Cool Cruiser

Cool Cruiser (2/15)

  1. We were on the Mediterranean Odyssey last August. Fantastic cruise! We did the included tours in most ports -all were excellent especially Split and Dubrovnik. The optional excursions we did were also excellent-Murano in Venice, full day to Pisa and Florence, and Pompeii.
  2. I'm pretty sure they have services for the Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. They do have Shabbas services during the year. I can't speak for RCCL but my cousin who is a rabbi has been the rabbi on board for Celebrity.
  3. Thanks everyone for your replies and confirmation that I'm not unreasonable to request something in writing. If i don't receive the email they said they would send in the next day or so, I'll call again.
  4. They didn't give me a cancellation number but said they would email something in 24-48 hours. Maybe it is something like this.
  5. Good idea to call them again. It seems that a cancellation number is reasonable to request
  6. We were scheduled to go on the December 4, 2022 Wonder of the Seas but on December 1, 2022 I canceled because my father was dying (he died the next day) It took awhile of back and forth on the phone on December 1 with the agent but finally he said I was canceled. I asked to have an email sent to me confirming the the cancelation so I can submit it to my insurance for reimbursement. He said he sent me an updated booking invoice which I didn't have a chance to actually look at until this weekend given all that went on with my father dying and planning his funeral. The invoice sent to me on December 1 is just a copy of my booking invoice from June. It doesn't show a cancelation. So, I called RCCL today and they are telling me they don't send a cancelation invoice-all they can send is my September invoice but that shows what I booked, not that I canceled. I certainly can't be the first person to cancel a cruise due to a death in the family. Has anyone unfortunately dealt with this and successfully received an email from RCCL confirming you canceled your cruise? After all, RCCL sends me a cancelation email when I cancel the drink package, or an excursion, or the internet, or a specialty restaurant. Why can they not send me an email canceling the actual cruise? Thanks so much for you advice Elise
  7. Thanks everyone for your quick responses. I thought we didn't need a pre-cruise covid test but I just wanted to be sure.
  8. Based on RCCL's Health update this past week, am I right in that we don't need a negative pre-cruise COVID test before traveling to the Bahamas and CoCoCay? We are vaccinated and boosted but I can't tell whether we need to do a pre-cruise COVID test if we are only going to the Bahamas and CoCoCay. TIA
  9. I have no idea...This was my first time using the spa services
  10. I had a gel manicure last month on our Viking Sea Mediterranean Odyssey. I booked as soon as I got on board the ship. Rachel, who did my mani, was fantastic. The cost was about $100 plus tip. Like you said considering how much the cruise cost, the mani was not out of line. Plus I'm worth it as I'm sure you are too 🙂
  11. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner last Thanksgiving on Mariner
  12. We did this tour when we were on a TA a few years ago (preCovid). It was great.
  13. I flew out of LHR Terminal 3 a few days ago. It was a zoo. We had 3 1/2 hours and we needed 3 hours of it. Lots of lines to go through. But the reward is great duty free shopping!
  14. We will be in Venice two days before our August cruise. The first day we plan to recuperate from jet lag and wander around St. Marks Square. I'd like to book a tour of Venice or around Venice (Murano?) the second day. We usually use Italy Tours for Italy but they don't do any tours in Venice. What tour group would you recommend for either a more extensive tour of St. Marks Square (inside St. Marks and Doge Palace) and/ or Murano or even something else close to Venice? Thanks, Elise
