RW75

Joyride, so pleased you arrived safely and are enjoying your cruise. Great posts by the way. I am certain the laundry bags used to be bigger, although I often have false nostalgia memories. How many times has your husband hit his head in your suite? Definitely looks like he has to bend his neck to go through the doors.

Looking at the confirmation for my next cruise, it shows Flash OBC and More2Sea under the promotion applied section on the second page - which is the $1000 offer. Not sure what the More2Sea promotion is. Pro rata rate shown at USD625.00 as I’m solo. This showed as credit in GBP in the voyage planner with a further USD150.00 (I believe that is the figure, happy to be corrected) added for the refer and receive, total of GBP793.80 showing. Can’t quite figure out the amount, certainly not unhappy. There is no distinguishing between credits, just one figure. Nothing on the confirmation stating OBC is only available for excursion. For a transatlantic with one port spending more than around $200 on an excursion is impossible. If there was no revert to pure OBC there would be lots of very unhappy people.

When I booked last week, Barbie in reservations whom is always amazing did say there had been confirmation that the Shore Ex credit would convert to OBC onboard.

I have been travelling to Bermuda for thirty years and always hired a scooter. While I don’t necessarily disagree with the comments made here, I do feel Bermuda is the safest place in the world as a tourist to be hiring and riding a scooter. The caveat in my mind being that one really should have experience on the road and not just ride around in a circle to demonstrate proficiency. More so the case if two people are sharing a scooter. I would never recommend casual hire for anyone who has no experience riding a motorbike of some kind. The hire cost in recent years has increased hugely and I don’t see it is a cost effective way of seeing the sights when taking a day rental. Everywhere is accessible by public transport and hiring a taxi for a half or whole day is likely to cost less. Especially if there are two people or more. Private tours are usually less expensive than cruise line tours and not difficult to arrange.
