No they will go back to your account. Most airlines do not even charge a fee to redeposit

Book now. Better choice. No penalty if you cancel.

Thank you for your posts. What internet package do you have? Any chance you can do a screenshot of a speed test?

Looking forward to my August 10th on the Pursuit. When I go inline it seems there is absolutely nothing to do. Nothing to scan, or enter, no pictures to upload. . If you want a luggage tag, you can print a generic one. Am I missing something or is this the way it is now

As to where cruise ships dock, if I am not mistaken, don’t some ships dock close to town, but others dock very far outside of town.

Cruise was still great, Only good thing, all cabins were ready once we boarded. Check in was smooth. Just everyone had to sit and wait in area near the check in.

You were lucky. Last month, boarding the Onward at WTC we sat around waiting until 2:00 PM before boarding.

It was a Thursday, June 20th. We cleared immigration in Guernsey. Azamara had earlier buses, we wanted the latest one as our flight was at 3:00. I understand you are not picking on me, just that you like to be critical, Any amount of information, even incomplete can be helpful. The major point of my post was that you can possibly spend up to a half hour at Heathrow while the bus stops at other terminals, not how long it takes to get to Heathrow.

I assume same for Oceania, as Azamara. Our recent Azamara transfer left at 9 and arrived at 11. We actually arrived at Heathrow at 10:30, but had to stop at other terminals before going to our terminal.

In a major city, I would definitely use a local taxi. We recently disembarked in Southampton . The transfer was $105 pp It took about one hour, 45 minutes to Heathrow. Thought it was well worth it.

For some reason, Azamara does not quote a fee until they have your flight information.

Once you tell Azamara your flight a price will be added to the transfer. Better to wait and book on board.

On our recent onward cruise, I had both. Azamara non refundable OBC and refundable TA OBC, once on board and checked in with Guest Relations they had it all as non refundable. They had to send a message to home office about TA OBC being refundable. It was updated the next day. I Immediately took the money out before they changed their minds. On Oceania you need to wait till last day.

On, Onward right now. Same cab everyday, no change

Still debating if it is worth it. We are port intensive and ashore I have an ATT plan at $10 a day with a max of $100 for billing cycle.

Joined Onward yesterday. Boarding was somewhat delayed. Started at a little after !:00 PM. Ship is in great shape, crew is wonderful. Our OBC is not showing yet. Was told I need to wait 48 hours to see it. Be sure to bring your paperwork. internet is really slow. Hopefully will improve. Doe paying the $7.95 a day really make any difference?

If you are arriving to the areas where the bus departs what is the best way to get there. We are staying at the Hilton which is on Guideca right across from the Grand Canal. We don’t mind taking a private water taxi if that is the best way.

Not sure it matters about the spa terrace access. On our recent 21 day Regatta cruise, no one checked cards or cabin numbers when going.

Thank you for your posts. We board on Sunday. Do you know who is the captain then?

Our first cruise to FP was in January. We had perfect weather no rain. No way to 100% predict.

Thank you both

I know this is an old thread. Just wondering if there is any thing new on luggage tags. We have our boarding passes but no luggage tags.

Is ITA matrix free?

Was there any assigned boarding times? The email I received with my boarding pass the time seems generic. Also, does not seem anyway to do online if I wanted to.

Can a recent cruiser explain the current check in process and boarding procedure? Is it necessary to do anything on line before arriving at the port. also, is there a way to select an arrival time or does everyone now show up at the same time?
