Ever missed a cruise ship from a port ?

Always wondered what people did who miss the ship on a day in port. Many people wouldn't have their passports with them or a credit card, or know that they needed to find the port agent.
If you know any details, how did they get to the next port and what did it cost them ??

Not looking for what you COULD/SHOULD do, I'd like answers from people who had to actually find the port agent after the ship had left.
I worked for Holland America, on the MS Noordam. There are 2 world ports that we can always count on to lose people or staff.

Jamaica!!! People are always getting nabbed by the police for drugs and we have to leave them behind. They show up at the next port looking like trash, and are not happy at the cost.

Cozumel Mexico: Carlos and Charlies has caused more staff to miss ships than any other cause. Staff get to partying hard and drinking and miss their ships. The port agents who have to wait and find the staff have a name for these people.
