  1. The earlier you book the bus from London to Southampton, the cheaper the ticket. They will not depart the station until all have put on their safety belts. Our driver was kind enough to call our car rental as we didn't have a cell phone at the time.
  2. Did our 'once in a lifetime' cruise out of Sydney on 2020 just as Covid raised it's ugly head in China. DH insisted that we fly business class from the U.S. We flew on Qatar Air and it was amazing! We stayed in Sydney for 4 days before cruising around New Zealand. Returned to Sydney, sailing up into the South Pacific before returning to Sydney. In Sydney for 3 more days before flying back to the U.S. Wish we had spent even more time in Sydney. Would have loved circumnavigating Australia but it just wasn't feasible for us. Highly recommend the trip if you can afford it!
  3. One item hasn't been listed. The day before the cruise you will have to answer a health questionnaire on the app. Every thing else has already been mentioned.
  4. Don't know about bourbon. The best prices in St. Maarten are found away from the port. I buy my liquor in a small shop on Front Street.
  5. They don't show up until 30 days before the cruise.
  6. On our last cruise, the pictures that turned out the best, were the ones taken at dinner. The picures taken in front of the backdrops appeared as uncomfortable poses. I think the change in the announcement is the 30% off photo package and photo book.
  7. Did a transatlantic a few years ago. We were at a table for 8. One couple came to dinner 30 minutes or more late every night. We has to wait for them to catch up. That was definitely rude.
  8. I am on that cruise. Emails have been sent to few booked offering a deal to change to another cruise. It does appear that the ship has been overbooked.
  9. Blame it on RCL's IT department. The FAQs haven't been updated. Mask wearing is up to your preference. Do wash hands frequently.
  10. i sailed on the Enchantment in May. I will be sailing on her in a little more than an week for 28 days. If the ship was like the above observation, I wouldn't be sailing on her.

    La Spezia

    There is a manditory shuttle bus to the port exit at LaSpezia.
  12. If you had cancelled the beverage package before cancelling the cruise you would have gotten your money faster.
  13. I use www.squaremouth.com. Many policies are listed there. On an upcoming cruise, I bought a policy to cover major medical issues but not the entire cost of the cruise. Can afford to lose the cost of the cruise but not a major medical bill outside on the USA.
  14. The Emerald Princess sailed last night from Red Hook, Bklyn but stayed north of the Verrazano Bridge until this morning. They are skipping Newport and heading to Boston.
