I love crepes but unfortunately these are not true crepes. These are more like pancakes.

One of the key benefits to booking on board is that you can used the OBC for the cruise you are already on or the one you are booking. Choice is yours.

What if you chose to take the OBC for a future cruise and used it on the cruise that you are on now. What would happen if later you decided to later on, cancel that future cruise.

Could someone post a link to see these itineraries. The cruisingpower link is not working today. Thanks I'd really appreciate it.:)

I am having the same problem. The link doesn't work for me. Do you have any other suggestions?:(

What is the Loyalty discount? :confused:

I am with you. What is the loyalty discount:confused::confused:

Some please tell me what an Aspen Coffee is please :confused:

 

I hopefully will get to try one in two weeks time :D

Me, too??

Hi Fellow Cruisers and Nexus Card Holders,

 

Could you all please stop mentioning how great the Nexus card is and how much it facilitates your travels to the states. I'm already noticing longer lines at the Nexus lanes at the border.

 

Can we just keep this our little secret??

 

Much appreciated,

HTP

:cool:

You are so right! I have noticed this too. So, yes, let's keep under wraps. Shh.

"What may be problematic is whether any of your ports of call are familiar with it, or recognize it. Also, you cannot board a Canadian plane without a passport. So, if you plan on flying from Ottawa to the US, or getting off at every port of call, a passport is s good backup."

I use my Nexus card whenever I fly anywhere in USA and use it whenever I come back to Canada from anywhere. Very useful to have and inexpensive.

I believe that has always been the policy, free beverage package perks are not offered for TAs. Probably too much opportunity to drink, with all those sea days.

Last November, they offered the 123GO on our TA on the Reflection. We do many TAs at that was the first and perhaps the last that it was offered.

We used to book C1 just for the balcony size. But now we book 1A since the Concierge benefits have grown old for us. As you can see, there are many different points of view

It's La Capitale and I got it through Securiglobe 1-888-211-4444

Thanks:) I'm going to check into it!

Our credit card provides cancellation insurance. There are a few credit cards that do.

 

They also provide travel health insurance' date=' but only until age 65.

 

Now we get travel health on a yearly basis. I think we used Universal last year. This year we are using a Quebec company. If anyone is really interested, I can look for the names.

 

I chose 24 day maximums because we don't travel for longer than that at any given time.[/quote']

 

Hi:)

I am very interested to know the name of the Quebec company that you are using.

I understand why the alcohol package is not offered to TA's. They would never make money on that. However, I don't understand why they can't offer free gratuities or OBC. Anyone??:cool:

It really depends on the ship. Some kitchens turn out better food than others.

I agree with most of what you said, and thank you for the anniversary wishes, and yes - it is a milestone.

What I don't agree with, is that I wanted something special, I should pay for it.

Nothing "special" was offered.

We didn't ask if they did anything, the TA offered the recognition.

Sorry, I have to disagree - they did drop the ball.

If it is not a guarantee, why do the TA's ask/offer ?

Life is too short, and eventually I will get past it - someday...

Hi:)

I really think you should get back to your TA and relate this unpleasant experience.

I took my first Celebrity Cruise in 2001 and many more since. The one thing that I want to say is that I am glad that I didn't know about this site before I cruised. Had I come on this site and read all the negativity, it would have colored my whole cruise, which I enjoyed thoroughly and have so ever since.

My favorite cruise is a Transatlantic one. But sadly, there are no specials to entice one to book one. The new 1,2,3 Go offers are not applicable to TAs. Now, I understand why the beverage package is not offered...Too many sea days to take advantage of such a package. But, why can't they offer the other 2...paid gratuities or an onboard credit

Did anyone else get an email like this and have you taken advantage of it?

" I'm inviting you to take advantage of an offer on our 2015 vacations. When you book by May 31, 2014, you can receive up to $400* to spend on board. And, you can combine this offer with another future offer of your choice for an even greater value. So, now is the perfect time to plan your 2015 vacation"

From a New York paper:

"Airline passengers might notice something missing in their vodka tonics or diet cokes: the lime. A recent shortage and spike in the price has caused some airlines-for now-to stop offering the fruit in their beverage service..."

I have been married 32 years and have always had my maiden name on my passport...never my married name. Your maiden name is more legal than your married name.

You will not have a problem.:)

I am confused. In the deck plans it seems that the first angled hump balcony cabin is the 8230. But I also found another plan (on another site) where the 8232 is the first one with a larger balcony. Can someone tell me which one it is? Thank you so much!

They are usually the first and third balconies on the hump. So no, #8232 is not larger. In the area that you're looking at, it would be #8230 and #8226. Similarly, on the other slant hump cabins. Hope that helps.

I have always found that it is best to carry a copy. Many hotels in Europe keep your passports until you check out. If not keep it in a safe.

Is it possible to use Canadian cash in the casino, and if so is there any advantage?

No.

any more than 8 you will not be able to talk to people at the end unless

you are smack dab in the middle/ go for nor more than 8

As a couple we loved a table of ten. We got to talk and have conversations with everyone. The trick is to not have sit in the same seats every night. That way you are never stuck in the middle every night.

You can't compare travel insurance with home owners or auto. With auto or home owners, you have a liability issue to worry about. If an outsider gets injured, they could sue you for everything you have. As a traveler, you are the only issue in play. It could be expensive but not a life changing event, at least not for me.

I do have home owners and auto insurance but not travelers. I'm willing to roll the dice.

Well, good for you that you've never had a medical issue! I hope that you go through life without any medical life changing event.
