Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. don't think it is anything to do with using OBC - which you need to phone to use anyway. It has been the case in the past that the loyalty discount is given when you purchase onboard but not when in advance...not sure if this has changed
  2. 2024 cruises all show Venice-Fusina or Venice-Chioggia. I read the 2025 cruises 'Venice' as 'not sure which port at this point but it will be in the vacinity' 🙂 Cruisemapper currently shows Azamara using Marghera (random search for May 2025)
  3. Just got an email through for trip on Quest next month Sip and Savor Every Moment at Sea Ultimate Beverage Package $26.95 USD per person/per day Expand your premium options even further with top-shelf spirits, wines by the glass, and bottled water. Special savings for Azamara Circle loyalty members. it implies (to me) that I can book in advance of the trip at that price less the Circle loyalty discount Still trying to work out which is best value as 17 night cruise so was tempted by Experience More package (I usually take Ultimate Beverage plus upgraded wi-fi and there appears to be confusion over whether the wi-fi Plus in the package is the standard or faster.) At $49.95 I would not upgrade drinks...usually do it for ease and use OBC but could probably pay as I go for less (even at 'old' price)
  4. from socials Quest Cruise Director currently Tanya Roberts Then Martin Lawson will take over from 1st April
  5. looks like some posts were deleted so #653 is now #647. I don't know about the discount. The only one they advertise is getting a discount when booking excursions onboard for a future cruise. they offer 10% discount if you book 3 or more. I have previously been given the tours list for another trip I was booked on.
  6. everything onboard in in USD....you may see any OBC in your local currency online before you board but it will show as USD when on the ship
  7. It is now $8 per day to upgrade from Premium to Ultimate a couple of points - unlike some other lines you do not have to upgrade everyone in the cabin (assuming the other person does not want/need Ultimate) The upgrade is for the duration of the cruise but you can upgrade at any point for the remainder. eg upgrade on day 1 of 10 day cruise and you will be charged 10 x $8...upgrade on day 3 and you will be charged 8 x $8
  8. not been possible on my last cruises, we asked on three as had late flights, ended up booking hotel day room. A couple of fellow passengers did manage it on Journey in Lisbon in November 2022 (paid to stay on till noon) not sure if that was in anyway connected to there being a port pilot strike so ship was going to be in port an additional 24+ hours
  9. this thread mentions "later in January"
  10. the roll call for July 26th 2024 does show that the cruise has been cancelled for drydock. (cruise still shows on website with pricing unavailable) With 4 other cruises before yours I think it unlikely that drydock will affect yours
  11. do you have a date for the dry dock? It was originally due to be 1st-14th April but that was cancelled and cruises in place. The only gap in the schedule in 2024 is now 28th April - 11th May which may be dry dock or could be a charter.
  12. the Journey cruises that are online and not bookable are from September 21st to 3rd December. Cruises prior to September 21st (which was an Israel cruise) are all still bookable
  13. that appears to be the list from the Ultimate package rather than Premium. Premium only has blends for Whisky https://www.azamara.com/gb/booked-guests/onboard-packages#link-beverages
  14. just returning to bring this thread to a close re missing FCC After receiving confirmation that I could extend end date, I booked a trip on Quest for November 23 and again the FCC could not be located. Took all my paperwork onboard and dealt with onboard booking team (leaving them to deal with Miami) and managed to get all outstanding FCC applied to a new booking for March 24. All paid in full now...should not have been this hard!
  15. wifi on Azamara used to be terrible however they have upgraded. There are two levels of wifi...the regular $19.95 per day if purchasing for the duration...this is SLOW but may be fine for some people. I work when onboard so upgrade to the fast wifi for an additional $8.95 per day and find this fine...I do access documents from cloud and deal with mail but don't do video calls. Note the prices are for one device but you can use it on multiple but only one at a time...when you log into a second device it logs out the first one. I have used the upgraded wifi on transatlantics on Onward and Quest. (previously most of my working was by tethering off 4G when in port if in Europe as my data plan covers this and would not have considered a transatlantic before the upgrade if needing to work)
