. Another potential reason you have fleas without pets is that you may be harboring other pests like rats and mice that are bringing fleas into your home. If you’re stuck in the unenviable position of having fleas without pets, you know exactly what we mean. As well as spraying the house, wash bedding at a minimum 60 degrees if possible, just to be safe.

Alaskan Cruises: Do You Need a Passport?

• What to Do in Seven of My Favorite Canada Cruise Ports

To be clear, every cruise line recommends you travel with a passport even if you are on an Alaskan cruise. This is because should anything happen and you have to get off the ship in another country (medical emergency, ship breakdown, etc.), it’s much easier to get home with a valid passport. When traveling by air from Canada back into the United States, U.S. citizens are required by U.S. law to present a U.S. passport book. Passport holders from the below countries may be eligible for the K-ETA Electronic Travel Authorization program if they meet certain requirements. The below nationalities must have a K-ETA or South Korean visa issued from an embassy or consulate before the cruise if embarking or disembarking in South Korea. Passport holders from the below countries will require a visa from an embassy or consulate before the cruise to go ashore.

Visa Requirements for Nicaragua

Even though Alaska is part of the U.S., the answer can depend on the embarkation and disembarkation points, where the ship sails and your age. Customs and Border Protection says they do not require you to have a passport, but that it will likely be required by other countries that you visit. What if you aren’t an American citizen sailing from the United States and returning on a closed-loop cruise? Secondly, each cruise line has their own specific rules regarding documentation needed to travel.

Alaskan Cruises: Do You Need a Passport?

Because one of the most essential things before traveling is to verify and follow the regulations. This practice dates back to a regulation known as the Passenger Vessel Services Act of 1886. Thanks to something known as the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative, some cruises are classified as “closed-loop cruises.” These are cruises that begin or end at the same U.S. port. Let’s get into the details to help you understand what you need to bring on your next Alaskan cruise so that you’re not surprised at the gangway. Some places in America’s largest state are not even accessible by road, so a cruise ship is the ideal way to see many wonderful sights without having to pack or unpack.

There's no need for a passport when you sail on any Hawaii inter-island cruise. If the ship never sails beyond the islands of Hawaii, all you need is a government-issued photo I.D. Which includes a passport or a valid driver's license with a photo. While some cruises don’t require you to travel with a U.S. passport book, we always recommend you bring one on your trip, even on a closed-loop cruise. If you need to fly back to the United States during your cruise, you’ll only be able to board a plane with a passport book.

It is crucial that you understand whether you need one or not prior to booking your cruise, as no refunds are provided for failure to provide proper documentation. While these options are convenient, they do come with limitations. You’ll miss out on international ports like Vancouver or Victoria, British Columbia, which are common on many Alaska cruise itineraries. It’s called the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI) and the rule has a section for “closed-loop cruises.” These are cruises that begin and end at the same port.

Are Passports for American Citizens on an Alaskan Cruise?

Check your cruise line’s guidelines regarding required travel documents before booking your cruise. Additionally, you may need a multiple reentry visa (B-2 Visitor’s Visa) or an ESTA if you’re from a Visa Waiver Program country. Always check the specific visa requirements for your nationality. If you are a U.S. citizen and your Alaska cruise starts and ends in the same U.S. port, you technically don’t need a passport.

If you do not have an appropriate birth certificate, a Consular Report of Birth Abroad issued by DOS or Certificate of Naturalization issued by U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services will most likely work; however, you will want to check with your specific cruise line. The requirements are clearly stated on their website, but you can also call them or speak with your travel agent if you have any concerns.

Many passengers have shared their harrowing experiences of the storm, recounting the terrifying moments when the ship was tossed around by powerful waves and buffeted by strong winds. Meanwhile, rescue vessels were dispatched to assist in the evacuation of passengers if necessary. The crew’s training and preparedness were put to the test as they worked diligently to keep everyone safe. The Carnival Sunshine storm incident of 2023 was a harrowing experience for passengers and crew alike.

How Many Carnival Cruise Ships Have Sunk?

Before the rear segment is cut free, support vessels weld enormous air-filled metal boxes called caissons to its exposed starboard side. These are partly filled with water, adding weight that rotates the stern upright when it is cut free. On both sides these are filled and emptied of water, to reach the perfect level of buoyancy to keep the stern afloat.

What are the main causes of cruise ships sinking?

The probable causes of the disaster are believed to be the flaws in its design and construction, inadequacy of its ballast tanks and overloading. The ship initially listed to the starboard side and further to portside, throwing off passengers and trapping some in the interior cabins. RMS Empress of Ireland, which sank in the Saint Lawrence River in May 1914, claimed the lives of 1,012 people out of the 1,477 people onboard. It was the second major cruise ship disaster after the Titanic disaster. The Ocean Liner operated on the North Atlantic route between Quebec and Liverpool in England.

What is the Draft of a Cruise Ship? (and Why Does it Matter?)

