Further update, after contacting SS today to try and find out where my reimbursement was, since their form letter to my submisstion to guest relations indicated that they would contact me by Monday and of course no word yet, I was finally told that my TA would need to submit the reimbursement to the exact same email address that the Future Sales Director, who knew I worked with a TA, told me to send the request to. Of course, no word for why I wasn't contacted about this, or the fact that my TA was both copied on the email and referenced in the letter.

When did you make the request?

Looks like the Moon is finally back on track again. Has anybody from the Jan 6 sailing had any communication from Silversea regarding the reimbursement on incurred travel expenses or the FCC that is supposed to be given as a result of the trip's disruptions?

Ugh. My Covid experience in 2022 was pretty horrendous, from the handling on the ship to the customer service after. If it had been June 2020, then i would have understood what I had to go through but it was September 2022, almost 2.5 years after the pandemic. They eventually made good on the situation but it took months.

have you submitted your expenses yet?

has anybody heard any communication from Silversea regarding reimbursement of travel expenses associated with the itinerary change or the Future Cruise Credit?

Have you already fully paid for all of those cruises? Maybe you can apply the FCC to the ones you already have?

Just exited the Suez Canal. Definitely an interesting trip and a small consolation for skipping the other ports.

Yes, now going directly to Athens to disembark on the 16th. Waiting for clearance to go through the Suez right now.

Letters at the door this morning that the ship is now headed to Athens. I guess once you’ve decided that the ship can’t go through the Gulf of Aden, no need to “waste” time in the Red Sea.

The original version of the Jan 6 segment was a 10 day Aqaba to Aqaba with multiple stops in Egypt instead of Salalah and Muscat. People who had booked this trip have already been compensated when the trip was changed to end in Muscat, so yes, those people are now getting something close to what they originally booked. Still uncertainty though about the change in travel plans for returning home after the trip ends.

Both island excursions in SA cancelled due to “ lack of interest”.

The website I suggested - you tell them what country you need a visa for and they make it the appropriate size.

I ended up using https://visafoto.com/ to get the photo to upload correctly . It was very fast , but costs $7 per person.
