Thank you, I’ll make a note for our cruise in October

Bremenkat, did you obtain your test kit from Chronomics? If not where did you get it please. TIA

Not having any joy at the moment.  Just tried the number and got a recorded message about cancelling or re-booking appointments  in North Wales, (I am in Mid Wales ),  and saying the booking team cannot respond to questions but giving an email address for a help-desk.  So I will email and hope I get somewhere.

Sorry Michele I didn’t realise the number I posted was only for North Wales 😒 Good to hear you’ve got it sorted though. Hope you have a great cruise 🛳

Just wondering if anyone else from Wales is wondering how we will provide vaccine proof. I’ve had both jabs and in Wales we don’t have the same info on the app that applies to England. 
 

There is a number to call if you need a certificate but the system only shows one jab for me and despite about ten phone calls they can’t seem to sort this issue out.

 

I fear I may have to cancel just because I can’t prove I have had both jabs except on the little card you get

Hi Broooce I received an invite for my Covid jab in the post today, even though I’d had both my jabs. I called the number on the letter to cancel the new appointment and was told that my 1st jab hadn’t been recorded on the system. The person on the phone asked me to provide the batch number of my 1st jab and she then updated the system. The batch number should be on the card you were given.

The number to call to have the system updated is 0300 084 0004 which is different to the one you call to get the certificate. The above number is open until 6pm Mon-Fri and until 1pm Sat &Sun. Hope this helps.

I have just had a call from my TA re my cancelled cruise on the 21st April. They called to say the refund has been requested from Marella and they asked if I wanted to rebook with Marella (Marella will give £200 per adult) or another cruise company (TA only deals in cruises). I asked for a full refund and the agent said "no problem" it will be processed asap.

MX-Drew did you receive your refund yet. We were booked on this same cruise and our TA is advising we won’t receive our refund until 60-90 days from requesting. We requested about the same time as you.

Thanks

They open Three hours before but you can still queue before that especially good to get first in the queue if you haven't booked your seats and haven't checked in online so you can choose your seats BUT I believe most people check in online If you haven't paid to select your seats they are issued one week before departure by checking in online

Thank you that is very helpful 😄

If your luggage is bonded from Manchester you join the check in queue for the cruise and a TUI Rep will put a label with your cabin number on your cases whilst in the queue Make sure you're in the Cruise queue for the flight You should be told this as you approach the check in desk queues as there are a lot of desks open. You won't see your cases again until they are placed outside your cabin. We have flown from Manchester many times and have not used Day before check in and not sure they do it but check in is usually very quick.

Vitalsign - do you know how soon before the flight the check in desk opens please. We are flying out in April to Jamaica and need to plan what time to leave home for Manchester. Thanks

Thank you SadmanCruiser and Heidi13 for your responses. Yes we will be on Spectrum OTS and just stopping in Oman for 1 day.  Unfortunately there is a lot of conflicting info on line, and I didn’t want to risk issues by going onboard without the necessary visas. From your replies I’ll now stop fretting 😉

Can anyone from the UK who has recently visited Oman advise if they needed to obtain a visa before travelling.  I’ve asked this question to both Royal Caribbean and Visa Central (CIBT) but their responses have not answered the question.

Thanks Carole

Problems/comments: During our cruise which sailed on 22/04 we experienced an intermittent loud knocking and whining noise. It sounded like air in the pipes and came from beneath the cabin, causing vibration on the floor. It occurred at various times in the day or night, both at sea and in port. We complained and X did the right thing by moving us to another cabin.
