  1. We flew home from Barcelona to the UK last year - the journey to the airport doesn't take long - I think poss 20 mins. The downside flying from Barcelona for us was the huge amount of people in the queue at check in & then a free for all to get through immigration - it was a shambles. We were less than impressed but may be it was a one off.

  2. I always take Sea Bands just incase I feel sick - never had to use them until our last cruise when we hit the side of a hurricane. I thought I would give them a try as didn't want to go down the meds route.....they were amazing!! I felt so much better. I knew they were working because as soon as I took them off to have a shower I started to feel queasy again - put them straight back on and hey presto!

  3. Our favourite pre dinner watering hole is the Passport Bar and it could get quite busy!

    If the Gastro Pub is in the same place does that mean it will be far too busy to enjoy a pre dinner drink?

    Have they increased the size of the Passport Bar to accommodate the Gastro Bar?

    From what I have seen the Gastro Pub serves food - does that still happen in the evenings?

  4. Thanks for your replies - that is what I was hoping for. The only time we had a connecting cabin (internal) the couple adjoining our cabin were constantly having loud arguments late into the night - it was probably a one off situation but I don't want to risk it.

    Happy to book a connecting cabin with external doors.

    Appreciate your help in putting my mind at rest

  5. Thanks guys! Because of Cruise Critic I kept of an eye on the price!

     

    We rang them as the price had dropped even more since I posted (£600 overall). So they actually advised on the phone to cancel and rebook. Forfeited our £25pp deposit and banked a £550 saving, and they also threw in $100 OBC. So overall very happy! 😀

     

    Well Done - kind of give you a warm fuzzy feeling when that happens:)

  6. The same thing happened on our cruise so I gave RCI a call but didn't get anywhere - they said they don't do that sort of thing but they would ask the revenue dept ...never heard back from them!!. I could have cancelled & rebooked but when I next checked the prices they had gone up and I wouldn't have been saving enough to go through starting a new booking. Strangely enough just last week I got an email from RCI asking if we would be interested in upgrading to a GS!!! I have no idea why we should have been offered an upgrade but we jumped at the chance as we would never be able to afford a GS cabin under normal circumstances.

  7. We are sailing on the Indy - It's been a while since we sailed with RCI but the last time I seem to remember that there was a separate sun deck for suite guests - I used to see them go up stairs to it - is it still there or am I thinking of another ship?? I don't mean the tiered sun beds right by the pool

  8. Well - I had every hope that after clicking on the triangle that my posts would be reinstated but no such luck - it has been way over 24 hours now:( I see a few people have posted the same problem in the Bugs & glitches section so I added a comment that I'm also having the same problem - doesn't look as if anything has been done about it.

    It is soo annoying as I'm the one of our Roll Call who is doing the Roll Call Names list & have some more names to add.

    Does anyone have any other suggestions on how to reinstate my posts - not sure what to do next.

  9. I had this happen on our roll call too.

     

    Here's what I did. I clicked on the triangle on the last post and stated that this post wasn't showing up. In an hour or so the Host fixed the problem.

     

    Thanks for the info - really appreciate it. I've never paid much attention to the Triangle before.

    When you say click the triangle on the 'Last' post - I'm guessing you mean the last post that did actually show up