By holding cruise lines accountable and implementing necessary changes, regulatory bodies contribute to the overall improvement of safety standards in the industry. It is imperative for cruise lines to regularly assess and update their fleet to meet the latest safety standards. By conducting thorough inspections and implementing necessary upgrades, cruise ships can better withstand storms and minimize potential risks to passengers and crew. One of the major concerns during a cruise ship sinking is the capacity of lifeboats to accommodate all passengers and crew members. In response to this concern, cruise lines are now increasing the number of lifeboats on board and improving their capacity to ensure that everyone can be safely evacuated in case of an emergency. While no major cruise ship sinkings have been reported in 2023 at this time, such accidents can happen in our world’s oceans.

SS Eastland

Ships are equipped with advanced fire alarm systems and sprinkler systems to quickly detect and extinguish fires. Crew members are trained in fire safety procedures and drills are conducted regularly to ensure everyone knows what to do in case of an emergency. Overall, the design of a modern cruise ship is a complex process that involves careful consideration of several factors.

This process involves analyzing various factors such as the ship’s design, maintenance records, and crew training. It is important for passengers to pay attention during these briefings and to familiarize themselves with the ship's layout so that they can quickly and safely evacuate if necessary. Cruise ships are designed to be as safe as possible, and the crew undergoes extensive training to ensure that they are prepared to handle any emergency situation that may arise.

There have been no recorded instances of a Royal Caribbean cruise ship sinking. From its fleet of Carnival brand cruise ships, none have ever sunk or capsized. The fire started in the vessel’s engine room while it was sailing from Malaysia to Singapore. Collaboration between regulators and cruise lines can take the form of regular meetings, sharing of information, and joint initiatives aimed at addressing safety concerns.

Sister ship of the Titanic, HMHS Britannic was the third of White Star Line’s Olympic Class of ocean liners and she was originally intended to serve as a passenger ship. The cause of the sinking was the ship hitting a rock underwater, resulting from the human error of the ship’s captain who has since been found guilty of manslaughter. So, let’s sate that interest (or quell those fears) with a guide on the cruise ships that have sunk in recent times. The SS Andrea Doria collided with the eastbound Swedish passenger liner Stockholm due to poor visibility caused by a thick fog. The disaster took place in July 1956 near the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts, while cruising towards New York City resulting in the death of 52 people, while 1,660 people were rescued.

How Often Do Cruise Ships Sink?

When we delve into the historical records, the collision is the most common cause for the cruise to sink. Later, the inquiry commission blamed the electric plant of Georges Philippe for being troublesome from the start, which caused an electrical fault and thus caught fire. You live in an evolutionary decade where engineers build rock-solid cruises with high-level skills and techniques. Solo travelers looking to book European cruises have a range of options when it comes to cabin accommodations.

The bad sea conditions forced the ship to initially list on the starboard side and later sink completely. RMS Titanic measured 269.11m in length, 28.042m in breadth, had a gross tonnage of 46,328t and comprised nine decks. Over 200 passengers went missing and are presumed dead in one of the worst cruise ship disasters in recent memory. The total cost of the disaster, including victims' compensation, refloating, towing and scrapping costs, is estimated at $2 billion, more than three times the ship's $612 million construction cost.

However, there’s always the chance of a rogue wave event, which has been suspected of sinking other ship types, but thankfully not a cruise ship. However, in more modern times, since 2000, only 4 cruise ships have sunk while out at sea, an average of once every 5.5 years. From the table, we can see that in 110 years, 16 cruise ships have sunk. Thankfully the answer is very rarely, but there have been a few notable instances where cruise ships have met with accidents leading to sinking.

However, fears regarding their safety, often fueled by infamous maritime disasters and dramatic depictions in films, lurk within the consciousness of many travelers. That’s not exact, obviously – more ships have been built more recently and there are over 300 cruise ships currently sailing, so an average of 150 for the last 50 years is probably accurate. And some ships sail longer itineraries and some sail regular 3-4 day cruises. She struck an iceberg in 2007, and everyone on the ship took to the lifeboats, including 91 passengers, 54 crew and 9 expert guides. The cause of the sinking was the boiler breaking off, which caused sufficient damage to sink the ship. There was a lot of controversy at the time, as some believed it was an intentional incident (the scrap value of the ship was around $6 million but it was insured for $20 million).

Passenger education and awareness are also crucial in promoting a culture of safety on board cruise ships. Informing passengers about safety measures, emergency procedures, and the importance of following instructions can help reduce panic and improve overall response during a crisis. Cruise ships are subject to a wide range of regulations and safety protocols to ensure the safety of passengers and crew. Overall, while cruise ship stability is a critical factor in ship design and operation, incidents of capsizing or rolling over are rare. Cruise ships are equipped with a range of safety features and undergo regular inspections and maintenance to ensure that they meet all safety standards and can operate safely in a variety of conditions.
