We are scheduled for the Grand European in March, Amsterdam to Budapest. I don't think so but we're holding out hope - my husband is. I don't think so.

I see Viking added flightseeing over Passau for 45 minutes. We were booked for a trip to Scharding. Hoping someone can throw in their opinion!!

Thank you!

If I have air through Viking and after the cruise my flight leaves 6am (from Budapest), will they still transport me to the airport even though it's very early? Thanks!!

Yes, I did.

Thanks, Hank! Cruise line refunded pretty fast, actually. The hotel in Venice will not issue a refund. I booked this pre-Covid. Thank you thank you!! I'll try Chris Elliott.

We had a few cruises cancel and in the beginning of the pandemic we were getting refunded the money we paid for insurance. I booked my cruise before the pandemic, got my insurance days after booking, and now the cruise is cancelled and they won't reimburse me nor will they pay the hotel I can't cancel. So if we are not able to get any monies back at all, how are you purchasing cruise insurance these days?

Well, boo. Not surprisingly, my cruise has been cancelled but I have some excellent advice here for the future. I kept doing all of my research until the dreaded email. Thank you to everyone for their help.

Thank you! I love this wealth of information!

Thank you everyone!! Much appreciated. I'll book ahead of time.

Thank you!

Hi! How easy is it to hire a taxi from the Livorno port to Tuscan countryside for 3 or 4 hours? Any idea on prices? Thanks!!

Interesting. My 10/20 cruise did the same except all the higher categories that were open are now waitlisted. When I asked if they were cruising with fewer people I was told it's a ship with less people lol. Yes, it is but it's also a smaller ship. I guess I have to wait and see but I'm not getting my hopes up. This will be the third big cruise in a year and a half that is not going to happen for us. If you guys are smart, don't book a ship we're on haha.

Boo. One can have hope but it's dwindling. I just wish if it was going to be cancelled, they would do it already so I can move on to other options. thank you!!
