The more specific your comments, the more chance of getting a proper response. You are 100% incorrect.

An honest mistake is one thing but handling an issue by blaming the guest and then the cabin steward and putting the onus on me to correct the issue is NOT the way to proceed.

Crowded, wall to wall people.

We were charged for drinks that were included in our Soda package (YES, cans ARE included) and a quick visit to Guest Services quickly resolved that issue. We were then charged $178 for shore excursions which we didn’t book. Employee at Shore Excursion desk INSISTED I made the reservations the previous evening using my Medallion. She said she couldn’t refund the charge until I presented her with the physical tour tickets. Since I didn’t make the reservations how could I possibly return the tickets. She then told ME to go see my cabin steward to find out where they were. I told her SHE should follow up since I had nothing to do with the entire fiasco. The charge was eventually reversed but even the cabin steward was annoyed at being accused of withholding the tickets. I check every day now as someone, somewhere is screwing up the charges.

The Mothers Day afternoon tea on Sky was lovely and todays sea day afternoon tea was just as nice. Ship has 3800 passengers and, although the MDR tea was well attended, the buffet afternoon tea is MOBBED! Go for the relaxing MDR afternoon tea.

Had it tonight on Sky. Dried out, not worth the calories.

Sorry, I thought you were a master of ALL knowledge! 😂😂😂😂Thanks for responding.

@hallasmDue to weather conditions we are now heading to Seyðisfjörður. No time for research so relying on your kindness to advise if this is an early morning on deck sail in as it was in Skjolden and Olden. Also, any suggestions for a DYI day? Thanks so much. Your information so far has been invaluable. Although the sail in to Skjolden and Olden was in drizzle, fog it was still dramatic.

@EglesbrechI assume from all your posting that the internet has improved.

@Miss G Thanks for checking in via @Fouremco. I too looked everywhere for the thread which has disappeared for no reason I can think of. I’m happy to report a technical guy from Telus fixed my issue which he said had nothing to do with the esim but I still think I made a wrong selection during the installation. They claim to have excellent customer service but I have had NO response from Airalo aside from an acknowledgement and ticket number so am hoping the esim works when we arrive in Europe! Thanks again.

Just announced passport renewals can be done online starting this fall.

I’m with you! Lukewarm food would be sent back. Fortunately we don’t drink alcohol and don’t go to any of the bars/entertainment venues so, hopefully, we won’t be impacted too badly with crowds. Sounds like there HAS been improvement in other areas so hope you are enjoying yourself. Thanks so much for taking the time to inform us. 👏🏻

@Eglesbrech What a disappointing start but thanks for reporting. Hope there is a definite improvement sooner rather than later!

I get frozen virgin pina coladas and strawberry daiquiris.

This is what I researched for our September trip. The blue cruise bus departs from the parking lot in front of each of the ports 4 terminals and drops you near the Columbus Monument. €4.50 round trip, cash only.

We bought it for our May Sky cruise but will not purchase it for our September Mediterranean cruise. Way too expensive!

Ignore my question, I see your cruise is 2024.

Just curious, which ship and date?

If you're going on the Grand Princess the buffet does not compare to the MDR and we found it VERY cold (May) with servers and guests wearing coats.

Since when did offering a legitimate suggestion become "Uppity" - WOW!

On the Canadian cruiser forum there is an informative thread on eSIM's.

I see you have posted the same question on various ports. Check TripAdvisor.

Guess I misunderstood all the posts I quoted. The cruises I referenced were both 14 day voyages.

When we booked B2B Alaska cruises we were given one credit for each segment but when we booked a 14 day Norweigan Fjiords and 14 day Mediterranean we were given only 1 credit. When I questioned it I was told if it was booked as a 14 day then only 1 credit. Go figure!

That may NOT be their issue. I have read on the boards that, depending on how busy the ports/hotel is, there can be difficulty getting a taxi for the short distance.
