  1. Wife and I will be sailing to Canada on the Volendam this May. Have recent cruisers on Volendam seen any Cooking Demos or Hands-On Classes offered in the Wajang Theatre & Culinary Arts Center? If so and you participated, when and how did you register and what was the cost? Will they be less likely on just a 7-Night cruise? Thanks
  2. Love your picture of Oberwesel. Wife and I stayed overnight in the top of the tower at Burghotel Auf Schönburg while on a land trip about 40 years ago!
  3. When I was last on Celebrity - 3 years ago - II Bacio in the Oceanview Cafe did not offer all of the premium coffees that were available at Al Bacio - probably only 4 or 5 of the most regularly ordered coffees along with some tea.
  4. 3- As long as you keep one of the original persons on your reservation you can change any other persons with no added cost 4- If you were to substitute someone else for your SIL, then she would have no insurance claim since her reservation was used. Thus whoever you substitute would need to reimburse her.
  5. The very reason we will no longer be taking mass market ocean lines. I was going to say, no more Nickle and Diming - but it's really 5 and 10 bucking.
  6. Since when is aluminum biodegradable? Recyclable, yes.
  7. In early November we will have a non-stop Amsterdam-Orlando code-shared Virgin Atlantic operated by Delta with no extra cost. Unfortunately, we will have 3 segments for Orlando-Budapest in October.
  8. So you're familiar with the culture but disagree with it - and thus go your own way rather than adopting the culture of a foreign land. Some Americans do the same when they visit other lands and are called "ugly Americans" - so I guess "ugly" must now be applied to you also - congratulations.
  9. This is all an excellent reminder of why one should always get travel insurance through a third party whose offers include coverage for financial default of the cruise line.
  10. After their pandemic-related financial problems, I'm sure they are currently more interested in firming up their core business than taking on a new business segment.
  11. Being verbally assured by a sales person is unfortunately generally not assuring. What did your rebooked invoice show?
  12. Could be a website problem, but Viking currently shows Marksburg Castle as an excursion for the the Rhine Getaway https://www.vikingrivercruises.com/cruise-destinations/europe/rhine-getaway/2025-basel-amsterdam/index.html#itineraryday/5
  13. On our upcoming Viking Budapest to Amsterdam cruise in late October, Marksburg Castle is an included afternoon excursion with a bus ride out of Koblenz.
  14. In the absence of short cruises, I suggest you consider one or more day trips on KD ferries - for example: https://www.k-d.com/de/schiffstouren/nostalgie-route Note: change to English language in upper right of website
