Bill Leiber Posted April 28, 2012 #1 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hello to Quest's March 26, 2012 Guests - I'm pleased to announce the "good news" that Larry Pimentel has re-scheduled the same 17-night itinerary to operate in 2014! The Azamara Journey will sail from Hong Kong to Singapore, on March 17, 2014. At this time our 2014 itinerary deployments are under development and unavailable for booking, but you can count on its operation. Further, to all of you on were guests on the cancelled March 26, 2012 Azamara Quest voyage some international markets offered a two-year expiration while the US/Canada markets set a one-year expiration. This difference will not be a problem to those in possession of a one-year - exceptions will be honored as needed. That means that all of you can redeem it on the March 17, 2014 Azamara Journey and truly enjoy a reunion experience. Thanks for your patience and best regards, Bill Leiber _____________________ Chief Blogging Officer* Azamara Club Cruises (*CBO is an authorized and compensated representative of ACC) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do hope that many of the people we did meet from CC and otherwise will be on board too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardiffmatch Posted April 28, 2012 #5 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Great news - and a nice touch to extend our FCCs to cover this trip. I suspect that mine will have "burned a hole in my pocket" long before 2014, but that leaves me two years to save up!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for your patience and best regards, Bill Leiber _____________________ Chief Blogging Officer* Azamara Club Cruises (*CBO is an authorized and compensated representative of ACC) This is great news as I was already asking about this itinerary before the Quest cruise was canceled due to the fire. We hope to be on this cruise in 2014. We always thought it was the best itinerary this year (we spent part of our honeymoon in Bali, but unfortunately never went to Komodo Island), but had already booked ms Veendam in South America when the itinerary came out. Maybe Larry Pimentel wil be onboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richandi Posted April 28, 2012 #7 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Bill, Please thank Larry and all those who participated in this decision. We will definitely repeat along with lots of others. I guess it's too early for a new thread. Vera and Ian, Thom and Greg, we'll be in touch. Rich and Andi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MightyQuinn Posted April 28, 2012 #8 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Bill, what great news! I know many of us who were on the cancelled Quest voyage were really hoping to see it offered again. Some of our past Roll Call folks are already in for a reunion. I'm also in contact with several fellow passengers (not members of CC) who expressed interest, so I'll pass along the good news. Thanks to Larry Pimentel and his itinerary planners for making it happen. What an exciting St. Paddy's Day it will be in 2014 as we board Journey on this unbeatable itinerary.

liales2 Posted May 7, 2012 #15 Share Posted May 7, 2012 i WONDER if Bill can explain us if all the problems from the CHANGES ON THE JOURNEYS 9TH AUGUST ITINERARY, HAVE been solved so far. We have booked this trip specially to go to Bilbao, and now it seems we can be there ONLY A COUPLE OF HOURS.... also we are looking for two people to share a private van from Heathrow to Southampton, on the morning of the 8th August, with a stop at Stonedge. we are two well traveled South American Seniors, but fluent in English (hope so....) best regards Lila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squeakybigear Posted May 9, 2012 #16 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Just Booked Hong Kong to Singapore on Journey for Feb 3, 2014. Why was March 26th voyage cancelled? Need help booking shore excursions. Thanks. Judy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted May 9, 2012 #17 Share Posted May 9, 2012 Just Booked Hong Kong to Singapore on Journey for Feb 3, 2014. Why was March 26th voyage cancelled?Need help booking shore excursions. Thanks. Judy Hi Judy, I think you mean Feb 3, 2013, as 2014 sailings are not available yet. The March 26th Quest sailing was cancelled, due to an engine room fire. Thankfully, the fire was extinguished immediately, and the Guests were fine. Quest has returned to service. As for shore excursions, it's too soon to book anything. I'd check with your Travel Agent or Azamara, and ask them when they will be available for booking. I believe it's generally 4-6 months before the sailing date. If you have additional questions, feel free to ask. I hope this helps. Have a wonderful Cruise ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
