    we stayed there post cruise and thought it a very nice resort. Food was good but drinks were awful and overpriced.
  2. laurieb
    We've been to the islands in January/February four times; yes you do get showers most days, but we had more sun than rain. Going again this coming January. It's too bad you canceled your cruise.
  3. laurieb
    It is very doable, just make sure you plan to ferry back with plenty of time left before your ship sails. You might check out the resorts on Tahiti too, beaches and pools are beautiful. Make sure you use lots of sunscreen! The sun is brutal there

    We've done the Carcossonne tour, though several years ago. I felt it was well worth the money, but you are correct it is basically transportation. I recall that we did get a box lunch on the tour, to eat where we chose.
  5. laurieb
    I imagine it has more to do with the tour operators than Azamara.

    OOh I hope she's there for awhile! we're on Onward in January and would love to see her again. Sure has been lots of moving around among officers recently.
  7. laurieb
    you are correct, none of the purchased amenities roll over
  8. laurieb
    It might be good to have your TA look into it. We had cruises in May that had been booked before the change, and in order to get our b2b credit on each they had to be rolled into one
  9. laurieb
    Does anyone know where Milena is now??
  10. laurieb
    Were the cruises recently booked? Could be your TA didn't add the third cruise as part of the B2B; that would make it a different number

    We have an Azamazing evening onshore in Honolulu for the trans Pacific cruise in January; really looking forward to it!

    Iwan is onboard Pursuit now so F & B will be top notch!
  13. laurieb
    Give it some time, change just happened
  14. laurieb
    The offer I received says it's for cruises departing July 1st 2025 and beyond.
  15. laurieb
    I imagine it's much like the airlines; once a certain percentage is sold the prices increase
  16. laurieb
    are things different there? Do TA's not have access to online bookings? Here, TA's can forward the confirmations from the online booking engine; my TA does very quickly
  17. laurieb
    Your TA is incorrect, my TA will confirm that there is very easy access as there has always been; if he/she is having issues, they need to reach out to their BDM
  18. laurieb
    Huh. I can truthfully say that the only issue I've had with onshore is the way that B2B's are being handled. I think that the onshore experience has improved drastically; yes, I've been booking and sailing every year since 2015, before and after the break from RCCL. I don't believe they deserve the bashing they continue to get.
  19. laurieb
    That's what we're hoping! We leave Toulon at 5pm so lots of time to get where we can see 100%
  20. laurieb
    Totally agree with you, it is harsh
  21. laurieb
    which ship and date? I'm finding all V categories on all ships and most dates; some dates are showing just V1, so maybe they're still being loaded
  22. laurieb
    I had no issues booking our stateroom on the Onward earlier
  23. laurieb
    I booked our stateroom for the Onward eclipse cruise! I'm afraid it won't be in the path od the total eclipse though, showing us at sea on the 12th, heading towards Barcelona
  24. laurieb
    You sure the experience more package wasn't already included the last time you did it? They've not allowed friends to do the upgrade if they had purchased the lesser package themselves
  25. laurieb
    yes, for the drink package I believe we paid about 8.00 pppd; I honestly don't remember if we got our loyalty discount or not You'll need to do the upgrade once you get onboard; not possible to do online beforehand if you just want to upgrade the drink package. Why would you want to wait and miss out on the good stuff 😉
