Back working for me now! Deluxe drink package cancelled and rebooked saving £21!

Thank you for your review. Can I suggest booking mobility assistance for your mom on the way home. It is very easy to do on the BA website. She’ll be met by wheelchairs and guided through security as well - you’ll both be able to accompany her. They’ll even wheel her to the lounges and pick her (and you!) up. For Santorini I did that tour with my mum - for the hill bit she stayed in a cafe and we met her on the way down. Some of the tours also take you back to the new port to tender back to the ship rather than having to do the cable car - there are steps at the top and bottom for that. Might be worth checking out. For Rhodes I honestly just love wandering the Old Town myself - again my mum would come and sit in bars/cafes! have a fabulous cruise. Wendy

74 and 81 days out (on a B2B) I got an email for both cruises inviting me to bid. Wendy

Thank you so much for such an entertaining review. Safe travels! wendy

Apex and Beyond all separate in those suites so I can’t see Ascent will be any different - I hope not as I travel with my mum!

We were on the previous cruise and it was available every day - I sure hope it isn’t a cut back. Wenndy

Would her having the sofa bed downstairs be a possibility? There’s a Bath/shower downstairs. And what is also a possibility is there lift access to both levels. There’s an outer door upstairs too.

Norris and Carol; thank you so much for this! I always love reading your reports. We are on a Baltics sailing on Apex soon - we were lucky enough to be one of the first to sail on her in July 2021 so very excited to be back unmasked this time! Wendy

Love Aneka Rasa - have gone there a number of times! Enjoy your last few days. Wendy

That is a huge help - thank you! I may choose to spend the credit at the casino instead!!

Thank you for your wonderful review! Did your sister enjoy her 1000 flower treatment? Wendy

Thank you for your amazing review! The market in Helsinki has some amazing snacks - I’m sure a lot are fish based but I remember some cinnamon buns (Korvapuusti) we loved and blueberry pie (Mustikkapiirakka). Oh and salty licorice - salmaiakki. As for mocktails I’d challenge the barmen in Retreat Lounge and Eden to make you something. If the martini bar isn’t busy they could probably do some too. Wendy

I’m wondering if they are mixing it up with an infinite balcony. We love the Magic Carpet suites and I don’t see any difference in balcony experience.

I graduated with a BSc Zoology in 1991 from Aberdeen University! Robert Gordon’s is indeed a University now also. In fact I teach at Robert Gordon’s College - the 3-18 school the University developed from. Our pipe band played for the first major cruise line to dock at our new harbour, Aida, just a few weeks ago. Many of my friends went into the oil industry and safety thankfully is greatly improved. However anytime I hear more than one copter go past I worry.

Happy Birthday Iain! @Redkingwhich course/University were you doing/at? Piper Alpha was the eve of my 19th birthday - I live in Aberdeen and over the helicopter flight path and still remember the sound of the helicopters that night. We lost so many that night and my mum who was in insurance at the time remembers going to hand our cheques. Wendy
