I have had a couple of experiences lately with the Wichita agents and they have been really good. Picked up on the first or second ring and solved the problem quickly and pleasantly.
I don’t begrudge the world cruisers their experience at all and I have enjoyed @aliaschief’s postings. But like @uktog, I have noticed that the segments do seem priced higher, so I haven’t booked anything on Onward during this world cruise.
On a port intensive cruise, that’s what I would do too. My upcoming cruise has lots and lots of sea days though, so I purchased a package that included WiFi.
@nordski, I see that you switched your booking to the 8/30/25 itinerary. That looks good too. We are checking with some possible traveling companions to see if it might work for them. The dates would actually be better for us. Stay tuned!
