We were on the Rotterdam last January with the Have it all promotion. On several, and by that I mean SEVERAL' occasions we ordered OJ for breakfast in the MDR only to find out later in the day on our in stateroom screen folio on the TV that we had been charged the $6 plus 18%. On each occasion, a trip to guest services would prove successful in removing the charge, citing a computer glitch and that it was being addressed. Possibly a way around this problem is to order a "virgin" mimosa which would be within the drink package pricing, but have your waiter leave out the prosecco!!!!!

Thank you all for the valuable input to our question. Some of you provided links and places to find in depth info. We appreciate each and every one of them and are very grateful for you to take the time to reply. Best wishes to you all!!!!!!

Does anyone have any experience and\or recommendations that you are willing to share about self exploring in and about the following ports of call. 1. Corfu, Greece. 2. Cephalonia, Greece. 3. Sarande, Albania,4. Cartagena, Spain 5. Malaga,Spain. 6. Seville, Spain. Is it possible and safe to explore any of these ports on our own or is cruise ship shore excursions the preferred way to go??

Is there an area on the Rotterdam where cruisers can do some ironing once on board???

Does anyone know where I can find out if large groups have booked on future cruises. We were on one where a huge group dominated the dining rooms and main shows on the center stage. I would love to avoid this happening on future bookings/

I agree all the way. I am a huge fan of the aft view. It seems to me that it provides more privacy and is much more quiet because the wind is less of a factor while sailing. Thank you so much for your insight and input. Very grateful for your thoughts/

I appreciate your input and knowledge sharing. Thank you so much!!!

Can anyone shed light on the differences between a vista suite vs an aft balcony considering the fact that they are located next door to each other and there does not appear to be a significant size difference? The cost difference is so substantial, there must be some upgrades.
