Maybe they should put up an itinerary for everyone to see that would allow everyone to plan their next moves in advance. Maps would be helpful.
That would have been a great idea. It must have been frustrating, and maybe still is, not to know when (or if) one is going to be taken out of a war zone.
Since the news media have been reporting which ships are where and where they'll be arriving and when, I don't think that maps would be out of the question.
Now, if the news media wasn't reporting what they were reporting, I'd understand your point a little better.
