dides,

Vinnie and Tena here. We missed you for Love Songs trivia last night. We loved meeting you and playing a few games with you.  I have also enjoyed your thorough review of the Sun Princess. Enjoy your get togethers tomorrow.  I look forward to reading your final thoughts.

Safe travels, continue cruising, and I’m sure we shall meet again!

You said it perfectly and wrote exactly how we feel regarding elite. Thank you for your port!

We like to stay at the Holiday Inn Express on 17th. They have new and renovated rooms.  It is very close to Publix and Total Wine.  And we love walking to the port for our cruise. If you are on Princess, it is less than a 10 minute walk. Nice not to be in the herd of people waiting for shuttles.

Krogers offers gas points on the purchase of gift certificates for Carnival, Princess, and HAL. As well as Delta and Southwest Airlines.  I recommend stocking up when they have a 4x promotion.

This is absolutely what we do. Save a dollar a gallon for gas every month for both our vehicles.  

Wow.  Not complaining just noting, the premier package costs more per day than each of our 6 upcoming cruises.

EZ Air told me that changing any flights (other than an airline flight change) requires cancelling and rebooking.  
 

You can only book one way fares if you are doing a back to back.  You are able to book a one way fare coming or going).

This is exactly told me last week when I was trying to do the same thing. 

Thanks all. This is the info I was looking for!

Our ship, Sun Princess,is arriving in Southampton on Sept 22 at 7 am. We spend the night there and depart Sept 23 at 6 pm. We are thinking of taking the train or National Express into London for the day on Sept 22.  We will have no luggage with us. How walkable is it from the port to either the train station or bus terminal?  We have used Natl Express in the past and were satisfied. Don’t have anything scheduled in London, as we’ve been there a few times.  Just want to do a little shopping and maybe see a matinee musical. 

Got a Travelzoo email today about the Westin Fort Lauderdale Beach with prices from $180 through January. 
 

This deal includes half price resort fees.

Out on deck 7 aft they usually put up deck chairs during the day. Stay off of the smoking side and this is a nice quiet location.

Also depending on the Captain, some ships change time at 12:00 noon on days requiring a time change.

Why don’t you book a back to back cruise?

My husband is always up early. Goes up to buffet to get coffee.  By the end of every cruise, he has made a new group of coffee friends. 

Dallas guy is correct. If I put in 3 people, a lot more cabins show up. I called TA and she was able to book a 3 person room for the two of us. 

We stay at the Holiday Inn Express on 17th and always walk to terminal two. It is a less than a10 min walk with sidewalks the whole way. 

Still my go to hotel.  They have renovated and added new rooms. Maybe we have always been lucky, but we’ve never had an issue.

We do our own laundry with free tokens from Guest Services. Then I send out hubby’s shirts to be ironed. I mark with starch and they always come back very nice. 

Don’t forget. Belgium invented the French Fry. For us, it’s a must do while there. 

Check out he PORT section on Cruise Critic. Also check out your roll call. Sometimes others cruisers already have private excursions booked. 

I also booked my 22 day Alaska cruise in June 2025 back in December

Will be sailing on the Vista April 20.  What venues are open for lunch on embarkation day?  And which one does everyone recommend?
 

Much Thanks

Sorry I didn’t clarify. We walk to Terminal 2 which is where most Princess ships are. 

Absolutely. It’s no more than a 10 min walk on sidewalks the whole way. 

I would definitely book sooner rather than later.  We’re also cruising at that time and booked Southwest as soon as the dates became available.
