Harold and Maude plan to take a cruise together, but they live in separate cities. The cruise departs from Miami, and they each book a flight to arrive in Miami an hour before they need to be on the ship. Their travel planner explains that Harold's flight has an 80% chance of making it on time for him to get to the ship and that Maude's flight has a 90% chance of making it on time. Assume that the event of Harold making it on time is independent of the event of Maude making it on time.

What is the probability that only Harold will make it to the cruise?
