duct tape Posted July 19, 2014 #2 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Which one would that be? I got the invite today to the Bocelli cruise but we are already booked on something else. Poor planning on SSs part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbylane Posted July 19, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted July 19, 2014 I know, we were too, but can not over look this event, our TA cancelled and booked us this cruise. It should be really great, all the long time we were on 31 oct Cloud cruise, now on 20 year cruise. should be very festive. s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oregon50 Posted July 19, 2014 #4 Share Posted July 19, 2014 1) It is very short notice. 2) $1800/per day for silver suite. Wait list for higher categories. 3) Sprit Enjoy! Have a feeling this will not sell as quickly as Crystal's Northwest Passage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herman The Cat Posted July 19, 2014 #6 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Which one is the Bocelli cruise?? October 31, 2014, Rome to Barcelona on the Spirit. Just got the announcement yesterday. Bocelli has a home on the Tuscan coast, so I do wonder if his performance will just be on the overnight in Livorno...I would be surprised if he was on the entire cruise like some other performers.

duct tape Posted July 19, 2014 #7 Share Posted July 19, 2014 We will be on the Shadow. Would be fun to catch up with all the frequent floaters! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinPashmina Posted July 19, 2014 #8 Share Posted July 19, 2014 We jumped on it! We dock in Athens (after a b2b starting in Barcelona on October 12th) now looking for flights to Rome on the 31st to catch the Spirit that same day.. I'm operating on the premise that doing something crazy like this is good for you. With three in a row, this will be our longest cruise at 28 days...hmmm. I don't think my DH has figured that out yet. Wish all the sailors with so many familiar handles were coming too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emtbsam Posted July 19, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 19, 2014 We were already booked on it and the following TA to Fort Lauderdale so we didn't receive the invitation. I do hope that we will be "invited" to the concert as they say it is a limited invitation. They had already offered a cabin category upgrade in Veranda on this voyage, so I have a feeling it was not selling well. The itinerary is perfect for us and we do enjoy the Spirit for the TA.

duct tape Posted July 19, 2014 #10 Share Posted July 19, 2014 You are all making me second guess our plans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruisinPashmina Posted July 19, 2014 #11 Share Posted July 19, 2014 Our TA reserved concert tickets for us when he booked yesterday. I sure would ask your TA to do the same. We were told that the offer has stirred up A LOT of interest. There will be only one concert held on the overnight in Florence. If you've been on the Spirit you know how ridiculously small the theater is. It would be terrible to lose out on this experience! I see that you've signed up for the Mingle. We'll look forward to meeting you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare WesW Posted July 19, 2014 #12 Share Posted July 19, 2014 told Ida about this special venetian invite--she immediately said we're going...alas, we have family commitments in Texas the first weekend in November so we can't book. Duct tape hope you can go--if so pls give warm regards and a hug to Angelo and Fernando for Ida. Sent from my iPad mini using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duct tape Posted July 20, 2014 #13 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Sorry, Wes, we are on the Shadow then. Too bad SS took so long to post their intentions. It could have been terrific! Imagine all those frequent floaters on 1 ship! Venetian Society Reunion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougburns Posted July 20, 2014 #14 Share Posted July 20, 2014 E-mailed Capt Corsaro. He will only be aboard Spirit for a few days( Rome-Barcelona ) and then back to Whisper. He will do the world cruise aboard Whisper. All of the suites from Owners thru Silver are waitlisted for the Rome-Barcelona cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacko Posted July 20, 2014 #15 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Had we had more notice we would have booked as we were on the Sweet 16. Instead, we'll be on the Discoverer booked ages ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare RachelG Posted July 21, 2014 #17 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Received the invite, but no possibility with this short of notice. We are on explorer right before that, and I do have to work to pay the bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suir maid Posted July 21, 2014 #18 Share Posted July 21, 2014 We also received the invitation for this Bocelli Cruise, what a shame we will have to miss this rare performance by such a wonderful Artiste. We had already booked a trip to India and will only return on Nov.1st. To all who have booked this Cruise we wish you great enjoyment and safe travels.

Rare Silver Spectre Posted July 21, 2014 #19 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Just wondering what the criteria for receiving the invitation were. Obviously 350+ VS days do not cut the mustard here in the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
57 varieties Posted July 21, 2014 #20 Share Posted July 21, 2014 We have 150 plus days and live in UK and received it. We are already booked on S Galapagos at the time. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good afternoon, I have almost 200 days and didn't receive the email regarding this exciting voyage. How does one get on the list to receive information on such a marvellous opportunity? If you hear, please let us know. Thanks, ScottToronto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
