The adventure begins. Sarah and I are sitting at the airport waiting for our flight to Vancouver where we will board the Explora Journey tomorrow for a 6 day cruise to Los Angeles. This will be our first time sailing a cruise line other than Royal and this will be the complete opposite of what we are used to. The Explora Journey is 64,000 Tonnes. 900 passengers and 700 crew, all suites, everything included. This is MSC's new high end line that for an easy comparison would be like Silversea is to Royal. We only have two stops, Astoria and San Francisco. Astoria we will just wander around and have lunch in town at a local fish and chip shop. In San Francisco we are docked from 9am to 11pm so I have Go Cars booked for 8 hours for us to see some sights and then an evening behind the scenes tour of Alcatraz. I'll post pictures and updates along the way. The only concern right now is that yesterday, Westjet issued a 72 hour lockout notice to the mechanics union so that could impact our flight home. The other thing I was not prepared for was the dress code on board. Resort casual for the day and resort elegant for the evening. A quick shopping trip and visit to the dry cleaners was required this week. So much for travelling with a carry on only. Tonight's hotel in Vancouver is done on the cheap with us staying at the Days inn by the Airport however an unexpected bonus is Vancouvers summer food festival is open and across the street so that will be dinner tonight.

You are fine, and yes. -
I have never had one that has been repriced at the current rate. It is repriced at the exact same rate as the double booked at except the entire fare is now shown for guest 1. The price (other than the lower taxes) has always remained the same
