Thank you very much, same to you.

I think No. 10 is the most important point. : )

Would love to give AMA a try - but need to save money first.

I yesterday read an article on vegan travel in which they mention vegan river cruises in Europe.

One of the companies they cooperate with is Tauck, at least one of their new ships (Inspire) is used for a vegan cruise next year.

I m always up for new things and would probably give it a try if I could convince the wifey. Don't really need meat - but would miss proper cheese I guess. :p

A river cruise without any products made from animals? What is your opinion on this?

for your replies!!

I often travel to the US and usually stay in a hotel in New York.

So when making a reservation, I use the hotel's address - but my European credit card.

There was never a problem until some days ago when I received a message from the US ta.

Please be advised that the pricing provided to you at the time of booking is for United States and Canadian residents only.

 

If you cannot provide a valid U.S. or Canadian address directly to the cruise line, your reservation will be subject to an International Booking Fee

I simply changed the Dutch address (I used to check in online) back to the US address. I don't think at the time of boarding the staff members of the cruise line will cause trouble...

I occasionally book my cruises in the US, UK, Brazil... always depends on where my friends tell me about a good deal. We are living in a globalized world - so this should not be an issue I thought.

Has a cruise line ever denied boarding because a proof of residency could not be presented? Just curious as I received a weird email from my travel agent....
