Sarnia 432

I have seen couples dancing in the Wheelhouse Bar when I have been walking past.

Definitely the best tour we did. Not just glaciers, lots of wildlife

Just been to all those ports (except Dublin) on the Island Princess. Needed a negative COVID test to board, no further testing required before these ports.

It is very clear on the app which items are free and which carry a charge

only liquid soap in our cabin no pub lunch yet…….

A good description, but not needed, you have to have masks on around the food, once seated at a table the masks can come off.

Also on this cruise, last night the show was Encore. We didn’t go, so can’t comment. I agree with @We_like_to_cruise so far, top notch service all round. We are having a blast!

It takes a bit for the charges to catch up. We traded on embarking, we were charged for coffee that day, coffee card charged to the account the next day, and coffee came without charges. Refund of coffee card charge and coffees from day one, didn’t occur until day 3 of the cruise.

@g8way2go Spend them quickly - here is the Bank of England link https://www.bankofengland.co.uk/banknotes/exchanging-old-banknotes Or you could try to exchange at a post office

Totally agree, we were on her in May and loved the ship and especially the crew

One of the best tours we have ever taken,

There were sufficient towels, we didn’t ask for more, so I think we already had the full compliment of towels for 2 when we boarded.

We had 2 separate booking when we sailed on the Discovery. Both insides, on different decks. We just asked onboard that we each be allowed access to both cabins. It was done immediately with no questions asked. we only put our stuff in one cabin, and had no issue with the cabin steward. We did, out of courtesy, let the other steward know we would not be using the cabin, but checked in when the immigration and disembarkation documents were delivered. we saved a little, but more importantly for us, got 2 cruise credits each, one step closer to elite!

I have definitely seen floatation jackets out by the pool on a recent sailing. It would have been the Discovery or the Grand.

@CruisinNewb we have booked the Moxy later this month. How are you finding it? Is there anywhere nearby for breakfast?

This is the first release since becoming elite. When I look at the sailings (logged in or logged out), I do not see the prices, nor have the ability to book online. Am I doing something wrong?

Viking are over 18 only

What day does booking open for elites?

I use cruisetimetable.com You can search by cruise ship, ports visited etc. Here is the page for the Viking Mars. Click on any date to see the itinerary and use the forward and back buttons at the bottom to move through the different sailings https://www.cruisetimetables.com/cruise-ship-viking-mars.html

We used Twitter to contact Princess and the issue was resolved within 3 hrs

@MissP22 we had shore excursion credit showing pre-cruise. When we boarded there was a note in our cabin telling us one of our excursions was cancelled - this was where the credit came from. We had to scramble to re-book an alternative as many tours were sold out by then

done through our travel agent

Mine shows all 4 booked cruises.

We used left over non-refundable OBC to buy clips on board
