Ever the optimist, I'm booked again. Volendam, a ship I've never cruised on, twice. April 2, 22 Caribbean , and August 14, 22 River cruise. Hoping things will have stabilized by then.

You can start a roll call on this site as you can see others have done. You can take a private car or a train to the port. I took the train without problem. The only drawback is the distance from the train to the port. I worked up a sweat hauling my bag to the entry point. Next time I will grab a taxi from train to embarcation.

Lucked out, only $21 to pay off cruise. Pretty confident that we will cruise next November.

Black Friday sale. Check with you agent; could be eligible for a price drop or upgrade.

Stan, try googling "costa neoromantica deck plan" should come up with a couple of results. Good Luck.

Also on April 18th Zuiderdam Transatlantic; no transfer. Spain has said will close down until May. Too risky for the April transatlantic. 5 cruises cancelled this year. Played it safe and booked 11 day caribbean April 22. Call it bank of HAL. Can't begin to figure out my $$ situation!

Stan, check out previous costa site. Info and pics are there.

Aaaarrrg!

Booked Zuiderdam Transatlantic April 18th. No message from HAL. Guess I'll call tomorrow.

Talked to my FIX. Because I used credit I couldn't get the 10%. Taking the money from my flight ease I was able to pay enough balance to get a $250 extra credit.

Booked FLL April 18th to Spain. Go or no go, who knows. Four cancelled cruises already. Patience is getting thin. Still hoping.

Talked to my agent yesterday. He says that I've been upgraded. To move to a window room, over $300 (same footage). Balcony over $2000. Will keep what I have for the time being . He was able to give me my room number, looks like a decent location.

Hopeful. Don't know where they'll put me, as long as it's not a closet. Guess I better phone my agent.

Sorry Stan, thought this had previously been posted. November 13th 2021, 14 day.

Thanks gnome, it worked!
