Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We have booked an accessible mini-suite on the Regal for November because my wife had a stroke. She is able to walk just fine, but cannot bend her leg in order to get into a bathtub/shower combo. We found out that our MA mini stateroom was more expensive than a standard mini MB, but weren't charged the additional, because there are no MB staterooms that are accessible.
  2. We stayed at the Eurostar Gran Marina at the WTC twice. 1st time was for our Royal Caribbean cruise that departed from Adossat. 2nd time was on Silversea that departed from the WTC South Terminal. That was really nice to be able to walk from our hotel room directly to the terminal. Also, there is a port shuttle to take you to Arossat from the WTC. Here is a map of the port https://www.barcelona-tourist-guide.com/en/transport/cruise-port/map-of-barcelona-port.html
  3. This cruise was on HAL. Not sure why they didn't in this case.
  4. And those 60 minutes before the ship sails is FIRM. Years ago people heading to FLL via DFW the day before our cruise got stranded due to a tornado touchdown. Our flight the day of the cruise was delayed taking off and we nearly missed our cruise. We ran and caught a cab and made it just before the cutoff. Those that were on our flight that had bus transfers did not.
  5. There was only one small 1200 ton ship scheduled to call on Kotor on the 11th, so overcrowding doesn't appear to be the issue. Mistakes can happen. Shoot, we even had one cruise with Silversea that had an itinerary change that we weren't notified about until we boarded the ship. Apparently, someone had miscalculated the distance between ports and some had to be dropped and others added to keep the ship on schedule. That was interesting. I would have hated to be working at the excursion desk onboard. Maybe the port made the decision and just informed Princess or there was some technical reason that Princess had to call it off.
  6. Sorry, I missed that one. I hope everyone that is booked on the Sun makes it to Kotor. It is a gorgeous port.
  7. I think a murder mystery on a cruise would be fun. Years ago my wife and I wrote and directed a couple of mysteries for a small group of friends where each had a part to play. One was Murder on the Mauritania and the other was Hijinx in the Hindenburg. We gave the actors crazy names like Senator Phillip Buster and textiles heiress Polly Esther. It was a blast.
  8. I think High Seas Heist is only available on ships sailing the Red Sea or off the coast of Somalia. 🤪
  9. According to the Kotor port schedule, the Sun was to be in Kotor on the 11th, again on May 6th, June 17, July 29, August 19, September 9th. The Sun Princess at 175,000 tons is by far the largest ship on the port schedule. http://www.portofkotor.co.me/ I suspect, as previous posters have pointed out, is the ship is too large to navigate the channel. Celebrity Edge is slightly shorter and slightly narrower than the Sun, and is 140,000 tons and only calls on Bar, not Kotor for every Montenegro stop this season.
  10. We actually docked in Kotor a few years ago when on the Azamara Quest and remember one of the Princess ships anchored. This is a beautiful port and one of our most memorable cruises. It would be a shame to miss it.
  11. Really? A $12 charge if you want eggs and bacon in the morning. Do they charge for room service every time you order something throughout the day? That's insane!
