  1. And formerly included excursions can become extra charge excursions, and you may or may not be grandfathered.
  2. I believe that is London time (or maybe GMT). It is definitely not Eastern time.
  3. The reason they say A4 is that they want the bar code to be full size on a printout. You will also frequently find it when you print out things like train tickets. The difference between A4 and letter size as you noted is miniscule. They don't want you to print on smaller paper because the bar codes get blurry. Note that A4 is an ISO standard size, so we North Americans are the outliers.
  4. No, but I would assume so. The kitchen would be even smaller on them. (As an aside, I have been on 2 bike and barge trips - different from a barge cruise - and on one we had a small buffet every night with a couple of choices, on the other you were served a prepared plate.)
  5. North America uses letter size (and legal size). Letter is 8½ inches by 11 inches. A4 is a metric measure. Even we Canadians who have otherwise gone metric stick to these sizes.
  6. One other drawback for some on CroisiEurope is that there is (technically) no choice at dinner. The meal is announced, and if you can't eat it for any reason you have to let them know in advance. For me that makes it a non-starter.
  7. Aquarium class is the bottom level of the ship, with fixed windows generally high on the wall.
  8. Are you talking about Budapest? @TikiIslandGirl is asking about Bucharest.
  9. I think that I missed that we were discussing specifically expedition cruising. There was a mention that all ships might supply it. I definitely understand that if you are in protected waters that the ingredients are important.
  10. I know that it says that, but I don't think it is true. I have done walking directions when offline. Try it out by downloading a map of your area, put your phone into airplane mode, and test it out.
  11. Isn't Gunwharf one of the ones based in Southampton? Wouldn't it be better to use a London based company from Heathrow to Southampton?
  12. I can't imagine using a brand/formulation that I didn't select myself to my own preferences. I will always bring my own.
  13. Were you in Norway or Denmark? The thread is Norway, but their currency is NOK. DKK is the currency of Denmark.
  14. You can transfer within 30 days, I believe.
